A support date is not a safety certificate or proof of the last patch. Check installed software separately; an unknown date does not establish that support has ended.
What this status means for DIR-803 RevA
DIR-803 RevA is past the recorded Mar 2016 security-support point. This does not mean the device immediately stops working, but newly discovered issues may no longer receive manufacturer fixes under the cited commitment.
What this DIR-803 RevA record covers
This page is bounded to the recorded identity DIR-803 and the All Regions evidence scope. Dates and repair facts are not transferred to a similarly named carrier, regional or hardware variant unless its identifiers are explicitly covered by the cited source.
DIR-816L RevB, DIR-820LW RevB, DIR-845L share the same recorded release and security-support horizon. Those products remain separate because their marketed identity and model boundary differ; a shared policy date is not evidence that firmware, recalls or repair records are interchangeable. The release-to-support interval is not calculated because an approved release date is unavailable.
No exact EPREL registration is approved for this record, so DevLifeCheck does not borrow an EU repairability score or battery result from a related model.

Sale and cloud-service evidence
- End of sale
- Not documented · Not yet reviewed
- Cloud-service end
- Not documented · No reviewed date
“Not documented” means DevLifeCheck has no approved value for this field. A lifecycle-policy review never authorizes copying or inferring a firmware version or another lifecycle date.
Identity and regional scope
- Marketed name
- DIR-803 RevA
- Primary model identifier
- DIR-803
- Evidence scope
- All Regions
This record is not a universal “global variant.” Match the model number, sales market and carrier before applying a date to your phone. A materially different variant must receive its own reviewed lifecycle evidence.
How the support date was determined
The affected-model summary identifies the hardware revision, region and end-of-support date. D-Link states these EOL/EOS products no longer receive security updates. Affected vulnerable firmware versions are not treated as the latest available firmware.

Latest firmware or patch
No exact model-and-region firmware or patch version has been independently verified for this record. DevLifeCheck will not infer it from a lifecycle-policy page.
Recall and safety screening
DevLifeCheck monitors CPSC, Safety Gate, UK OPSS, Health Canada. A monitored feed is not itself a “no recall” finding; dated device-specific results are listed separately below.
No claim of “no recall” is made for this model. Check the linked regulator for your market using the marketed name and exact model identifier shown above.
Repairability and battery
No model-specific repairability score or official battery-service cutoff has been reviewed for this record yet. Check the manufacturer's regional repair channel before buying parts or assuming service availability.
Each card shows only the facts published by its cited source. Do not compare iFixit scores, manufacturer playback estimates and EU-label measurements as if they used the same test.
Update cadence
Cadence not documented — not inferred from end date.
Known limitations and conflicts
Policy dates can conflict with carrier schedules, regional product-security statements and the exact hardware variant. No additional conflict has been approved for this record; that means “not documented,” not “none exist.”
Repair or replace factors
D-Link recommends replacing these end-of-support products. Match the model and hardware revision on the label before applying the advisory.
- Support horizon: security support is recorded through Mar 2016.
- Evidence certainty: this is a official end of support record with exact day.
- Software visibility: the latest model/region-specific firmware is not yet documented, so it is not used as a positive signal.
- Repair data: no comparable model-specific repairability record is approved yet, so repair cost and parts availability must be checked separately.
Longer-supported catalog records
These records have a later documented security-support horizon. Same-brand records are preferred when the catalog has enough matches. Price, form factor and availability are not yet compared, so these are not purchase recommendations.
DIR-803 RevA: common questions
How long will DIR-803 RevA get security updates?
DIR-803 RevA has passed its recorded security-support date (Mar 1, 2016). This date comes directly from the manufacturer.
Is it safe to keep using DIR-803 RevA after Mar 1, 2016?
DIR-803 RevA can keep working after Mar 1, 2016. A policy-derived date does not prove updates have stopped. If the manufacturer has ended support for your exact model, new security flaws may stay unfixed; keep apps updated and plan a supported replacement for sensitive use.
Does this date apply to every DIR-803 RevA model and region?
This record covers model DIR-803 in the All Regions scope. Carrier and regional variants can receive updates at different times, so match your exact model number before relying on it.
