Hands-on review – D-Link G415 AX1500 4G Smart Router
Overall, my only wish regarding this unit – and it is a wish, not a critique – is that it would be a bit smaller and the aerials were more integrated. It’s not a lot of fun to carry in a full backpack if you happen to put it near the back of the bag. I ended up repurposing an old padded camera bag to act as the portable home for this device, and that works very well for me indeed.

Overall, this is a good kit for those who have a small apartment or unit and want to ensure the WiFi reaches into both the bedroom and bathroom so that they are always able to check their instasocialbook at a moment’s notice. For larger dwellings, a larger kit would be better suited – aim for something with at least 4000ax on the box.
Overall, this is the first real USB WiFi-6 network adaptor, and it’s very good, but I can bet you it won’t be the last. I fully expect to see D-Link release a new model within the next year or so, probably with a smaller form or something extra added in.
D-Link A/NZ launches affordable 10 Gigabit Smart Managed Switches with high port counts and 25GE support.
The series – which includes a router, a 2-piece and 3-piece mesh network plus a stand-alone range extender, combines intuitive Wi-Fi 6 and mesh technology with powerful AI to deliver expanded and continuously-optimised connectivity to homes and small offices.
Overall, this is a great router to consider if you want, or need, to upgrade your home network with something that has some level of future-proofing in it. The only slight drawback for me was the lack of a USB port on this unit…
Overall, this is a welcome evolution of the technology, and it looks to be somewhat future-ready too, as devices that support the 2.5Gbps data rate are still slowly reaching the average-consumer marketspace.
Overall, for the price, this punches way above its weight class. With all the features of far more expensive peers, and supporting the newest WPA3 security protocols, this is peace of mind in a discrete black jellybean.
