Well, when I purchased it (over 12 months ago) I have to say that it sucked. The unit itself is great and reliable, but the software D-link delivers with it (to detect it on your network) sucked. I know there have been several firmware updates since then, so I'd suggest trying one and returning it if/when it sucks as much as it did when I tested it.

Stuff like this evolves, some products become really good after a few firmware upgrades, others stay terrible so I can't comment on this one.
