D-Link DGL-4500 - Long Range Wireless Router

Apr 21, 2012

I currently have a D-Link DGL-4500.

I am looking for a more powerful wireless router that has a larger range. I want to have the ability to use the laptop at the house next door, so I need a range of like 150 ft, going through multiple walls (both concrete and wood) and still have enough for general Internet access.

My first question is if it's even possible and if so, what is a good router/system to use.

I would still need the ability to connect Ethernet to the router (at least 4 ports) and the wireless, obviously.

A major benefit as well would be the ability to install something like pfSense or DD-WRT onto for further management.

Long Range Home Network Link?

Sep 25, 2011

I want to create a link between two homes about 10/15 miles away from each other. I was thinking about using microwave technology to achieve this. I would like to be able to use this connection for linking two home networks/internet and possibly running iptv and voip over the link. I was hoping to operate in the unlicensed frequency.

Linksys Wireless Router :: EA 4500 Speed And Range Instability?

Jun 14, 2012

My EA 4500 wireless speed and range vary drastically by the day under the same conditions.I have tried everything listed on this forum from changing the channels to enabling the Space Time Blk Code mode. It seems to be working fine for a day or so, but eventually the speed and range goes back to being pretty bad!Even with my Ipad or Ipod touch right next to my router, my speed is cut in half compared to the PC connected via Ethernet to the EA 4500 (24 Mbps on PC side and 0.5-10 Mbps on wireless devices.)This router is a really big disappointment for me. It seems very unstable.

Long Range Wifi Through Buildings

Mar 16, 2012

I've recently lost my ability to access the internet at uni and as this is quite an inconvenience I am considering some alternatives, the most viable one I've managed to come up with hinges on the fact that I live in a building which is only a road and another building away from the main uni buildings (3 buildings on 2 city blocks), basically it looks like this: UNI BUILDING 1 | UNI BUILDING 2 |ROAD| UNI BUILDING 3 |ROAD| MY APARTMENT.So I'm thinking of building one of these: url.. or waiting for the r20000g (dual band) to come out and buying that.THEN the area I'm having a bit of trouble with: I need to get reception about 600-700m away through buildings, so I've been looking at Yagi antennas and such but can't seem to find any information on the following:

1. Will a high powered directional antenna go through a few buildings and still make it 1km (.6 miles)

2. How directional is a directional antenna? like if I point one in the general direction of the building how accurate do I have to be? (I have no problem buying 4-5 antennas if I need to)

3. Do I need a new Wi-Fi antenna for my laptops? it seems odd to me that a laptop would be able to transmit back 1km while I need a giant antenna to get to the laptop (I know its not this simple but it still seems odd)

EnGenius EAG-2408 / Long Range Wi-Fi - Fresnel Calculations?

Dec 8, 2012

i am setting up a network between two houses. I have two Amped Wireless SR300 repeaters and currently I am getting so-so signal strength between the repeaters. To remedy this issue, I purchased two EnGenius EAG-2408 external antenna's.My question is how to calculate how high to mount the antenna. A formula is preferable because I do not know the exact distance off hand and I will have to go out there and measure. I am estimating approximately 75 to 100 yards for the distance. Its flat, with a few trees/brush.

Repeaters:[URL]

-Transmit Power: Up to 20 dBm
-Receiving Sensitivity: -93dBm

Antennas:[URL]
-Omni Directional Antenna
-18 degree vertical beamwidth

D-Link DGL-4500 / Using Second Wi-Fi Router As Wireless Bridge?

Oct 16, 2012

I purchased a D-Link DGL-4500 to replace my aging WRT54G around a year ago, only to find it nowhere near as reliable. It's been collecting dust since.I'm wondering if there is a way to use it as a wireless bridge so I can connect it to my home network and then use it's ethernet ports to provide network access to several devices.

The TL-MR3220 takes a long time to identify the 3g modem and sometimes it will not identify it at all and says "unplugged". Sometimes "unplugged" suddenly apears after the modem has been identified and was working properly.Is this the normal behavior of this device ? Why ? What can be done ?

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?

D-Link DIR-655 :: Log External IP To Track Who Checks In And For How Long

I have a webcam set up on my website that feeds from my router here. 

Is there a way to track who checks in and for how long? I have a few folks that have decided to park their butts on the cameras all day long, I want to block them.

I set up a port forward, I think I have everything set up correctly. The cam works fine, just can't seem to find the log where they came from

D-Link DIR 615 - Don't Get Adequate Range In Rooms Away From Router

Nov 6, 2011

I recently bought a new D-Link DIR 615 but I dont get adequate range in the rooms farthest away from the router. I have an old D-Link DIR 634M router which I'm told can be used as a wireless repeater.I went through several articles that describe connecting the two routers through a LAN cable. However is there a way to do the same without using a cable of any sorts?

Very Slow Wireless Internet - Takes Long Time To Find Router On Pc

Sep 25, 2012

When I start-up my computer, it takes over an hour to find my router on my computer (Not on my brother's computer, or the computer upstairs). Once it does, it connect perfectly. This is very annoying because I do not have a lot of time anyway to work/play and when I do, it takes over an hour to find the router.Recently, I have been having HUGE lag spikes, constantly disconnecting from games and skype calls.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Wrt310n Takes Very Long To Connect To Network?

Sep 28, 2012

When I boot my system lately I have to fiddle with task manager to get things stable enough to connect to my network. This is getting very tiresome. I always find OdHost.exe taking almost all the CPU and have to kill it to get things running. This can't be normal and has not been until recently. I don't know of anything that has been installed in the last several months that is network related.

D-Link DGL-4500 Configuring Rock Solid Small Network Of Around 20 Wireless Devices

Sep 27, 2011

I have a single WRT54G v5 that has treated me very well over the years. I have too many devices right now and I'd like to throughput of N, but have failed to find one that is measurably faster or as stable than my current equipment. Most recently I tried a D-Link DGL-4500 and regardless of hours of configuration, research and support I was left with slower-than-expected speeds and dropped connectivity about once a day.

I want to be able to stream media to all 3 BoxeeBox's simultaneously while browsing the internet on a few of my devices and I don't want to have to reboot my router daily or even weekly.

So far I have come to a preliminary conclusion that a solid setup for me would be a ZyXEL ZyWALL USG20 and 2 to 3 Ubiquiti UniFi AP's. While the USG20 does intimidate me, I have several solid network admins that have told me they'll set up the network for me and walk me through it.

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT320N XBox Runs Fine As Long As Wired Isn't

Dec 1, 2011

There are 2 XBox's in the house and 1 is downstairs wired into the WRT320N Router.  The upstairs XBox is running wirelessly through the router.  Each of the XBox's work fine playing Modern Warfare 3, when only one is playing, but if both of us are playing, the wired connection works great, while the wireless connection is really slow and laggy.  Again, the wireless XBox runs fine as long as the wired XBox isn't also playing MW3.

D-Link DIR-655 :: Can Use One To Extend Wireless Range

Jun 4, 2010

I get 10% signal in my bedroom using WEP2 and I would like to boost this to at least 50%

1) I have 2 DIR-655 Wireless N routers, both functional.
2) The first router is on the other side of the house from my room
3) The second router is not in use at all ... I'd like to take advantage of it
4) I have an Ethernet drop in my bedroom that runs under the house to the first router. I have a switch on that drop and use it for my Sony / Netflix box ...

I have been told that the DIR-655 cannot be used as a repeater. Can I not take advantage of the 2nd router to boost my signal in any way?

Linksys Wireless Router :: EA3500 - Youtube Video Starts But After A Very Long Buffering Time

May 24, 2012

my ea3500 has problems with youtube videos. When i click to start a video, sometimes it starts but after a very long buffering time (more than 8-10 seconds), sometimes it does-not at all some other time, the advertisement  play but nothing happens after that (black screen). I have a fast internet access (30 MB up, 2 Mb down). I do not have this problem with the old router that the ea3500 is replacing ( a netgear wndr3700). On this old router al the videos are starting almost instantly.
 
I tried to lower the MTU of the 3500 from the default 1500  to 1400. No improvement. I tried to disable the WMM feature in QOS and by doing so i create another problem : i cannot access the 5 Ghz band anymore. I can see the SSID but cannot connect to it.

D-Link DIR-655 :: Wireless Range Extender Or Repeater / Booster

Nov 20, 2011

I am moving my office from one side of the house to the other which has real spotty wireless coverage. Most likely I will not be able to move the modem or wireless router, so I have to somehow increase the range.I did some research and poking around on forums, but I can't find a clear cut, number 1. What you think would be the best option to pair with the DIR-655.

D-Link DIR-655 :: Connect Two Routers To Extend Wireless Range?

May 15, 2011

I have two Dir-655's - router1 and router2.

Router1:
ip 192.168.0.1
subnet 255.255.255.0
DHCP enabled range = 192.168.0.100 to 192.168.0.200
Router 2:
ip 192.168.0.2
subnet 255.255.255.0
DHCP disabled

Routers are connected to each other via LAN ports with a switch in between.Both routers have the same wireless SSID with the same password. I am able to connect wirelessly to both routers no problem.

I have a machine running a shared iTunes library which has a wired connection to router1. I also have an Apple TV wired to router2. My issue is if I am connected wirelessly to router2 I may or may not be able to connect to iTunes library. Conversely, if I am connected wirelessly to router1 I may or may not be able to play content from iTunes to Apple TV. I cannot figure out why everything works fine sometimes yet at other times I cannot connect devices between the two routers.
