D-Link DIR-655 :: Ethernet Wired To HDTV NetFlix Streaming Drops

Feb 9, 2012

I have a DIR-655 that's wired via 40' of Cat5 Ethernet cable to a bus near my Sony HDTV. I get great reception and speed and all the available HD channels via my Time Warner Cable subscription.

My problem is that since subscribing to NetFlix (streaming only) when I stream a NetFlix movie I get "reloading/pauses" every few minutes. NetFlix says it requires 1.5 Mbps but Internet speed tests show I'm consistently getting between 5 and 10 Mbps.

I also have a Sony 3D DVD Player that is NetFlix enabled and when the pausing gets too bad I switch to it and sometimes it works, at other times it pauses just as frequently as the TV.

I always turn the PC off when watching TV.

Sony HDTV 46" LED EX720 Internet TV Features: Full HD 1080p in 2D and 3D, LED backlit, X-Reality Engine, Internet TV for streaming entertainment, Wi-Fi Ready, smooth motion with Motionflow XR 240, USB input

D-Link DIR-655 :: Video / Streaming (NetFlix) Priority On It

Feb 21, 2011

I am about to buy a NMP (WD Live Hub) to put my local video/music/pic content on and drive many TVs in my house.  These NMP also have services like Hulu, NetFlix, etc.  I plan to sign-up for NetFlix and do the unlimited streaming thing via the WD Hub.  I have a 5Mbps broadband pipe which is right at the suggested level for HD streams.....but I think the DIR-655 can prioritize streams/video ?

plan to put the Hub on Static (Reserved) IP address on my network....however, I've never messed with a Router and prioritization.  I assume it is something to do with the port(s) used, etc.  I have no idea the ports that will be used by the Hub for NetFlix, how/where in the DIR-655 I can accomplish this how to ID the ports used would be great....eg. some variant of Netstat command, etc ?

Linksys Wireless Router :: Streaming HDTV Media Through E4200 To TV?

Mar 5, 2012

Basically the problem is that the HD media steamed through the E4200 router has a significant lag on the TV. So details..I have the Linksys E4200 wifi router and want to stream the HD video from my computer to TV.The connection schema is pretty straightforward:Computer with 10/100 mbit network adapter-----(network cable)-->E4200----(WIFI)----->TV with 802.11n WIFI adapter.Also 10(ten) mbit Internet connection cable is plugged into WIFI router. The questions are:
 
1) Can the 10 mbit internet connection affect the speed of the media content being streamed through the E4200 router?
 
2) Does it make sense to buy the WIFI 802.11 n adapter and use it instead of the network adapter / cable in the connection schema mentioned above?
 
3) What can be other possible reasons of the lag?

Netflix Streaming - Low Wireless Router Signal Strength?

Mar 31, 2012

I have a wireless network in my home, mainly for internet access via any of the 3 or 4 machines we may be using. Normally, there's not a problem with normal surfing, email checking, youtube, etc.My wireless router is a Linksys WRT300N, and the wireless adapter card in my desktop is a D-Link AirPlus G DWL-G510 Wireless PCI Adapter. In my previous home, the router was in the very same room as my desktop, and had no problems to speak of with this setup streaming Netflix. Now, however, I'm set up in an older home, and the router is removed from my desktop by a few walls and tight rooms. I've noticed that my network status icon on the bottom right of my desktop seems to always show "Signal Strength: Very Low".I like to use my desktop sometimes to stream Netflix. My Netflix streaming sometimes goes OK, but typically it just freezes and shows the Loading bar, and sometimes doesn't really start back. It is so bad sometimes, that I am not willing to wait it out, because I know from this experience that even if it starts back up, it will just freeze again. The video is not downloading and caching fast enough.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Wrt160n V3 Resets Constantly While Streaming From Netflix

Feb 27, 2010

I just got a linksys after years of using a single netgear, this is the second we've gotten in the last month... But each time we have the same problem, the thing resets constantly while doing streaming from netflix, over wifi, and resets the entire router. I've updated to the latest firmware but i'm ready to just throw this out and put our old netgear back up.

Mar 21, 2012

Recently replace my DIR-615 (it died after about 3 years of steady use) with the 825.Followed CD setup wizard, adjusted some manual thing as well.

D-Link DIR-655 :: Wired Connection Random Drops?

Apr 12, 2011

I should start by saying I am no novice when it comes to networks but this router has been nothing but a issue since day one.

*The Setup - 2 wired PCS, 2 Wired Macs, 1 Wireless Iphone, 1 Wireless Ipad.
WPA2 Only / AES key, Channel 6, G/N only, Hidden SSID.

*The Problem - 95% of the time the wireless and wired is running fine. However, Sometimes randomly webpages on the computer will stop loading... but heres the kicker... other internet connected programs like Ventrilo, or torrents, or games will still be working and running from the net like there is no problem. When this happens the internet browsers on the macs and PCs will say page cannot be displayed instantly. Happens to all computers at the same time. After about 10min the webpages will load again. I have 16mbs internet and while this is happening my games and voice chat programs do not go up in ping at all.

I have turned off QoS since that made the most sence... but other then that I have no been able to figure it out. I even turned off wireless while it was happening and it still didnt fix it. A sure fire way to fix it is to restart the router.

I am 100% stumped. Do I just have a bad out of the box router? it is only 2 weeks old.

Laptop Drops Connection When Streaming On Specific Network?

Oct 9, 2011

my laptop, which connects fine to all other wireless networks, has trouble on this one. It can browse the web all day, but the second a large file begins to transfer (video, a file download, etc.) it will drop the connection randomly, usually rather quickly. The computer does not need to be restarted to reconnect, it often reconnects on its own near-immediately, though sometimes I have to go to the system tray and reconnect manually.I thought it was too far from the router, but my tower in the same room connects flawlessly, and going in to the same room as the router doesn't work. This same laptop has been fine on every other network, and every other computer is fine on this network. I've web crawled off and on about this for months, but no one's problem is limited to one computer/network combination.

Why Can't Link Video Via Laptop To HDTV Usb

Apr 16, 2011

I can burn a video file to USB stick and then insert that stick in my new HDTV's usb port, and the television recognises and plays the file. So it seems reasonable that a wireless (perfect) or wired (ok too) connection could be made to stream the content. No?I keep looking at the USB wifi sticks that allow filesharing between laptops and wonder why I couldn't just use a pair of them to link the two devices. But I can find no information out there at all on this.My problem is that movies burned to dvd or usbstick fail to play about half the time via the television usb port or via the blu ray player. "Error, no video file detected". And subtitles are very very dicey. Samsung's firmware (latest updates installed) just doesn't seem to handle files nearly as well as most software based players. VLC player on the laptop (and most players for that matter) play movies without trouble. Included subtitle files always sync up just fine via VLC without any prompting. So I'm looking for a link for watching movies via vlcplayer on my laptop and streaming them to my HDTV or Blu Ray player.

PN50C550 samsung HDTV.
HP 8510w Laptop.
Linux Mint 10 (have already posted in the linux section).
BD-C6500 Samsung blu ray player.

Have HDMI on the laptop and on the TV. Unfortunately, my Nvidia card will not do audio in Linux. A known issue. I've posted in the linux section to no avail.I also am having difficulties running samsung's shareware utilities in linux.Laptop has ethernet, 1394a (firewire), vga, usb, and hdmi ports.HDTV has ethernet, vga (hd-15), usb, hdmi, but no 1394a.Blu Ray player has ethernet (now occupied to router) and usb port on front panel and HDMI (now occupied to HDTV)

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 Drops Connection When Streaming Movies

Aug 1, 2011

When we stream movies in two different rooms at the same time we drop our netflix or vudu connections. Can I enable or disable any settings on my router that would work. I love this router have 35 Mbps on internet speed so I don't think that is the problem. Range runs from 35 up to 45 Mbps all the time. I know how to access my router settings and navigate where to go and what to change if I can. I have 3 laptops, 1 wireless printer, two blue-ray devices attached.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 Drops Network Shares WDTV Streaming

Jan 3, 2013

Basically I use the WDTV to stream movies from my PC and external harddrive (which is plugged straight into the router) to my TV. The WDTV has a "Network Shares" section and my PC and harddrive usually appear here.
 
The only way I can get them to show is to reboot the router each time I want to use the WDTV player.
 
Is there a setting on the router which I need to enable/disable which will prevent the network shares drop?

D-Link DIR-655 :: Connected A Wired Weather Internet Bridge To Another Ethernet Port

Feb 14, 2013

I have the DIR-655, Rev. B running 2.07NA firmware, and have a strange problem with my wired clients.  I have my primary computer/desktop PC connected via wired connection.  I also have several wireless clients (laptop, iPad, iPhones, etc.).  All have been performing normally.  However, in December I connected a wired weather internet bridge to another ethernet port on the DIR-655.

It functions as it is supposed to, and all other connected devices do as well. But here's the problem - whenever I use the desktop PC (the only other wired connection) to do anything on the internet (mostly just web browsing ... I don't stream media from the internet on it, I don't do torrents....nothing out of the ordinary, and nothing really of high bandwidth), the wired weather bridge cannot communicate with its associated website.  This continues as long as I'm using the desktop PC.  When I stop using the desktop, the weather bridge resumes normally.

I have researched the weather bridge, and it is simply doing POST transactions (or so I'm told) to the website listening to it.  It doesn't wait for acknowledgements or anything...just keeps POSTing updates. I tried reserving an IP for the weather bridge and the desktop, enabling QoS, and prioritizing the weather bridge (100 vs. desktop at 125), but it didn't work.  I've tried moving the weather bridge into the DMZ. I'm totally baffled how just using the desktop to browse the internet could completely block the traffic from the weather bridge.

On the weather bridge support site, they suggested that I insure I'm not connected in gigabit speeds from my computer to the router, because in the past that has been known to cause issues on clients not running that speed, but I don't think my desktop is connected in that fashion.  According to the settings, it can do 10 or 100, full or half.  I have it set to AUTO.

TP-Link 150Mbps Wireless :: TL-WR741ND Drops All Connections (wired And Wireless)

Mar 31, 2013

Region : Argentina
Model : TL-WR741ND
Hardware Version : V4
Firmware Version : 3.16.4 Build 130205 Rel.63090n
ISP : Fibertel

My TL-WR741ND is about 1 year and a half old, it was working fine until about 2 weeks ago. I need to reset it, times between resets is not consistent, meaning, it can take 30 minutes, or 8 hours, but it needs to be reset. Right now, there are 2 wired connections (PS3 and Desktop PC) and 7 wireless (4 cell phones, 2 notebooks and 1 netbook). 1 of the notebooks has static IP, and it also has a VM running, with another static IP. Also some port forwarding simply stopped working (ports 80 and 1180), the rest of the ports work flawlessly, but trying to forward the port 80 and 1180 (to the 2 static ips) won't work. I already upgraded the firmware, and the problem persists, also changed the channel (from 6 to 1, and then from 1 to 11).

Installing dd-wrt/openwrt/gargoyle or anything like that, is not an option. The only reason why I bough t this router, was because I could use dd-wrt, I installed it 1 year and a half ago, and it simply sucked, the wireless bandwidth was non existent, and it was a headache. I installed it again last week, to see if it could be a solution, and I was not even able to save changes in the control panel. I need a real solution, and installing a firmware that works only on chrome is not an option (specially when I use Firefox, and I needed to install chromium just to erase dd-wrt)

Linksys Wired Router :: E2000 - Security Wired Ethernet Connections

Sep 19, 2011

I have an e2000 wireless router and have several devices connected by ethernet cable including private data on an external hard drive.  I am planning to allow a tenant in another building connect via an ethernet cable connected to my router.  Can I limit that computer (tenant's computer) from accessing all other devices connected by ethernet cable to my router?  I know can password protect wireless access and limit access to the internet that way -- but my question is specifically to connections by ethernet cable.

D-Link :: DIR 615 - Live Streaming Video On Websites

Apr 13, 2013

i've lost the ability to view live streaming video (adobe flash, i think) on several websites.  it happened gradually over several weeks and now videos will not load.  the dir-615 has functioned flawlessly over several years but it might be showing its age now.  connecting directly to my com cast broadband modem fixes the problem.  can i tweak the router settings or do i need to replace it?

my setup:  dir-615,  H/W Ver. E1,  F/W Ver. 5.00NA,  two wired connections to X Box's and one to Win 7 PC.  wireless connections to several Win 7 laptops and other tablets/phones.   com cast high speed broadband with their Norton security suite.

if replace.....i need a recommendation.  the best bang for a buck while staying within a tight budget.

Wired Internet Connection Drops

Dec 30, 2012

My wired/wireless internet connection drops every 15-20 minutes for a few seconds at a time. I have a Cisco Linksys E2500 which is bridged to a actiontec mi424wr router (Verizon Fios router). My fiance's computer is wired while my laptop is wireless.When I originally set up the network I had 2 mi424wr bridged together but it dropped very frequently. Switching the router and upgrading the firmware has made in happen less but it is still frequent enough to warrant trouble.

Wired / Wireless Drops Network?

Dec 6, 2012

I am having a networking trouble within my work network. I began to noticed the network infrequently dropping a few weeks ago. It was then started working good for 2 weeks and then yesterday it dropped 6 times. I purchased and setup a Linksys e4500 thinking that a more expensive router will take care of the job but it seems to be happening again. Today it worked fine for about 4 hours then dropped twice. I tried pinging the router but that did not work

TP-Link 300Mbps Wireless :: TL-WR1043ND - Streaming MP3 Files From USB Drive?

Dec 9, 2012

Region : United States
Model : TL-WR1043ND
Hardware Version : v1
Firmware Version : 3.13.12 Build 120405 Rel.33996n
ISP : Charter.net

Everything is set up in the router software. The tuner detects the USB drive as a UPnP device, shows the directories I've set up for media share. If I select an AAC or FLAC file to play, the tuner loads it and plays. If I select an MP3 file, it loads, shows it as 100% buffered -- and hangs. Every time. The other devices on the router's network (wired desktop, wireless laptop, wireless tablet) can load and play the MP3s along with the other file types from the same USB-connected drive. That's why I figure the router isn't causing the problem.

Linksys Wired Router :: RV082 - Speed Drops To Between 2-3mb / Sec

Oct 25, 2007

Networking isn't my strongest computer subject area, but I know I'm having a performance problem with my RV082 router. When I direct connect my PC to my cable modem, I can get very near the 7mb/sec rate advertised by my ISP. When I connect the modem to this router, then connect to the pc to the router, the speed drops to between 2-3mb/sec. All tests performed several time using dslreport.com speed test website. The result is very repeatable, so I figure it has to be some delay introduced by the router. I can't see to find any place in the router configuration to do performance tuning. I'm not using any firewall rules except for the default rules. Why I'm seeing a greater than 50% decrease in internet throughput using this router?

D-Link DIR-655 :: Intermittent Internet Connection Loss And Video Streaming Stopped?

Jan 10, 2012

I am having wireless connection/internet issues that are irritating me to the core!!! I have called tech support 4 times now, and I still can't get everything to play nice...I have the 655 set up as a wireless router to a Windows 7 laptop, one iPad, two iTouches, and one N3DS. I can't find a setting that will work with all devices. Here are the senarios...

1) Settings: Wireless enabled, 802.11n only, Auto Scan off-channel set to 1, Best Transmission rate, Channel Width Auto 20/40, Visible, Auto WPA Mode with AES Cipher and a pre-share key. This yields fantastic results with my laptop, it can stream video for entire episodes, and I have no problems with loading webpages in either IE or Firefox. However, it does not support the kids iTouches or N3DS.

2) Changed the above to mixed 802.11n/g AND ALSO tried 802.11 only: iTouches work and can connect to the internet, but laptop doesn't like it. I get "Problem loading webpage" every other time I access and website, and streaming stop every 5-6 minutes. Bars indicate wireless signal is strong, but intermittently get that yellow triangle.

Running Windows 8--64 bit computer, with a SBV4200 Voice over IP cable Modem (Time-Warner Communications),  in home network. Longstanding problem with Ethernet connected computer losing connectivity to E3200.  Connectivity reestablished by powering down, cutting power to cable modem, computer, and E3200, and restarting. Other wireless connections (iphones, ipad, other dos -based laptops have no problems--never any loss of connectivity.  Things I have done to date: removed Linksys E-series software and reloaded,  updated drivers, changed all wiring to router, and checked IP addresses and they are different.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E1000 Drops Wifi (but Not Wired) During File Copy?

Apr 5, 2012

I've been experiencing a strange, repeatable behavior with my Linksys E1000. I have several wireless and wired devices connected to my E1000:
 
Wired:  TivoHD, Sony BluRay Player, Sony TV, Windows XP Wireless:  Lenovo Laptop (Windows 7), HP Laptop (Windows 7), 3 iPods, 2 iPhones
 
When I try to copy large files (~ 4GB) from my (wired) Windows XP box to either of my (wireless) laptops, the Linksys drops my WiFi network -- but the wired connections continue to work (including internet access).  Copying the same/similar file from a WiFi device to a wired device appears to work correctly, as does copying from WiFi to WiFi.
 
To be clear, my WiFi network "disappears" -- it is no longer listed as an available network (as opposed to just dropping internet connectivity for WiFi).  Unplugging the router and plugging it back in brings my WiFi network back up.
 
I have been able to repeat this issue with multiple files over the course of several weeks, and it happens about 75% of the time (i.e., I am occassionally able to complete a file copy from wired LAN to WiFi).
 
A little bit of background:  I resurrected an old Windows XP box and am using it for shared network storage.  I copied about 400 GB of files from my laptops to the XP box (WiFi to wired) with no issues at all.  Pulling the same files back from XP to my laptops (wired to WiFi) has been causing the issue described above.
