When I unboxed the D-link DIR-685 that D-Link sent me to check out, someone messaged me on Live Messenger and said, “The DIR-685 is overkill”. I laughed and thought about it. It does have a lot of features that a router doesn’t really need...such as a digital photo frame, the ability to display my local news and weather.

So maybe they are right, maybe it the DIR-685 is overkill. But as Mike Mason one of the forum members here at HardwareGeeks said “Nothing in Technology can be overkill”

When companies like D-Link design a product, their designers try to design a product that will be of use to its user now and in the future and I think the D-Link DIR-685 is indeed the type of router that was designed with the future in mind.
