Excellent 5GHz and Multi-User Multiple Input, Multiple Output (MU-MIMO) throughput, Fast file-transfer speeds, Unique design, Highly configurable, Attractive design,
Expensive, Large footprint
The D-Link AC5300 Ultra Wi-Fi Router (DIR-895L/R) is a slick-looking, fully loaded tri-band router that delivers some of the fastest scores we've seen in throughput and file-transfer tests...
Upgradeable antennas, Similar wireless performance to other AC5300 products
MUMIMO barely works, Wireless bridging not supported
The days of tri-radio routers may be numbered, folks. Now that NETGEAR has stepped into the multi-AP "whole home" Wi-Fi system game with Orbi, you can be sure Linksys and eventually D-Link and TP-LINK won't be far behind. With prices in about the same $30...
Abstract: One look at the D-Link AC5300 router gives people one of two reactions: this is really cool looking, or wow, this looks like a big, dead petrified spider.Whatever your reaction is when seeing this router, we can tell you it doesn't change how well it does...

The first thing you notice about the D-Link DIR-895L is without a doubt its bold design with eight thick antennas, and the angular and metallic red elements. If you look a bit closer, however, you will see a router that brings together all the modern rout...
Cool and futuristic hardware design, Decent wireless coverage and performance, Simple software and configuration
No LED indicators for LAN ports, USB ports doesn't support USB modem, Router configuration not centralized, Price could be lower
The D-Link DIR-895L is an extremely powerful router that could easily handle a busy small office or household network with its great wireless performance, coupled with a straightforward software and configuration that doesn't overwhelm a user, this is a g...
Very fast internal transfers speeds, Useful features
Price
Easily one of the best all-rounder on the market in terms of performance. The price for it is steep, but can be well worth it if you need features like the iQoS and MU-MIMO.(previously published in issue December 2016)...
Our routine test setup includes a desktop PC, the reviewed router, and a laptop to simulate a wireless home network. The desktop system takes on the role of a host machine, while the router acts as a gateway. And lastly, an external Wireless 802.11ac adap...
Triband AC5300 WiFi speeds, Smartphone and cloudbased router management
Web management interface lacks advanced controls for power users
If you're a very heavy Wi-Fi user, you should be able to appreciate the DIR-895L's capabilities and performance in your home network. The refreshed, modernised, web administration interface, as well as smartphone-based mydlink app, makes it easy to manage...
This tri-band router is useful for homes with numerous Wi-Fi devices. But its performance is middling, and the typical home user will probably just use a fraction of its features...
