Belkin Routers :: F5d7230-4 / Would Updating Wireless G Improve Performance
Jan 29, 2013
I'm using a wireless g router (f5d7230-4) which for most purposes is fine? Specifically: 1. I can't seem to stream media content from my windows 7 pc to my lg tv (model 55 lw 6500), and wonder if the age of the router is part of the problem; 2. some iptv channels on my ps3 are slow to load menus, though programs run fine when I push play (I gather ps3 is restricted to wireless g but if I upgraded the router I would plug in the ps3 using cat6). When I speed test my internet connection I'll typically get results around 2.5-5 Mbps. I'm impressed that a router of this age performs so well it isn't obvious to me that upgrading will improve the setup.

Can I use my F5D7230-4 as an access point? I need to provide a hardwired ethernet connection to my A/V reciever but not have a wired port in the area of my house. I have an existing wireless router thru Century Link. Could I have the Belkin attach itself to the wireless network and then have a cat 5 come out of one of the four ports to connect my A/V reciever to the network?

I have a Belkin G router F5D7230-4 (firmware version 8.01.07) and am trying to view stats on what is using our connection.We have a very low capacity, rural wireless broadband that our ISP tells us is maxed out all the time, even when we don't appear to be using any devices, so I'd like to view the traffic on our DHCP client list to see which device is using an excessive amount of bandwith and put a limit on its access.I don't see a statistics tab on the setup page, is there another place to look or does Belkin have an external program to do this?

I am trying to use f5d7230-4 v6000 to connect my TV and Playstation to my home WLAN, but cannot set up the router to receive the signal from the base station (FRITZ!Box). Is it possible at all to use f5d7230-4 v6000 for such function?

I am running "PLEX Media server" on a PC and have a "Roku" client working perfectly on my home network
I am trying to use the "My PLEX" feature of "PLEX" to stream my content to the internet and access it on a Nook or iPod from any internet hot spot. This requires that the router supports DLNA. I am not sure what this is and am not successful at this so far.
Although it may sound like I know what I'm talking about I am at my limit and do not know how to determine if my router will support DLNA.
Is it time to get a new router or is there something I need to do to the router so it supports DLNA?

I've recently acquired a Linksys E1200 router--which is more than a week old--from the recommendation of a friend of mine. The service is great and all, but the one thing that frequently bothers me is the seeming constant instability of my router's model. There are moments when the router performs smoothly, but there is as much an instance because the router doesn't seem to work at all even when the lights (and the accompanying connection) on my modem seem to be working in good order.
I know that a router will always have its problems, but this is really a constant problem with the E1200; and if so, if there's any way possible on how I can be able to "stabilize" the said router's performance.

I read the sticky related to firmware updates. I have a DIR-655, that has been been giving me good service for quite a few years. I subscribe to the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" philosophy as I have managed to keep my home network and computers running over the years, but I'm not knowledgable in these matters. I am still running firmware 1.10, and have not wanted to take a chance that if I upgraded I would find myself with numerous devices with no connectivity (running mix of Mac and PC desktops and laptops, XBox, Wii, Roku box, numerous iPhones and iPods, LG TV, and an iPad).
Recently I moved to the cable company phone, and they added a new modem. They have it set as a gateway (I think that is the terminology), and my network works basically as it did before. I have noticed though, that my Roku box, laptops, and skype on my Mac desktop seem to be having periods of slower download (Roku box), skype choppiness, and download that stop. I was thinking that perhaps if I upgraded the firmware, my performance might improve. After reading the sticky, it seems like firmware may not be the answer. This is a reliable but older piece of equipment, and now I'm thinking that I just need to upgrade to a newer and perhaps more advanced router.

I have done all the resets, factory resets, hard resets, and any other names. When I attempt to enter any sort of IP addresses,default Belkins and ones I see when viewing ipconfig, all it does is perform a Google Search with the numbers.Again, turning on wireless on my laptop and phone fail to find my router, which used to just be called "Belkin".Here is all the info that I believe you need:
IP- Comcast
Modem-Cisco DPC3008
Router - Belkin F5d7230-4 V1444 (althought a little old, have never had major issues untill a couple days ago)
Windows IP Configuration
Host Name . . . . . . . . . . . . : JBerman-Win7
Primary Dns Suffix . . . . . . . : mmreibc.prv
Node Type . . . . . . . . . . . . : Hybrid

Is there any way to clear the archived DHCP list on the Belkin F5D7230-4 wireless router? Over the years there have been a lot of connections, most are no longer around but the Belkin holds on to the list. I can find no way to clear it to get it back to what is currently connected. I have tried a soft reboot, unplugging power etc but it seems like I will have to do a factory reset and apart from not being able to find my ADSL login details, I would have to reset all my settings.

how to set up a Belkin F5D7230-4 6000 router as a wifi access point. My home set up is the following: Dell Desktop connected by Lan to a Telefonica/Movistar router (I live in Spain), Dell portable .. connected by wifi at the other end of the house ..saying it's portable is a bit of a joke .. it's old and moving it is not an option ! Problem is I don't get much wifi signal on the portable to be able to do anything at all online so after googling on how to increase wifi signal .. worked out that I could set up an access point.. and owning a belkin router have been trying to set it up although I think there is something
I've connected the belkin by cable to the portable and disabled the DCHP and clicked on set up as an access point, set up wifi security and password, but when i am trying to reset the IP address I end up having to reset the router and start all over again.

I run my virgin broadband through an old NTL modem and a Belkin router. I haveit all attached to a computer in my study along with a new 6TB Buffalo Nas drive. The computer has GIGABIT LAN. I use Belkin powerline units to relay the network around the house. In my lounge i have a blu ray player, AV amp and my sky box attached to the network via the Belkin powerline units and all run ok. This week i have added a Cambridge audio streamer but i am suffering now from a lot of dropouts and network failures escpecially when trying to stream music from my NAS. all seem to be set up correctly as per the manuals. I have spent a lot on this unit specificallly to stream my music so this is really important to get working correctly The powerline units can flash blue (fast ) or orange (slower) but i only see the orange light .My local dealer says i need to upgrade my Modem/Router and has suggested an ASUS RT-N66U which I understand is a modern 2.5/5ghz model . he says my system is overloaded
A few questions.
Is this a suitable modem for me to use on my Virgin cable broadband? (apparently there are two alternatives types of modem/router)
Is there a better alternative unit ?
Could there be another cause for my problems and if so how do i diagnose them ?

We have recently purchased an RV082 router for our company. I have successfully managed to establish a VPN connection through PPTP and through Quick VPN (IPSEC?)
When i am connected through PPTP my software SIP client has 0.5% packet loss which is totally acceptable. When i am connected through Quick VPN my software SIP client has a 50-70% packet loss.
i have done the following settings on the router: Bandwidth Management:
High Priority for upstream and downstream UDP 10001-20000 and UDP 5060-5080
Wan Connection settings: MTU: 1492 bytes
I would like to know if there are any other settings that will improve VOIP over Quick VPN since RV082 supports 100 connections compared to 5 for PPTP.

I just installed a new Synology DS212j NAS behind an old Belkin F5D7230-4 wireless router (probably from 2006) on my home network. The wifi network uses WPA-TKIP with a strong password but otherwise has no security. The NAS is connected to the router with cat5. The NAS is setup with a couple password-protected shares (accounts setup on the NAS) that the Windows 7 PCs on the wifi network can access.
Since the NAS and router will be on 24/7, what else do I need to do to ensure that the NAS is secure?

I purchased 2 RV042's (h/w version 3) less than two months ago. I updated them to the latest firmware (v4.0.4.02-tm (Jul 4 2011 13:30:56)), did a factory reset to make sure I was working with a clean slate, set up DDNS through DynDNS and a site to site VPN between the two. Everything was working great for a month, then the DynDNS accounts expired because they weren't being updated. I reactivated the names on the DynDNS site, and started to monitor the "last updated" date and time. After 24 hours there were no updates according to the DynDNS site. I logged into one of the RV042's, and it said "Dyndns Enabled : Dynamic DNS is updated successfully." This is a stale message from 24 hours ago when I hit save. So I went into Setup | Dynamic DNS | Edit Config and there it also says "Dynamic DNS is updated successfully." I clicked "Save", status changed to " Dyndns Enabled : Updating..." for a few seconds, and then back to "Dyndns Enabled : Dynamic DNS is updated successfully". I refreshed the DynDNS website and it shows the current time (in eastern time, i'm pacfic) as the last time it was updated. So it works when I manually hit the "Save" button. Not making any changed, just hitting "Save". I've let the other RV042 go over 48 hours and it still hasn't updated. So it apears for the time being, I'll have to remember to push the "Save" button once a week to prevent my DynDNS accout from expiring. Does DDNS working in the lastest firmware and h/w version 3? If so, what is the update frequency?

I have two of the Wrvs 4400n V2 VPN (V2.0.2.1-ETSI) routers in different countries, one in the UK and one in Australia. They are permanently linked using the IPSec VPN tunnel and the dynamic DNS feature (DynDNS.org). I have found that the router in the UK does not update its IP address automatically to the dns website when the UK Internet service provider changes the WAN IP of this router. This makes the IPSEC tunnel go down until I telephone the UK location and ask to force the router to update its IP address with dyndns by restarting it or by using the routers configuration to re-save the password for dynamic dns.

I have a Cisco rv220w. I just tried updating the firmware. I used RV220W-Firmware-1.0.3.5.img. It rebooted, and now there is no DHCP and no access to anything. I tried the reset button for 10 seconds. That didn't do anything. The WAN and all the LAN lights light up. Power is on and solid. The light blinks alternating between the DMZ and the blank space to the right of wireless. How can I get this back to factory defaults?

If your wireless indicator is flashing red when you discover the smurf, it can mean that someone has tried to logon with an incorrect password. this is not necessarily an attack, it could be someone you have allowed access too, who has forgotten the password? In this case entering the correct password will solve the problem.However putting your own MAC address into the filter will simply block your own machine.

It took me some time to get the load balancing (RV042 V3, v4.0.4.02-tm) working (my provider ist not returning any packets by the gateway ip on a ping). No I am ruinning into a performance issue. After activating PrtotectLink it takes a few hours or one or two days and the RV042 is reacting very slow. I need to reboot the RV042 and everything is ok again for some time ....Deactivating ProtectLink does not work only rebooting speeds the system up again.ProtectLink ist useless this way, anything I can do to get ProtectLink working?

I have an RV042 VPN tunnel with an RV082.The RV042 has a public IP Address obtained by PPPoE, the RV082 has a public IP Address obtained via Static IP.The problem I see is a really slow performance. Both internet conections are idle and the performance is about 2 or 3 kbyte/s My question are if I should I enable any of this:
- Agresive mode
- NAT Traversal
- IP Compresion
- Dead Pear Detection
How can I troubleshot this slow performance?

I have 2 RV042 routers with identical firmware (1.3.13.02-tm) and settings. One router is a backup that sits in a box, but both experience this problem. The WAN port gives very poor performance most of the time. Download speeds range from normal, 25mb, to less than .5mb. Pings from my command prompt or the routers "Diagnostic" page, even to the cable modem, are almost always above 500ms. However, pings to internal resources are fast, usually under 5ms. If I connect my laptop directly to the cable modem I have no speed issues. The problem occurs whether I use WAN1 or WAN2.
If I restart the router, speeds are fine for a few seconds and then it begins to slow down like someone is turning down a dial. We also regularly experience a complete internet disconnect quite often, and when it happens, the ping results are the same when it comes back up, almost like the router is restarting itself. [code]

My dad uses 2 modems, somehow they connect the whole house to the internet wireless. We all use laptops and 2 xboxs' but sometimes the connection will dip, not often but sometimes. Do you think this is my wireless adapter in my laptop or because of the use of modems to open up a wireless network?I was thinking about buying a router and just connecting it to the modem to maybe improve the connection. Suggestions? I really do not know the configuration my dad did for this network, the only thing I know is he uses modems not routers which is pretty strange.
