Can this router be used with a fiber optic network?

As long are you connecting via CAT5/6 cable Integrated 4-Port Gigabit Switch and the WAN port is Gigabit I run Tomato Firmware from http://tomato.groov.pl/ Tomato Firmware 1.28.0000 MIPSR2-111 K26 USB Big-VPN

Yes. It is designed to handle considerable network traffic. Very effective dual band router. I have more devices than you are listing on my network and have no latency issues.

Possibly, If your router is linux and has dial up support, you can plug this modem into the USB port of your router and the router can bridge the dial up connection to the wifi lan of your router. Check out this one.. http://www.greatarbor.com/products.html#GAC-252

I use it in conjunction with a 1st router. So if this is what you mean, the answer is yes.

It has one WAN port which provides broadband access via xDSL/Ethernet/Cable. If the output from your fiber optic modem is compatible with xDSL/Ethernet/Cable, then it should work. I have used it successfully with a DSL modem running in bridge mode.

Correct. The configuration is a bit complicated, but it's a fantastic router with great features if you know how to set it up.

This device should have no issues working with any router or switch that has a gigabit ethernet port. The connection between the router and the modem is by ethernet. With that in mind, unless there is new technology in the D-Link WAN port, there should be no issues.

I am sorry, I do not know the answer to that question. You will have to call the manufacturer of your router and ask them that question.

Not when I installed it. However, I found this router to be highly unreliable and stopped using it.

No, you cannot use this as a router. as all have said below. it is mainly used, as others have stated, to increase how many devices you can plug into your intranet and internet.

It's my understanding that it can be installed on any router, however, I would not buy this again because it only provided a miniscule improvement on my system

Simple answer is yes. It gets to be a question of just how portable you need your router to be.

No. It is my understanding that it only uses the ethernet cable's copper to transmit the HDMI signal. It does not use any networking protocols. A router would not know what to do with this traffic, and would probably freak out or even damage your equipment.

Yes it can be. You will have to clamp it or screw it to the router table of your choice.

Yes, I have a similar configuration now. You'll need one non-poe port to hook to the router which will be your uplink. Then, you can use the extra non-poe ports for whatever you want.

Yes, it can be connected to either a switch or router port as long as it is a PoE (Power over Ethernet) port. In fact, in my house I have AP321's deployed in each case to Cisco layer2 switch and a Cisco ISR router.

Yes. I've hooked mine up to both an AT&T 2Wire and two different Netgear routers. No problems connectivity wise. Note that some ISPs do block certain ports so additional configuration may be required for all services to be accessible outside the local network.
