D-Link DIR-655 :: Apple TV Loose Connection
Feb 22, 2011
I've purchased and am trying to use a Dir-655 rev. B, running firmware 2.00NA. I have two hard-drive style Apple Tv's. They can see my wireless network, and after putting in the passcode, can connect. They at this point are visible to iTunes and can play any/all of my content. However after a period of non-use, they go into standby mode, and upon waking, can no longer connect to my network. I have to re-do the wireless each and every time

I already mention on another topic that I have problems with my Nokia 500 wireless connection with the router. From time to time (in some cases after few seconds since the connection was made) it's loosing the connectivity with the router. Normally it's loosing the connectivity when the connection it's not used by any phone application.Is this normal? I want to mention that the power saving function of the phone it's disabled so the problem can be from the router.I already tried TPIK only but no success.
The router has the following setings:
- Enable Auto Channel Selection - checked
-Transmission Rate : automatic
- WMM Enable: checked for QoS
- Cipher Type : auto
- PSK / EAP : PSK
Advanced wireless:
- Beacon interval : 100
- RTS Threshold : 2346
- Fragmentation : 2346
- DTIM interval : 1
- Preamble Type : Short
- CTS Mode : Auto
- Wireless Mode : n/g/b
- Band Width : Auto

I have battling this issue since I bought this router, at least 2 years.
Using:
DIR-615
PC XP Wired
2 Acer laptops Vista wireless
All DHCP reserved
Security using wpa_psk
Not sure what other router info you need. All are connected to the internet, but can't see each other on the LAN. We can see each other from time to time. Sharing is allowed. Passwords are shared. I can power off the router and the network will be fine for about a day, then gone again. Workgroups are the same.

I'm having a problem with my WCG200 wireless gateway. I can sucessfully use it to connect to the internet using the wireless feature but only for a short time (10-30min at a time). Eventually, I loose the connection. I'm not sure if it's a modem issue or an ISP issue but only one of my two laptops has this trouble.
Symptom: Connecting with a Dell Lattitude E5520 laptop It works normally until the "US" and "Online" LEDs turn off and only the DS light is left blinking. At that time I no longer have a connection to the internet. Once I cycle power on the WCG200 it re-connects and works for a while, then the same issue repeats. I cleared the modem log and let the failure occur again to record the fresh log.
I attached the Modem Log in case that would troubleshoot. I've got the security of the modem set to allow the laptops MAC addresses and using WPA-personal / TKIP encryption. I never had this problem until I started using a new laptop, I'm starting to suspect that my ISP is disconnecting that laptop for some reason ?

I have a EA3500 and my wireless computers keep getting disconnected about every ten to fifteen minuets. I have the newest firmware. My android phone also is having the same issue. My internet connection is stable and my wired connections do not get disconnected at all at any time. Is there something I need to setup in the configuration to resolve this?

We are having problems with a two router 3945 in HSRP and a switch 2960.The two routers are connected to the switch 2960 through differentes ports. The problem is that we loose connection between the router and the switch.When we excute the command: show cdp neighbor at router, it shows nothing.If we try to make ping to the 2960 switch it is no reachable.If we make ping to the other router 3945 it is not reachable.All other function of the router are o.k.We are attaching the IOS of the routers and switch 2960 and a document in which make reference to a BUG in which mention about arp overwrite due arp attack which produce DoS.

A customer of ours has the following access points and wireless lan controllers on site. They want to use the Apple Bonjour service with Apple TV's and iPads. I have enabled multicast feature of the 5508 globally and one the SSID.The Apple TV has an ethernet connection and the iPads connect over the wifi. The Apple tv is on the same subnet as the iPad's - the Bonjour features do work for approx 5/10 minutes then it stops working for some reason. The Access Points plug into a Cisco 2960 Layer 2 switch, the 5508 controllers plug are in LAG mode and plug into a Nortel Layer 3 stack which I have enabled IGMP snooping.I've read that the Apple Bonjour service isnt designed to work on a multi subnet network - but both the Apple TV and iPad are connected on the same subnet. Sounds like some kind of timeout but not too sure.

how to setup the wireless interface to forward multicast packets? Basically I cant get the ipads etc.. to see the AppleTV to control it. I connected an AP and it works fine so its got to be something with the way the router handles the packets from teh integrated wireless interface. I've been searching the forum for about 1hr and haven't founf anything other than a breif mention of broadcast forwarding and multicast setup.

I had a Linksys BEFSR41 router with AppleTV 1stGen with 0 problems.Now I have a DIR-655 Vb1 2.00NA firmware and itunes now cannot find the AppleTV as a device. I have tried resetting the AppleTV to factory defaults re-installing latest firmware and reinstalling itunes, powering down all devices etc., and no way can itunes find the appleTV although the appleTV is on the net and seen by the router.I have gone to a wired connection to the router too because the router kept dropping the wireless connection to the router too. Of course I got the DIR-655 for wireless

I have a iMac with 2 AppleTVs all connected to a D-Link DIR-655. I used to run iTunes on Windows 7 and everything worked fine (before I got the iMac). Here's the problem - since moving over to the Mac, when the AppleTVs are wire connected to the network, the iTunes library on the iMac will not show up in the AppleTVs. The AppleTVs work fine otherwise (they can both connect to the Internet with no problem). I also cannot see the iMac's iTunes library or the AppleTVs in the iPad's remote app. When I then disconnect the ethernet wire from the AppleTVs (so they hook up wirelessly to the DIR-655), it works fine (iTunes library on the AppleTVs, and everything is showing up in the iPad remote application). After the wireless connection is established, if I plug the ethernet wire back into the AppleTVs (to take them off wireless and force them back onto the network wired), it works fine as well, until I reboot the iMac, then back to square one with the same problem.
As mentioned, it works fine with the Windows 7 PC, but if the iMac is turned on on the same network router, same problem with the Windows 7 PC (library will not show up in the AppleTVs). As soon as I turn off the iMac, the Windows 7 iTunes libraries show up in the AppleTVs (no need to wirelessly connect). There's clearly some conflict being created with the iMac with the DIR-655 that's causing this. I've tried enabling Multicasting and port forwarding TCP 3689, and this didn't fix it either.

I have a brand new DIR-655 Rev B, Firmware 2.0NA.I just realized that none of my Apple device can discover each other using Bonjour, which is very essential for local connectivity for gaming and remote control and iTunes music streaming.

recently purchased the Wireless N D-Link Router DIR-615. After a few hiccups the router works with all of our computers, blackberry's, wireless printer and Ipod touch's however my Apple TV 1G will not connect to the network. The Apple TV will just give the error code -6 after the password for the network has been entered. I double checked that the password for the router is only WEP 10 hex digits and that it is correct have tried reseting the Apple TV to the factory settings and using the DHCP Reservation in the network settings of the router and manually configuring the TC/IP settings on the Apple TV (Not quite sure what I am doing with this though so put everything back). I have also tried switching the 802.11

I recently purchased the dir-655 router, and am impressed by it's speed. I had no problems configuring the router to my liking, and have found that all of my wireless devices communicate with it flawlessly.
However, my main reason for purchasing this router was for the USB port. I had hoped to connect my 2TB external drive and have it accessible by all wireless devices in my home. To my understanding, the USB port relies on the use of the Shareport Utility. I've installed the Shareport Utility to my laptop for wireless access to my media files for streaming.
Here's my problem. How can I access my media on my external HDD connected to the dir-655 with Apple TV2? I've read several options for PS3 users... and they all seem to involve leaving the pc/laptop running. I would ultimately like to bypass the necessity of leaving my laptop on... but if that's not a possibility, I can live with it being left on.
Therefore, is it possible to access the external drive connected to the dir-655 with my Apple TV 2 by using the laptop as a bridge? Can I access the content via Apple TV by using Windows SMB just as I currently do to access media stored on my laptop?
To summarize, I want to have access to the media on my external drive connected to the dir-655 via Apple TV2.

I am trying to connect to a D-Link DIR655 using a Apple G4 PowerBook equipped with an Apple Original Airport Card (802.11b) to detect WIFi signals. Trying to connect to an unsecured signal at a local Library, the computer states that there is an error connecting to the network. The Library IT checked the settings on the router and it strates the 802.11b is enabled, still there is no connection. Is there a complatibility issue witth the Orinal Airport card and the D-Link Router?

I received Apple TV and a Kobo E-Reader over the holidays, and when I try to connect them to my wireless network, they fail in connecting; even with entering the correct password. Is there something that I need to do in terms of updating, being it should connect having the correct password.

About six months ago I replaced my old router (some generic 802.11b/g router I got for free with a rebate years ago and which lasted a few years) with a Dir-601 after the old router started intermittently cutting out. Setup of the Dir-601 was straightforward enough and I have WEP enabled. Both my Macbook and my wife's Macbook can connect fine if we choose the router from the drop-down wireless network list, and the router has been consistently reliable in maintaining a connection as long as the OS is running.
HOWEVER, neither computer will remember the wi-fi network and won't auto-connect when waking up from sleep or after a restart. Our iPhone and Android smartphones remember the network just fine and auto-connect every time, zero issues. I've gone through all the typical Mac troubleshooting steps, deleting saved network connections and re-establishing new ones. Never solves the problem. We always have to go to the wireless network menu and manually select the wifi connection to connect to.
It's not the Macbooks. Firstly, both macbooks have the same issue, and they're each running different MacOS versions, so there's no version-specific issue that can be at play here. Secondly, neither macbook had this issue with any previous wifi router. Thirdly, anywhere else we take our macbooks where we've set up a wifi connection, they remember it and auto-connect without us having to manually select the network. The only network where we have to manually select the network every time is the one set up with the Dir-601. In fact, we're at my inlaws for the holidays and our Macbooks have been auto-connecting to their router each and every time.Is there a setting I'm not seeing on the Dir-601 admin page?

I am having issues figuring out how i can make AppleTV,Airprint, Airplay, etc show up on Ipads that are connected to the wireless network. The controller is at a main site which is seperated by 2800 series routers at the remote sites over 100Mbs links. Ipads connect and tunnell back to the main site. I've tried enabling FlexConnect but the devices still get the main site's addressing so i'm guessing they are still tunneling unless the AP loses connectivity to the controller. I have two SSIDs (staff and students). I have tested with just setting the staff to FlexConnect. Do I need to set both SSIDs to FlexConnect to make them dump data locally? AppleTVs are connected wired to the local networks and get addressing associated with that building.

I recently upgraded my Linksys wrt120n router firmware & had to reconfigure settings. Subsequently, some (but not all) of my apple devices are having intermittent wireless connection problems. Specifically, my ipad1 & ipad2 never lose their connection but a mac book pro (~ 2 years old), iPhone 3g, iPhone 4, older iPod touch & very old i book g4 all work for a period of time (usually 1/2 day) & then lose their connection. When I attempt to reconnect these devices I receive the following error..."unable to join the network xxxxxx....". I also have a Dell laptop (1 1/2 yrs old) that generally does not have the connection problem. Finally, when the devices do lose their network connection all I have to do to reconnect is go to the Linkys router setup webpage & click on save & the wireless connection works again (almost like this is just refreshing the connection for these specific apple devices). I was not having any problem prior to the firmware upgrade & from what I have read the older firmware version is no longer available so going back to the old firmware does not appear to be an option.

My Dell Studio 1558, specs: Core i5 2.4Ghz, 4GB DDR3, 640GB HD, Radeon 5470 has a very weird problem. Occasionly, either once a week or twice a day the network functionality will literally dissapear. The icon still displays on the tray but when I click it nothing happens. If I try and connect to the internet it will say there's no internet connection. Also if I try and open the Network and Sharing Centre explorer stops responding and has to be restarted. If I try and shutdown the laptop it will just hang on the Shutting Down splash screen and has to be forced off. The laptop is still IN warranty however I want to fix it myself as I cannot face Dell

I have one WLC 2504 with 7.3.101.0 code and 4 APs 1142 in Flexconnect mode all of them are in one group with 2 SSIDs in two differents VLAN:
-Admin VLAN 151
-Corporate VLAN 158
-Guest VLAN 159
-The auth is 802.1x using an ACS ver 4.2
I connect my Laptop to the corporate SSID and start to have access to web services, intranet services, etc but arround 15 25 min after i connect i lost connectivity to my GW and all the services but i still have my IP info. I do some tests on MAC books, Laptop with Windows XP, 7 and 8 and its the same for all. I config one switch port in the corporate VLAN and i never loose connectivity.
If i reset the WLAN connection all start to works.The ports in the SW are in trunk mode and almost always the APs are in connect mode.

I thought that there are more security issues than LAN issues, I have a network with 11 computers of which 1 is SME server and 10 are clients (mainly 256MB DDR1 tech machines withceleron D processors, onboard VGA and sound; there are few 1024MB DDR2, AMD Sempron LE processors). All clients have XPSP3, .NET framework 1.1+2.0, Office 2003, AvastFree 7.0, Mozilla Firefox 7.0 and several utilities not very important. Every client has 2 users (Admin and User) on Local Machine and 1 on DOMAIN (UserDomain). Both User accounts are limited. First, all computers were in same workgroup and not part of DOMAIN. In that time, printers on clients were shared among themselves and worked flawlessly. After joining the clients to the DOMAIN, the work continued without issues. One day, I have changed the name of the SME SERVER computer and the issues have started. Several clients can not connect to those shared printers, even others are using them well. When I want to add shared printer I can not browse the particular computer on which the shared printer is (through ADD PRINTER wizard). I manage to do it writing the full path of the particular computer and there I can choose the printer.
After selecting it, username and password is required to finish the adding. Of course I use the Admin username ad password, and after typing it error message pop up (printer is unavailable or can not connect to it). After this I close all windows, start the adding procedure again, and then I can add the printer normally. The problem continues, because, on those computers on which I have had this complicated way of install, after several days shared printers refuse to print saying Access denied. Then I have to delete the printer again, install it twice and hope to work after that for a weak at least.
The problem is getting bigger, as on one client computer I can not print from browsers (Firefox 7, IE 8) but from Office there is no problem. Of course I have checked other topics about this and use setups-modifications-advices but they did not solve printing problems. I have even reinstalled that computer, but the problem remains.

I am using WRVS4400N in our company as a AP only. Before some time, when majority of wireless clients were computers, everything worked fine. But now, when mobile devices are in majority, something strange is happening. While portable computers still work fine, smart phone and tablet have extreme problems.
Although there is indicator that WiFi is connected and signal is strong, there is no guarantee that there is an internet access. Most of the times there is none. You can fix this by simply disconnecting and connecting WiFi on mobile device, but after a while, internet will be inaccessible again. Or you can wait and eventually you'll get to the internet access again.

Not too much networking savvy - but here goes. Want to use router as local lan - no wireless. When router is connected to laptop via RJ45 I loose my ability to connect to sites via browser. IPconfig shows wireless adapter at 192.168.1.3. When router is attached it's ip is 192.168.1.1. Disabled the wireless in the settings but no dice. When the router was used with DSL it was set at PPPoE but now that I'm just using it locally not sure whether it should be DHCP or Static or other.

Have Win7 and XP systems in my network wire connected to the router. When IP of both systems are not reserved, each computer can see other network computers and devices, five in total.A good thing that both systems get each time same IPs which even got not changed since I upgraded from E1200.When I reserve an IP for each system exactly that they currently have, both systems loose ability to see other network computers. Network shares not affected, I still can remotely access my XP box remotely from my 7 via RDP by computer name. WDTV Live wirelessly connected to the router can get/update its IP address (no connection issues) but same as others cannot see network resources.
Tried different ways, rebooted, finally ended up with device reset pushing the button.The next day I managed to reproduce the issue, but was able to revert by disabling/enabling of DHCP server.Another issue I got with an external HD connected to the router when some files got converted to folders by uTorrent started from that drive.I had to use Unlocker application to be able to delete folders converted. I can just assume that issue because of anonymous access was enabled to the external disk. No problems when same HD connected to PC USB.

As soon as i modify my wireless to be unsecured, I looy ability to usse me the internet on all wired ports as well as all wireless. From the routers point of view it still has a good solid internet connection. Passes traceroute, but wont allow any wired or wireless connections on the internet. I'm trying to get a Linksys WRE54G v1 to work with this so my parents can have internet once more. If i manualy remove the security to allow the one touch Auto configuration button to work i loose my ability to surf until i run the Cisco Connection software to turn back on the passwords.

If I update my firmware on my EA2700 router to be able to use the Cloud, will I loose the ability to connect to my router on 192.168.1.1 ? If this is so, why couldn't linksys let you use both Cloud and 192.168.1.1 in their latest firmware?

I just bought a "DLink Xtreme N Gigabit Router DIR-655" I configured it correctly. It works well for the wireless connection but my Lan connection (wired connection) does not work. The Lan computer connects to the router but cannot access the internet. All of my machines work OK with a Netgear G router, including the Lan computer.

Briefly here is my setup Internet is supplied to my building by ISP(I have no router) => apple time capsule connected by Ethernet.I have used WIFI to connect all of my devices in the past with no problem until i moved into this place. I have 2 macbooks that can connect without any issues Every single other device in the house cannot connect and does not receive a proper IP Address. The ones being assigned are in the 169.xxxxxx range. Even if i plug my Imac (which cant connect) directly in from the wall via ethernet, it wont connect.The time capsule is setup as a bridge with DCHP set to run automatically. I have reset everything numerous times and restored the router to no avail.I called the ISP and they said it wasnt their problem. I was under the impression they werent assigning the IP Address correctly or something.
