D-Link DCM-201 Requires Frequent Resetting
Mar 21, 2011
I just got Charter cable internet and decided to purchase my own cable modem instead of paying 5 dollars a month to rent one. I got a D-Link DCM-201. I know it is a little old but it was brand new/unused so I figured it would work out well. Ever since we got it hooked up every few hours we lose internet connectivity. The power, cable, and status lights are solid green and the Ethernet light is blinking green. The only fix I have found for this is to power cycle the modem. The problem is this happens about once every 4 hours...having to reset the router every few hours is making having cable internet a much more painful experience than it should be.

Have an SRP527W that I've had a couple of years,
Model:SRP527W, ADSL2+ AnnexA, 802.11n ETSI, 2FXS/1FXOVersion ID:V03Hardware Version:4.0.0Boot Version:1.1.17 (Jan 4 2010 - 21:15:46)Firmware Version:1.01.29 (002) Mar 29 2013ADSL Firmware Version:0.78.0Recovery Firmware:1.01.20 (011)Setup Wizard Version:20110728.00
As indicated in the subject, wireless users are finding that it is either unattachable (shows up in the list but fails to attach) or if you manage to authenticate and get in, it's painfully slow or simply drops out. Security is WPA-PSK. Only noticed the issue after a couple of Windows 8 laptops came into the household, but the problem still seems to be there when they are off so not sure if they are connected in some way or not. Updated to the latest firmware - no change. Wired connections are fine and when it's initially restarted, so is the wireless, seems to happen sometime after wireless services are restarted. Only the one Wireless SSID, nothing fancy, max users around 5, all on laptops or the odd pad. I changed channels done narrow wide etc, (using mixed mode - some Wireless N laptops some Wireless B/G. Nothing seems to make any difference. No log entries until the Wireless system is restarted, doesn't require a reboot of the router, just a SUBMIT of the existing wireless settings to force it to restart.

Shareport recognizes the printer only after resetting the DIR-825 router. I don't know if this is a Shareport issue or an issue with the DIR-825 disabling the USB port.This happens after there is no PC connected to the router for a number of hours such as overnight. I have 1 laptop and 1 desktop running Win 7 64-bit and 1 laptop running Win 7 32-bit. The desktop is connected directly to the router and the laptops connect via wifi. All PCs work perfectly when the DIR-825 is reset.This isn't a big issue but it's extremely annoying and shouldn't happen. I use a Cisco WAG320 in my office that has similar USB functionality and this never happens.
D-Link Router: DIR-825
FW Version: 1.13NA
Operating System: Win 7 32 and 64 bit
SharePort Version: 3.1.0 R1 (SXUPTP Driver : 3.4.6.0)

DIR-655(A3) 1.33NAb02_HNAP_beta I used to be able to send notifications on log full etc... When my ISP was still allowing outbound email w/opt out of block on port 25. This worked on my old DI-524, and used to work on my DIR-655.In an effort to clamp down on spam my ISP formerly SBC now AT&T began requiring SSL. Secure Authentication is not required. With the ever increasing concern for controlling spam DLink really needs to get in gear and provide the support customers need and back the efforts of ISP's to control spam. Otherwise it's wasted code occupying space. On that note if space is a concern, need space for the code ~ throw SecureSpot out !
[URL]
On the Outgoing Server (SMTP) Settings window click Edit and verify:
# Server Name - displays smtp.att.yahoo.com.
# Port - displays 465.
Note: When updating the secure server settings, check SSL checkbox first to update the port setting.
* Under Outgoing mail (SMTP), the box next to server requires a secure connection (SSL) is checked. This works flawlessly with Thunderbird and other mail clients therefore it is clearly a shortcoming of the firmware on the DIR-655 i.e. no SSL? This is totally inadequate.

I've just gotten a DIR-615 and replaced a working linksys G router. I configured it to work with my ipad (wireless N), my laptop-win 7 (N), and my desktop-vista (USB connected N). Everything works ok,. I'm using WPA personal, WPA2only, AES encryption, 3600, 802.11n only, auto 20/40 mhz channel width, invisible.
Here's the problem. As I powered up and shut down the laptop each day, it wouldn't connect to the router. I could see the connection, but windows said it couldn't connect. I had to go and unplug the router, count to 10, and then plug it in, and tell the laptop to connect and then it would connect it would be fine.
I thought it might be a compatibility with the laptop driver, but after powering down the desktop today, I had to do the same power cycle on the router to get the desktop to connect. So then I went and turned off the IPAD and had the same thing happen. 3 for 3.
I'm pretty sure its router settings and not the 3 devices, this never happened with the Linksys router, but I don't know what to change.
One other odd thing, when I view the network in windows, the DIR-615 icon is there (for about 15 secs), and then it disappears (for about 5 secs), and then reappears (15 secs), disappears (5 secs), etc. - almost like its dropping out for 5 secs... I haven't noticed a performance hit, but haven't transfer big files yet.

Have 13 DCS-920 Every few days a few random cameras will will hang/become unresponsive at random intervals. The cameras require that I unplug the cameras before they will respond. When the cameras are unresponsive I cannot access the camera via a web browser, the D-View Cam software, or the setup wizard. This is a problem as they are all mounted in positions requiring a ladder to access.
I have some connected via 802.11g and other hard wired over 10/100 cat-6 Ethernet cable.

I have a DIR-655 and OVERALL like it -- but there is one HUGE flaw.
I have set up several MAC address-based rules/schedules to restrict the times of use by my kids. FOR THE MOST PART these work fine (all clients on wireless). BUT at random intervals, all of the PCs with these MAC-based rules/schedules in place suddenly lose their internet connection (i.e. get blocked by the router). This does not happen to me or my wife (neither of our laptops have MAC-based restrictions in place for them). A reboot of the router reestablishes connectivity for the blocked machines. This reboot is something I find myself doing daily -- sometimes multiple times per day. I have verified that the latest firmware version is in place.

(My router says Version 1.9).Had this router about a month. It works fine. Using it in Wireless mode wpa2 security. Get excellent speeds. HOWEVER> It freqently drops connectivity and fails to allow wireless clients to connect at all. (You can see the SSID via wireless clients, but not connect to it). To restore it, I have to disconnect from Power, wait a moment, then reconnect to power. It recycles and connections are working again with no problems (UNTIL NEXT TIME). Seems to happen every few days.
I checked the web site and I appear to have the most current firmware.I have a Trendnet router on different channels in another part of the house which has never had this problem. I disconnected it to test if it was somehow involved, but the TP-Link router had same symptoms when it (trendnet) was not connected. Our Actiontec Router (VERIZON provides this as base connectin to them serving the Cable TV DVRs also) ) has its wireless disabled and is the DHCP server provider to the home network. DHCP is disabled on the TP Link.

I have a wireless ADSL, D-Link 2640U. I was doing some configuration on it and immediately the control panel disappeared. I am trying to log in it is refusing. I have try to reset, it is not resetting. Network is working, but no internet because I have not yet configured it for the internet. When i use it's cd, it reaches to the point of detecting it and telling me that "The router is off or a cable is not connected" Though it is on and the cable is fine i have tested it in different routers it works well!

On one of my cameras time keeps resetting as if power was turned off then on again. It happens 2-3 times a day. I think there is no way to resolve it other than replace the camera.

My D-link router won't give me a break. Every 10 or 20 minutes it resets, severing the internet connection. This is extremely annoying, especially when I'm playing online games or downloading something. Simply put, the three lights suddenly turn off, then they start turning on again one after the other. I don't want any of the automated answering machines with their usual 'help', like "download update", "contact your ISP","disable your firewall".

I have bought a DIR 615 router one week ago and although my main goal was to use it at better wireless speeds (using the N feature) it turned out that I can only use it as a normal router. The hardware version is H1 and the software ver is 8.0.
The problem is that whenever I turn on the wireless with default configuration, the router immediately starts resetting by itself over and over again. Sometimes it doesn't reconnect, but as soon as I try to connect to it using one of my laptops, it immediately starts restarting. After it starts the continuous resetting, it is very hard to reset its settings using the hardware reset button, because I don't even have time to press it for 10 seconds. If the wireless is turned off, everything works.

I just flashed this router with DD-WRT about a week ago inside the webui that was provided. It all went well but I wanted to go back to the original factory firmware so turned it off for 20 seconds, and held the reset button for 10 seconds to reach the emergency-room. I re-flashed it with the firmware I got from d-links website and all went well. So I tried to go to 192.168.0.1 that did not work so I tried the ip that I gave it before it was flashed and it still remained x.x.x.254. I also turned off dhcp server since my isp's modem provides that and other services. But when I looked into the logs it would keep starting up dhcp server every minute which would lead to all kinds of problems.
Edit: The ip/subnet are set to 192.168.0.1/255.255.255.0. It seems to start this as soon as dhcp is disabled.

I've had a recent problem where I turn off my router computer etc every night and the next day the router has reset to original configuration. I lose SSID, password, region etc and have to do a quick setup or restore a back up config each time.
I've had the unit for about 1 1/2 months and all was ok until recently when I switch the wireless switch at the back of the unit so my kids couldn't access the router and internet. I switched it back on after a while and all was ok and later shut down for the night. The next day when I turned it all on again the SSID password etc had reset.
Anyhow I contacted TP-link and was told to disable the WPS for both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz. That seemed to fix the problem for a couple of days but it has now returned.Should I try the 30/30/30 reset??

I have a Cisco Valet wifi router that works fine with my laptop and my computer that has a usb wifi adapter. The problem is that for some reason when I try to connect my moms computer to the router it can only connect to the guest router and when I try to connect to the regular router it just fails even when I use the correct password. I have tried uninstalling the driver and re-installing it for the usb wifi adapter for my moms computer (NetGear N150 USB Adapter) and its nothing works. Her computer by the way is an Acer Windows XP SP3 machine.

I understand ip addressing and what a subnet is.But why is it sometimes I connect two things together,it always requires a subnet mask, and other times no? For example when I try to connect two computers together, it requires both IP and subnet mask.But if I use FTP software all it ask for is IP.Same thing when connecting to a website through their ip, doesn't require subnet.

I've been having this issue where my wireless network completely disappears from my computer and it requires a restart to fix.I know for a fact that it is not my modem/ISP as my iPad still connects just fine to the network.My network disappears about after 10-20 minutes of being logged on.

Lately, I upgrade the firmware on my router. A linksys WRT54G. In order to access the router I had to do a manual reset to factory settings. Post upgrade, for some reason I couldn't access the internet. I tried everything for hours and finally through sheer luck of unplugging every cable and ever power lead and plugging it back in, it started working.
However, lately I've found that the only computer connected to the internet via eathernet cable is loosing connection intermittently. Also we seem to get constant huge spikes in latency and very inconsistent speed. Unplugging the router and plugging it back in again seems to solve this problem temporarily, but requires toggling of power multiple times a day. Also I had what I believe was an IP address conflict, or lack of an IP address once, but using the windows troubleshoot errors fixed that by resetting my wireless network card. (This was on a 2nd machine)

I have a Linksys X3000 router. While it is running, connection latency will gradually increase over about a day until eventually it just stops working at all and I have to power it off and back on again.
Ping times to a local website slowly increase from 30ms immediately after restarting the router, to about 100ms about an hour before it will need to be restarted, then rapidly increase to over 1 second before it drops out completely. When this happens, no connections through the router will work, I cannot even ping it or connect to its configuration web page.
I upgraded the firmware to see if that would work but it didn't. I have had the exact same problems with the 1.0.0 and 1.0.01 versions.
Can I get it replaced? And in the mean time, is there some way to make the router automatically restart at a scheduled time?

I'm currently trying to setup a Linksys SRW2048 switch.
The switch came with version 1.0.0 of the firmware (circa 2005), which worked fine with Google Chrome and Safari on OSX.
However, I recently upgraded to 1.2.2 (circa 2009), and the in-built web configuration page doesn't seem to work in anything except for IE6 or IE7.
Chrome and Safari give me a whole bunch of resource not available errors, and the page itself doesn't render properly at all:
Firefox also doesn't render it properly either:
It seems a bit strange on Linksys/Cisco's part that they'd release an updated firmware that meant their switch could only be used by Internet Explorer.
Or failing that, are there any known workarounds to get this to work with Chrome, Safari, Firefox - anything other than IE? Or anything on OSX or Linux?
Also, I heard that firmware 1.2.1 still works on non-IE browsers - any archives of older Linksys switch firmwares?

I use a cisco asa 5520 to terminate multiple site to site VPNs. Due to the configuration of a parteners network, i have had to install 2 routers into this parteners network, i have been supplied static private IP addresses for each router each router has a unidue LAN subnet which is the VPN's protected network.The partener use's PAT with only one public facing IP address.The VPNs are initiated from the parteners network using an IP sla ping.
Upon installing my first VPN router in the partenrs network, once NAT-T was enabled on the local ASA the VPN started working fine. After installing the second VPN router i tried installing the new config on to the ASA but via CSM, the ASA complains that it can not have 2 VPN's with the same peer address configured.

I am fairly new to the Cisco world and aim to take my CCNA in the coming months.I am now working with a customer who has several Cisco 857 (UK PPPOA ADSL over POTS)The have sonicwall firewall VPN devices that needs to have one block of 8 static ip addreses from the ISP at each site.The current configurations use the network address on the VLAN interface use Static NAT to a private IP address to connect to port 23 on the VLAN interface. Why would you set up the router this way?,I thought that from a block of 8 IPs the first would be the network address the last the broadcas address, one for the router (on the VLAN interface) leaves 5 usable for the hosts attached to the ethernet ports on the VLAN.

I have Dell Studio XPS i5 laptop (64 bit) with DELL Wireless 1397 WLAN Mini Card (version 5.30.21.0 from 1.10. 2008). I recently subscribed for an internet connection that requires 802.11n speed. As my wireless card does not support it what are my options here. Is there a magical link to update my card and start gaining from the maximum speed (30 Mbps or higher if I want) or I have to change the card by buying/installing a new one.

At our house we have Fast Access DSL through ATT. We are getting very frequent disconnects and lags. We have multiple devices running off of a single DSL modem/router. It has wireless and wired connections available. Our wireless devices disconnect as frequent as our wired devices do. We have called ATT many times. They have had us replace the DSL filters and did a line test outside our house which came back clear. However, when they run a line test while I am on the phone with them, they say they detect multiple errors on the line. We have replaced our DSL modem with a new one as well. It is a NETGEAR VersaLink Four Port Ethernet Wireless Gateway, Software VER:06.04.12. The self-diagnostics on the Modem come back clean with no problems detected. We get static on our phone line frequently as well.

So I have a WRT160N firmware v3.0 wired connection to my PC, and at least once a day my connection speed drops from 2mbs down to almost dial up speeds at 60kps. Just unplugging the router then plugging it back in seems to fix it every time. I've contacted my service provider and they say there's no issue on their end, and since I don't get this problem when I plug the modem directly to the PC I agree with them. I've done a factory reset and that didn't work. I've gone through the FAQ and can't find anything useful in there.

My ISP here at my mother's in Italy (www.teletu.it) gave me the following configuration:
1. Supported Protocol: PPPoE or PPPoA
2. VPI: 8
3. VCI: 35
4. Encapsulation: LLC (If not supported: VCMUX/NULL)
5. Modulation: Multimode
6. Authentication Protocol: PAP or CHAP
if I connect my laptop to the ADSL modem, it all works just fine and I can connect to the internet (as you can see )
HOWEVER, if I then try to configure my WRT54G v6 to use this internet connection (I NEED to be wireless here, or I won't be able to use my iPhone and iPad), there is no way apparently for me to configure the Encapsulation, Modulation, and Authentication Protocol above. I just upgraded my WRT54G's firmware, and am now running firmware Ver.1.02.8, 10/05/2009. I was hoping this would allow me to set these parameters, but I can't find a way.
I tried just configuring the WRT54G with PPPoE and the ISP's userId/password, but this doesn't seem to suffice, and I don't see any other settings I could try.

Currently, we have the AnyConnect client authenticating our users to our AD environment. All is working as desired. Now our Controll Agency is requiring a two step authentication for VPN access. Is it possible (and if so how do you do it) to also configure the AnyConnect client login to send a PIN to the AD usres registered Cell Phone and then require that PIN to be input to make complete the VPN login process?
