These are good routers. I bought the DIR-868L when it went on sale at Memory Express during their boxing week sale:

Great router, loving the dual band. Only thing that has surprised me a bit is I also got Apple TV for Christmas so I attached it to the 5Ghz band. Doesn't get a strong connection. I realize that 5Ghz can't pass through walls as well as 2.4 but I also put my iPad on the 5Ghz and it has full signal in the same room as the Apple TV.

Maybe I just need to try moving it around a bit.

Reviews on this line of routers weren't great but they seem to think that after a firmware upgrade they could be pretty impressive. Not sure why the bad reveiws though tbh, I've had no issues with mine at all.
