US$85 each. DWA-140 has intermittent dc problems but this one is rock solid

I did study the additional features of DIR-855 but don't really need them. What I want is a fast and stable router/switch for file transfer and web surfing (& for my eldest son to play online games).

How far away is yours from the router ?

I had one connected to my HTPC which is 1 floor down. Connection speed was 130Mbps but it suffers from intermittent dc's (which will auto re-connect again within 15 seconds but it is quite irritating)

No such problem after switching to DWA-160.

ah... I see... mine's about 8 meters away. Connection speed fluctuates between 103mbps and 130mpbs (but typically between 117mbps and 130mbps).
Current firmware version is 1.1

It'll be quite interesting to test it at further distances.
