Recommendation for End-of-Support/End-of-Life Products

From time to time, D-Link will decide that some of its products have reached End of Support ("EOS") / End of Life (“EOL”). D-Link may choose to EOS/EOL an effect due to the evolution of technology, market demands, innovations, and product efficiencies based on new technologies, or the product matures over time. It should be replaced by functionally superior technology.

For US Consumers   If a product has reached End of Support ("EOS") / End of Life ("EOL"), there is usually no further extended support or development for it. Typically, for these products, D-Link will be unable to resolve device or firmware issues since all development and customer support has ceased.

D-Link US prohibits supporting these EOL/EOS products; if you are outside the US, please get in touch with your regional D-Link office. If your device was provided by a licensed carrier (service provider) and matching firmware, don’t hesitate to contact your carrier (service provider). Many devices on this list have available 3rd party open-firmware, D-Link does not support open-firmware, which voids any warranty and is solely the responsibility of the device's owner.

D-Link strongly recommends that this product be retired and cautions that any further use may be risky to connected devices. If US consumers continue to use these devices against D-Link's recommendation, please ensure the device has the latest firmware, which can be located on the Legacy Website links above. Please ensure you frequently update the device's unique password to access its web configuration and always have WIFI encryption enabled with a unique password.
