D-Link DIR-655 :: Wireless Output Reduced Over Time
Nov 23, 2012
I have had a DIR-655 router for a few years now, but slowly over time the wireless output has gone down. I have tried changing parameters to only-g or only-n, rebooted, changed other parameters based on what I have read in some of the forums, but have not been able to restore the power. It has an ANT24-230 antenna, and the latest firmware update 1.35NA. Different devices all show the same thing, that even next to the antenna the strength is only 80% in spite of the fact that the wireless output is set to max.
even though I have been working on this for a couple of months now, and am considering buying a new 11AC or 900N router if this is not fixable.

Ok, some time this week the strength of my wireless signal has been greatly degraded. I have not had any problems connecting to the router in the past at any location in my house. Now if I am 20 feet away I barely have 1 bar of signal.
I have tried changing channels, and rebooting the router. It has not improved.

AI have a Dir-825 router. The 5GHz is turned off and the wirless is on G/N. I have shawcable for my isp and my firmware is 2.06 and its a Rev B Router. I also have Qos Engine on for allowing me to have 2 xboxes on Open NAT.problem is my wireless signal for some wired reason is VERY weak. A while ago it used to work really far way outside. It was around 150ft distance at 4 bars. Now for some reason I can't even go upstairs without getting a 1 or 2 bar signal.

I have a H.264 web cam with a built in server attached to a 1 watt Powerlink(N) router(bridge) connecting wirelessly outside (100 feet)to my Dlink 655. My computer connects wirelessly(60 feet) through the house via a 1 watt Powerlink USB adapter to the 655 also. It was the Network from hell to get up and going, but it is functional? now.I have the Dlink with a web server port open outputting the video. I can access internal and externally via IE with a Dyndns domain so its all working.Dlink says I'm getting 80-160mbps from the web cam and 25-55mbps from my computer.The Problem: Camera server comes up fine and starts to stream great video for 2-5 seconds then its like the bandwidth gets used up and it gets choppy, stalls for long periods ETC ETC. I have Nat TCP and UDP set to End point independent if that makes a difference.

I noticed my wireless connection was decently fast for my needs which was 13-15 up /5 down. I am in the next room from my study and around <10 ft away from the modem in the study. However today the internet was extremely slow for everyone in the house so I went to reset the modem. After resetting the modem I noticed that the internet speed went a bit up and so I used speedtest.net to see how fast the connection was in the study. The computer in the study is connected with a ethernet cable to the modem. I was amazed that the speed in the study was nearly double the amount. I understand that wireless connections are undoubtedly slower than a wired connection, but is it normal for the speed to drop by half when I am <10 ft away from the modem?

I have an E3000. I have moved to a new house. Here the router range has suddenly become very short. By very short I mean, it works well within the hall (10 meters), but as soon as I enter another room, it drops and doesn't work behind closed doors or through walls. Also its next to a staircase, and wont work as I go downstairs and into a room.
I tried testing a D-link (N) router, and an Older Linksys (G) router, but all of them seem to be suffering the same problem. My wired connection is performing very well, and this prob is with Wifi only.

I'm running hardware B1, firmware 2.00NA.
All of a sudden this morning, whenever I login to the router, I get this truncated output displayed in my browser just as I paste it below (this is 100% of what is displayed in the browser window):

When I first got my DIR-655 (Hardware version B1) the Wireless would keep on turning itself off, and it needed a reboot of the unit to turn it back on again.After having upgraded to the 2.03NA version of the Firmware it seems to be working correctly and hasn't turned off for a few days now.

My kid is heading off to college with a Toshiba Satellite E-205 laptop and a Kodak ESP Office 2150 printer. She would like to use the wireless printer option on the Kodak, which requires a wireless router. I have a D-Link DIR-655 wireless router that I can send with her.
I know her university has a very robust wireless system for Internet access, so she is going to want to use their wireless access.
So, the DIR-655 sole use will be to allow access to the printer. It will not be accessing the Internet or be cabled into the university's network.
Is it possible to operate TWO wireless connections at the same time so she can hit her university wireless and the DIR-655 so she can print wirelessly?
how do I configure the laptop and the DIR-655 to allow this kind of access?

Region : Mexico
Model : TL-WR841ND
Hardware Version : V8
Firmware Version :
ISP : Telmex fiber
I use this router to replace the FO rooter that my ISP provides with the service as it's too limited (no NAT name translation, closes NAT, no uPnP etc...)
So the WR841ND acts as my main router, DHCP server, WiFi AP for all my network. My problem is that once in a while ( every 1 or 2 days) the wireless loses functionality, I still can see it from my devices, but can't connect, even fixing the IP (apparently not a DHCP issue then). The only way to fix this is to shut down the router 10 sec and restart it.
This brings another issue, I have another router (WR741) in WDS dispatching the signal to another part of the house to wired devices (Xbox , wd tv live hub) and it loses the WDS link, again the only way for this router to recover it is to restart it which is annoying.

I'm having to reboot what is now my 2nd router every 1-2 days in order for all connections to resume working. My 2nd router was working great since Saturday afternoon, and just now I needed to reboot in order for my laptop to connect to the network.Now that it seems pretty clear the router in general isn't faulty, I suspected that the issue was IP lease related, so I was looking at DHCP settings and changed the lease time to 2880 (max setting), from 120 (default). However, this should only prolong how often i'll need to reboot the router. So, what is it that's causing my devices to disconnect or not being able to connect to the router for a prolonged period of time?

First discovered this problem because I was unable to connect to a particular web site that was functional according to a friend that I was talking to on the telephone while trying to connect.
Problem: Network UPLOAD speed is randomly reduced from 2Mb to 600Kb while download speed seems unaffected (Abt. 30 to 50Mb). First eliminated the router, modem and cables as suspects working with ISP tech support. CAT 5 cabling to router and cable modem. Then I discovered that another machine on the network did not have this problem. I then discovered that disabling the network and re-enabling the network cured the problem.....temporarily. Downloaded and installed latest NIC driver from MB web site. No solution. Downloaded and installed latest NIC driver from Realtek web site. No solution. Updated MB BIOS. No solution.
MB= Asus M5A97 EVO
CPU: AMD FX-4100
OS: MS Windows 7 Professional 64-bit SP1 (Latest updates)
RAM: 8.00 GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 802MHz (11-11-11-28
NIC on MB Realtek PCIe GBE
Disabled TCP/IPV6. No solution. I suspect it is one of the "Advanced" settings for the Realtek PCIe GBE, but I don't know what they do. Anytime I disable and re-enable the network adapter my upload speed returns to normal. I haven't been able to isolate a particular action that causes the slow-down. The attached pics show speed test, before and after disable - re-enable network adapter. Same server.

I just bought a WAP321 Wireless AP. I wonder why it cannot sync with our time server automatically. Every time I reboot it, the system time become "Fri Dec 31 1999 12:00:00 UCT". I have to do the sync manually by clicking on the "Save" button under the menu Administration > Time Setting.

I'm getting currently installing a full Valcom IP sound and clock system , along with all new Cisco 2960 gig ps-l switches. All devices run off of POE. In the past, I have read that most AP's only draw approx. 12.5 watts (va's). But you must take into account length of wire to add your additional draw which puts you at the 14.5 they auto draw. My question being that the clocks I have auto draw 15.4 watts, which is eating up my 370w of power on my switches. The spec sheet on the clocks show only a power consumption of 4.5 watts. So today I turned a few ports down to 4.5 watts and everything still worked fine.. Any experience by chance with Valcom devices or just turning the power down on devices in general? I can imagine that a clock is drawing enough to care about the length of the wire run.

In my last thread I had difficulties setting up access to my FTP server through the RV220W router. After getting it to work, I faced a new issue of reduced upload speed. 240ish KB/S which is obviously ridiculously slow. After much toying around, I finally got it to work again, after doing a factory reset of the router. But today when I wanted to upload to my friends NAS, I suddenly am faced with reduced speeds yet again(400KB/S)! settings, with one firewall rule added, to allow access to my FTP. Other than that, I also enabled jumbo frames....so I tried disabling that again. But that did nothing. Also tried disabling every firewall feature under "attack prevention" but, didn't seem to work either.I didn't reboot the router with each change, as that would make things take a lot longer....and didn't think it should be necessary?
I'm starting to get more and more tired of using my RV220W....seems slow and buggy..when I do a online speedtest, I get a 30Mb/30Mb down/upload rating, which matches the rating I pay my ISP for.... And I have a fiber connection.

We are experiencing output drops on our 3750G-12S (IOS 12.2.55).
I have monitored throughput with MRTG, but it doesn't seem that high compared to that the 3750G is supposed to handle 17.8 Mpps.
The 3750G's are stacked, running ospf, qos, multicast (IPTV) and etherchannel.Is the maximum throughput reduced by stacking or any of the other features?
I don't know if one can estimate what the maximum throughput is per ASIC or per port, but on one of the ASICs that is having drops the peak unicast load is 1.3 Mpps and multicast Mpps is 0.9 Mpps. Total ~2.2 Mpps.
This doesn't seem high at all and I don't understand why the drops are appearing. What I can do to find out the reason for these drops?

I have DIR-655, 1.33NA. Recently, I noticed the clock in the router was off, so I wanted to correct it. Each and every time I go through the steps to reset the clock, using time server or clone computer time, or manual reset, after the save settings and reboot of the router, i find the router still displays the wrong time, and frequently reverts itself to a time on Feb 22, 2012. Same problem for trying to reset the DST settings, turning automatic time from server on and off, changing the time server polled. Additionally, I have forced the router to factory settings and rebuilt all of my configuration no less than 4 times.
So, since I recently had to trade out the cable modem because Cablevision fried it with their 'system upgrade', I'm also wondering if the same shenanigans also damaged the router.

Hooked up this router the other day to replace my old Linksys G - which has been bulletproof for 8 years. I am now wondering if I made a mistake with this unit.
I set up DDNS - after much trial and error with dyndns it now works fine.I tried to set up NTP time function - does not work. Then I set time manually. Of course on reboot it looses the time since there is no internal time function. So I need NTP.In the course of troubleshooting I turned off DDNS and behold the NTP time function now works. I turn DDNS back on and NTP does not work.
I see no logical connection between these two functions, yet the seem to interact (or not) somehow.When the NTP is not working, on reboot the time displayed in the router is the last time that I MANUALLY set the time, even though that is grayed out since I have (supposedly) activated NTP.
If I do NOTHING to NTP and uncheck DDNS, after reboot the time is correct.I tried many different NTP servers all with the same result.Looking back on-line, I see the NTP function has been a continual problem with some folks (maybe those using DDNS?) in earlier firmware. Come on DLINK don't you think it's time to get this fixed?

I starting having really bad lag when playing games or just surfing. I put on wireshark and can see my router is broadcasting all the time. here is part of the wireshark log
"1","0.000000000","D-Link_**:**:**","Broadcast","ARP","60","Who has 192.168.0.172? Tell 192.168.0.1"
"2","0.000737000","D-Link_**:**:**","Broadcast","ARP","60","Who has 192.168.0.171? Tell 192.168.0.1"
"3","0.001469000","D-Link_**:**:**","Broadcast","ARP","60","Who has 192.168.0.170? Tell 192.168.0.1"
"4","1.002284000","D-Link_**:**:**","Broadcast","ARP","60","Who has 192.168.0.169? Tell 192.168.0.1"
it does this for the whole subnet then starts over. i turned off all the broadcasting in all the menu and it still doing it. i upgraded to 2.10NA, but it did not seem to do anything to it. I bought this router on 3-5-11. I have not tried resetting it to factory settings. I wanted to see if i missed something first. Router is on a APC UPS with the modem and the switch.
Hardware version is dir-655 B1
firmware is 2.10NA
cox cable is my ISP
