D-Link DAP-1522 :: IPv6 Router Advertisements Appear To Be Dropped Or Filtered

Mar 30, 2012

I am having trouble with a DAP-1522 in AP mode dropping IPv6 packets.  It is running in AP mode to supply connectivity to a number of laptops + a 2nd DAP-1522 in bridge mode. The laptops are able to get IPv6 router advertisements from the same wired network the DAP-1522 is plugged into, but they get nothing when connection to the wireless.   Tcpdump sees no router adv's coming over the wireless interfaces when sniffing.This appears to be something others have hit as well url...

D-link Dir-655 :: Mac Filtering - Only Want Wifi Filtered / Not Wired Lan Nodes

Mar 19, 2011

All 3 previous wireless routers I've had were all LinkSys routers and I had to overcome a learning curve since configuring this DIR-655 is slightly different..What I want to do is allow only the WiFi MAC addresses that I choose to access the network. It seems to me that in order to accomplish this I have to include all of my wired LAN devices' MAC filters as well. I can see having MAC filtering for WiFi devices, however why do I need to add my wired LAN devices MAC addresses?  I'm not going to allow just anyone to walk into my home off the street and plug a computer into the network via CAT-5 ethernet cable, so isn't there a way to accomplish just the WiFi allow list and the heck with the wired nodes?  The LinkSys routers I used in the past allowed me to allow the MAC filter for WiFi devices only.  Is there a way around having to allow all MAC's and just allowing the wifi's?

D-Link DAP-1522 :: Using As A Bridge With WNDR3700 Router?

May 20, 2011

I've been playing with this setup for over a month with no real success.  I'm trying to use the DAP-1522 as a wireless bridge to provide connectivity to my entertainment center which consist of a PS3, Directv DVR and Internet ready TV.  I tried the setup as described in the manual, but not getting to the internet.  Initially I was able to connect the 1522 as a bridge, but the connection kept dropping, especially anytime I actually used the internet (downloading a VOD movie).  While troubleshooting the dropping issue, I changed all the 1522 settings and now it cannot access the internet at all through.  The WNDR3700 is routing my home network fine...it is setup on the 192.168.1.x address space.  I understand the 1522 came setup for 192.168.0.x, is the 192.168.1.x/192.168.0.x thing jacking things up?  I initially had the 1522 setup with the 192.168.1.x IP from my home network and the gateway set to my WNDR3700 (192.168.1.1)...should it be on the 192.168.0.x?  I have updated the firmware to 1.31.

D-Link DAP-1522 :: How To Setup This Router With Asus RT-N56U

Sep 2, 2012

I use to have a DIR-655 and dap-1522 both worked without any issues. I recently upgraded to Asus RT-n56u and now I want to setup the dap-1522 with it.I have no issues with the Asus RT-n56u everything seems to work fine here the problem seems to be with the dap-1522 where it connects but then disconnects almost instantly.

1) Connect dap-1522 with my desktop computer via Ethernet

2) Change the LAN settings for tcp/ip v4 to manual IP

3) I set the manual IP to 192.168.0.60/ subnet mask 255.255.255.0 and the default gateway to 192.168.0.50

4) I open my web browser and connect to 192.168.0.50 and I see the dlink page and I log in fine.

5)I tried going through the wizard, picked manual and have tried both the 2.4ghz and 5.0ghz bands they are set up as WPA-Auto Personal and I enter in my password. It says settings will be saved

6) The page refreshes to the wireless one but I don't see any options here just the save config one. When I go to status sometimes it says its connected but sometimes it just says it's not I try to unplug from my desktop and take it over to where my apple tv is but it never works..One thing I should note is my asus is connected to 192.168.1.X so do I need to change the dap-1522 to 192.168.1.50? instead of 0.50?

D-Link DIR-655 :: Extending Wireless Range Of Router - Installed DAP 1522 As Bridge?

Mar 30, 2011

We currently use the DIR 655 in our home. I has a great range, and we've never had any problems. Our house is a very tall Victorian, so some areas don't get as strong a signal as others. I'd like to set up a few addition devices to extend the coverage of our network.

I installed a DAP 1522 as a bridge to our entertainment PC. After a while of trying to sort out how to configure it everything is working there. The 1522 is connected to the PC via cable.

I still want to extend the overall wireless range to better cover the lower floors and back porch.

From reading the manual on the 1522 I am a bit confused. I understand how it works as a bridge, connecting devices via cable. Will it also extend the range is set as an Access Point without needing the devices to connect via cable?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: EIGRP Route Advertisements Not Making It To ASA 5510?

Mar 11, 2012

We are deploying a new office in the building next to our main office.  The main office has a Cisco ASA 5510 behind that is a Cisco 3750 stack. In the new office we are deploying a new Cisco 3750, they will be connected via fiber cable.  I have sliced off VLAN 800 as a transit link /30 with an address space of 10.249.249.1-4.  The new 3750 only has two VLAN's 800 and 112 (10.112.0.0/24).  VLAN 112 routes are advertised to the neighboring 3750 properly as seen in the routing tables of the 3750 stack:
 
D       10.112.0.0/24 [90/3072] via 10.249.249.2, 00:22:24, Vlan800
 
Traffic passes between all local VLANS with no issue.  I found in order to get packets to pass between the ASA and the new 3750 I had to add a static route to the ASA:
 
S    10.112.0.0 255.255.255.0 [1/0] via 10.100.0.1, inside
 
My question is why is EIGRP not advertising the 10.112.0.0 network to the ASA.  Here are EIGRP configs on the switches
 
Existing 3750 Stack
 router eigrp 100
network 10.0.0.0
redistribute static

D-Link DIR-655 :: Internet Dropped A Lot While Playing PS3

Nov 27, 2011

where my internet dropped alot while playing ps3.i switched from my horrible d-link router to a DIR-655 Since i bought it, i've never dropped but my connection speed is an issue when playing my ps3.I use a wired connection through my router.some periods during the day it's 2 mbps download.. that's really slow considering my computer has 20 mbps download through wired connection.some periods during the day it runs fine @ 4 mbps - 5 mbps download (this is fine for gameplay but it lags a bit)if i directly connect my modem to my ps3 - it goes 20 mbps download (amazing fast speed)I called d-link technical support and did everything from port forwarding to turning on DMZ and putting my ps3 IP in there. I have a 2 part question: is there anything i can do to boost my ps3 connection download speed as high as it would be if it was connected straight to my modem while using a wired connection to my router? if that's not possible, is there anyway i can keep a stable download speed @ 5mbps?

D-Link DIR-615 :: Performance Dropped After New Internet?

Jun 9, 2012

Despite all the drama regarding the DIR-615, I've had the B2 revision since around late 2008 or early 2009 (can't remember exactly, most likely late 2008) and it had been working flawlessly. And I do mean that. I never once had a problem with this router and highly recommended it. Back then I was on a 24/1 connection, and had been up until recently.

Now I'm on a 100/10 line, and things haven't been looking too great. The internet is stable for the most part, and I am getting full speed, but the router has been starting to drop its connection a lot. I've had to release -> renew (or simply restart the router) quite often now and it seems to be happening at complete random.

weaking with settings, updating firmware, etc but no luck. All connections in question are of course wired, not wireless.

D-Link DAP-1522 Not Connecting

Mar 10, 2013

My D-Link DAP-1522 wireless bridge is connected through a single cat5 cable from the LAN port on my PC to the 1st LAN port on the D-link unit. At the moment, it is in bridge mode, with the blue power indicator on, the orange wireless connection light flashing, and the 1st LAN port connection periodically wavering indicating that it is communicating with my PC. When I attempt to configure the DAP-1522 via my internet browser, (IP 192.168.0.50) I get an error saying that the requested webpage does not exist.

Cannot Connect Ipod To Wifi ( Mac Filtered )?

Nov 22, 2012

My home WiFi network security is set up with MAC filtering and WPA-PSK encryptionAll my WiFi devices, ( Laptops, Android, Internet Radio, TV Streamer connect and work ok . However I cannot connect my Ipod to this WiFi network. When I try to connect I get " Unable to Join Network " . When I disable the Mac filtering on my WiFi it connects OK. My router is a Netopia 2247NWG and my Ipod is an Ipod Touch 4th generation running Ios 6.0.1 and is up to date.I've checked and double checked the MAC address in the MAC filtering table and I've deleted it and added it again but to no avail. The easy answer is " Disable the mac filtering, its not needed " but I have a specific reason for using it.

D-link Dir-655 :: Wifi Connections Dropped Periodically

Mar 5, 2011

My DIR-655 drops WiFi connections every few days.  All wired connections are fine.  Rebooting the router fixes the problem at that time.  Cable modem works perfectly fine. [code]

I'm sure I'm missing some devices, but that should give you the general mix of wired/wireless devices that I use.  I'm single with visits from my son every other weekend, so network traffic is not that high at my house.  I've had this router for a couple years now and didn't use to have this problem.  I've been updating the firmware, and I suspect this problem happened after on one those updates.  I just don't know which one.  Also, I didn't use to have any neighbors with Wireless Routers (that I could detect), but recently there have been 2 who have gotten them.  I was hoping this was a problem that D-Link was aware of, but that does not seem to be the case.  I would hate to have to go out and buy a new router (not D-Link).

D-Link DIR-615 :: Download And Upload Speed Dropped?

Jan 6, 2013

When I bypassed the router and connect my pc to the cable modem directly, my download and upload speeds are over 20mbps/10mbps.  But when I connect my cable modem with the router, it reduced dramatically to under 10mbps/5mbps.So the bottleneck is with the router.  How can I troubleshoot the router to remove this bottleneck?

D-Link DIR-655 :: 14:57 Minutes On Hold Just To Get Call Dropped?

Aug 18, 2011

one last try before boxing up my new DIR-655 and taking it back to Microcenter. I've opened a case via email and got the standard response, below.I have a Dlink DP-300U print server that works fine with my 'old' Belkin router, a F5D-7230-4 wireless unit. Nothing wrong with the Belkin, I'm just getting some service drops from my lousy AT&T ifitl 1.5mbps ISP and thought a new router might work. I actually read the manual (!!) before installing the DIR-655 and even followed it. The print server just isn't visible on the network. Everything else is, though. The 'suggestions' from Dlink tech support below are very useful. If I could 'see' the print server to verify its IP address, we wouldn't be having this conversation. I've rebooted everything, several times and even reinstalled my old Belkin router (which always sees the print server.) And Dlink, no...I'm not interested in paying you $32.95 for up to a half hour to maybe fix a problem caused by your new device. And dropping my call after almost 15 minutes on hold is not cool, either. With reference to the issue you are facing, we suggest you to kindly ensure that the IP address assigned to DP-300U print server is in the same network range as that of your DIR-655.

NOTE: The default IP address of DIR-655 is 192.168.0.1 Once it is done, try to ping the IP address of DP-300U using any of the wired / wireless client connected to DIR-655.note the DP-300U is not currently supported in North America. D-Link offers a premium fee based support line that will be able to support any issues you have with this product.

D-Link DAP-1522 - Unable To Log On After Network Changes

Sep 30, 2011

I recently had a networking guy set up a VPN for me, but for it to work properly he had to change all my IP addresses to 192.168.10.xx from 192.168.0.xx. My DAP-1522 (in bridge mode) continued to work but I am unable to log on to it, I think because it's address is 192.168.0.0. I have run into some other issues which makes me think I may need to upgrade the DAP-1522 firmware and/or assign it an address beginning with 192.168.10.xx, however I can't log on to the bridge. (Nor do I know how to change or possible reassign the DAP-1522's address through my router, a DIR-615).

D-Link DAP-1522 :: Not Connecting To DIR-815 Properly?

Apr 26, 2011

My problem is two-fold:

1. the DAP-1522 will not connect to the 5GHz network of the DIR-815. Although, this doesn't surprise me as none of my 5GHz-capable devices see it, other than intermittently and at low signal. It is most likely an issue with the 815's 5GHz radio/network.

2. OTOH, the 1522 does appear to connect to the 815's 2.4GHz network just fine. However, there is no Internet access for any of the devices connected to the 1522's ports.

I know the 1522 can work correctly on 2.4GHz, as it previously did fine with my prior 2Wire router from AT&T. (I've just switched to Comcast, using the DIR-815 connected to their SMC modem.)

Also, I know the router and modem work fine (at least with 2.4GHz), as all of my wireless devices connect easily and with screaming bandwidth to the router and Internet.

D-Link DAP-1522 :: Incompatible With Almost All New Pioneer AVR's?

Aug 27, 2010

I have just discovered after three weeks of testing that DAP-1522 wireless bridges are not compatible with all the new Pioneer AVR's that support internet radio and Iphone control.  Anytime a DAP-1522 is powered on and on the same subnet mask as a Pioneer receiver it will cause the Pioneer to loose it's connection every 30 minutes.  The receiver is then not able to connect unless it is powered off and on again. The DAP-1522 will cause this even if the Pioneer is hardwired to a router and nothing is plugged into the DAP-1522.  This affects all new models of Pioneer receivers including the Elite line like I have.

I have tested this with 3 differnet Pioneer receivers and 2 DAP-1522's and always got the same results no matter what the settings were and with the 1522 in AP or bridge mode.  Other Pioneer receiver owners experiencing constant disconnect problems on another forum have now also confirmed they have DAP-1522's.....and they are also pissed after spending countless hours troubleshooting.

I talked to Dlink support today and they will not admit to a problem so I can't wait to contact Pioneer tech support on Monday to let them know I have found the reason they are seeing returns on their new receivers (some cost as much as $7K) since many of the new owners like myself are exchanging them thinking they got a bad one.  I'm sure Pioneer will test this immediately and force a Dlink fix or turn it over to the FCC.At this point I just wish I could get my money back since I have also already confirmed that a netgear bridge works just fine.  Come to think of it, I know Dlink has a new refund policy, but I will check with my state district attorney to see if they can legally keep my money even if the product doesn't work. I don't see anything on the outside of the box with this policy so therfore I wasn't given fair warning of the policy before purchase and would not be expected to know it since it is not industry standard.  Let the games begin.

D-Link DAP-1522 :: No Internet Access With It

Nov 29, 2010

I have a DIR-655 router with a DAP-1522 connected in bridge mode.  The firmware on the router is 1.21 and the firmware on the bridge is 1.21.  I have my SSID set to broadcast on the DIR-655 with WPA-Personal encryption.  When I initially setup the DAP-1522, I was able to access the setup page and connect to the DIR-655.  On the status page of the DAP-1522, wireless radio is enabled and status is connected.  I connected my XBOX 360, Sony BR player and DirecTV DVR to the wireless bridge and none of them can connect to the internet.

I can wirelessly access the bridge's IP, 192.168.0.50, from any computer connected to the DIR-655 but when I attempt to access the internet on any device connected to the DAP-1522, I do not get a connection.  On the XBOX 360 I cannot connect my live account.  On the Sony BR player, I get a message that new firmware was found, but when it attempts to connect to the internet to download it, the connection times out.  Same occurs when attempting to access the internet on the DirecTV DVR receiver.

D-Link DAP-1522 :: Unable To Access It

May 25, 2012

More that a year ago, with guidance from D-Link Customer Service, I performed setup on a system consisting of a DSL-2640B (with wireless disabled) and a DAP-1522 as an access point. I included the 1522 so as to have an N network, since the 2640 is G. The system works fine and I'm able to stream via the 1522 to an N 300 USB Adapter. Internet access is fine, and I'm able to access the 2640 with no problem.I want to add another 300 in a different location. To do that, I'll need to access the 1522 from my Windows 7 computer, since I've lost the passphrase that I'll need for the 300.Everything that I've read tells me to connect the 1522 directly to my computer via cable and to temporarily change the network adapter settinge to:

IP = 192.168.0.x         various sources list values of 2 and 99 for x
Subnet mask = 255.255.255.0
Gateway = 192.168.0.50

Then to use a browser window to go to 192.168.0.50 Regardless of the settings that I use, the browser (IE9) always indicates that it can't connect with that address. accessing the 1522, or on any alternative way to obtain the passphrase.

D-Link DAP-1522 :: Administration Web Of Switch Is Not Available

Jan 10, 2012

my config : one DAP-1522 as an AP + one DAP-1522 as a switch, 6 meters between them, signal strength about 70. Any others wifi networks around my house. both with FW140b03.bin dated 01/14/2011.Most of the time, both work correctly. But time to time, the wifi link is ko. In AP status, the switch is mentionned connected (uptime = 3 hours ...). The red led is blinking on the switch. The administration web of the switch is not available and the link is ko. Unplug and plug power units doesn't fix the problem. I need to reset DAPs.From Dlink experts, i would like to get more description about issues :

- in switch mode, which are the events modifying the red led state ? what does blinking / off led mean ?

- in AP mode, what does "uptime ...STA ...." mean ? frames are periodically received from STA ?

D-Link DIR-655 :: Internet Connection Being Dropped And Random Reboots

Mar 30, 2011

I've been having a number of issues with performance on my DIR-655 with streaming media, internet connection being dropped and random reboots. Over the last couple of weeks it has been getting worse, to the point where I'm about to act out the printer scene from Office Space but with my DIR-655!  It has been rebooting, completely killing WiFi networks and Internet Connection, almost every 20 minutes when I'm watching DivX over the network. The relevent information about my network is as follows:

-Hardware:
-D-Link DIR-655
-Hardware Version: A3 (US) , Firmware Version: 1.34NA

As an experiment I reconfigured the DSL-380T into PPPOE mode and set the DIR-655 into DHCP Client.  This was over 2 hrs ago.  So far - no random reboots, no jittering on the Media Center Extender playing videos, no internet drop outs..It seems to me that the DIR-655 doesn't cope well when it has to do the PPPOE network protocol as well as the routing, WiFi and other basic functionality that it should be able to cope with.I'll leave it running as it now is and report back later, but from the dramatic change in behavior I'm hoping that I've finally cracked my perf issues with the DIR-655.

D-Link DIR-655 :: Intermittent Wi-Fi Signal Dropped Randomly 1.35NA

Jan 13, 2011

For those of you foolish enough to upgrade to your firmware to 1.35NA, only to find that all your wireless clients are intermittently dropped randomly at the same time, read on.At the time of this simultaneous drop, the logs will tell you that the clients were "disconnected due to deauthorisation" or some such (precise wording eludes me, has not occurred for a while, which is a good thing!). The clients are then quickly "authorised", but the movie you were streaming to your living room has already been interrupted and all your family members have gone for an unexpected toilet / snack break. Needless to say, the movie is ruined. Playing/hosting online games is an exercise in slowly pulling out all your remaining hair folicles. A random 20s delay when surfing the web is also fun. The list goes on.

A quick glance at the forum suggests this is a common problem, with the only reproducible solution to downgrade your firmware, perhaps all the way to 1.21.Get this though, you cannot downgrade 1.35NA by any means known to us internet-using, neanderthal-descendant primates (yes, your ancestor interbred with them). All workarounds to downgrade the firmware currently do not work for the new firmware.Why this is not suggested more often on these forums, I cannot fathom. There are a few threads that end like this though: "Oh, switched to WPS and the problem went away.Of course, if your wireless clients do not support WPS, then, um...facepalm yourself again. Only one of them has to though, the rest non-WPS clients you can copy paste the extremely long password to.Not so important settings: (changing these will do nothing to alleviate the drops)

Now that I have provided you with the meaning to life, the universe, and everything (42, I mean WPS), enjoy "normal" wireless behaviour again. OMG, I can actually surf the internet, torrent, play games, stream movies again.Some far more knowledgeable person might speculate as to the reason why this is so...actually, I will start the useless speculation. There must have been a security issue, that was remedied with the more recent 1.3xx firmwares. At the same time, constant authorisation checks were added. The deauthorisation/ authorisation cycle is snappy and unnoticeable with WPS, yet horrible without WPS.

Dell :: XPS 15 L502x Wi-Fi Link 1000 BGN Dropped Connections

May 31, 2012

I have two XPS 15 (L502x) laptops (purchased in March '12) with Intel Wifi link 1000 BGN adapters.  On a regular basis both laptops lose their connection to the internet (via FIOS), at the same time.  I'm convinced that is not FIOS or my router.  I have a Dell STUDIO 8100, an iPhone and iPad, and these wireless devices do not lose their connections.   Sometimes I'm able to resolve the issue by using "troubleshooting" via the adapter, often restarting the laptop and/or the router is the only way to resolve my problem.  I've run the Dell Support software, it indicates no drivers are available for update, so I assume I'm current.I've read about turning off 802.11n, I've read about problems w/ power management and conflicts with wireless.
