DGL 4100 Router Cannot Connect To Internet Via WAN Port?
May 15, 2011
I'm trying to change the way my network is set up by replacing an old cheap Switch with a newer Router that has some QoS options.
Modem: Motorola SBG900 LINK (provided by Time Warner, not purchased by me)
Old Switch: Zonet ZFS3008 LINK
New DLink Router: D-Link DGL-4100 LINK
Currently, my network is set up as follows, arrows being Ethernet cables:
Cable Modem w/ Wireless <-------> Old Switch <-------> 3 PCs and a Printer
With everything set up as shown above everything works fine, but I want to change it to:
Cable Modem w/ Wireless <-------> DLink Router via it's WAN port <-------> 3 PCs and a Printer
Simple change, right? Apparently not.A few things aren't working when I swap the DLink Router for the old Switch.
1. Internet does not work, though I can log into the DLink Router in a web browser and see all of the settings.
2. The IP address that used to go to the Modem (192.168.0.1) now goes to the DLink Router, and I cannot get to the Modem anymore via a web browser with any IP address.
3. The wireless from the Modem stops working.
4. I see the following when logged into the DLink Router and looking at the Status tab:
. . Connection Type :DHCP Client
. . Cable Status :Connected
. . Network Status : Establishing (Please Wait...) (it never establishes)
I have noticed that the DLink Router and Cable Modem both are doing DHCP, and I am wondering if that is creating a conflict that is causing the problem. However, simply disabling DHCP for the DLink Router and otherwise leaving the connections as they are still does not get the internet working.
<----------------insert a couple hours of fiddling with it some more------------->
The following setup works as far as letting everyone online, but QoS rules in Gamefuel are not getting enforced:
Cable Modem w/ Wireless (DHCP enabled) <-------> Old Switch <-------> DLink Router (DHCP disabled) via LAN port, leaving WAN port unused <-------> 3 PCs
I can now log into the Cable Modem via 192.168.0.1 and the DLink Router via 192.168.0.2. The wireless internet is also working again as well. My PC uses Windows 7, the other two PCs we have are on Windows XP and Vista.

I'm trying to hook up a Siemens Speedstream 4100 and a Linksys E2500. The internet works fine when I plug the modem directly into the computer. When I try to run it through the router, though, the router install appears to work right but I get a message saying that my internet connection might not be working. I power-cycled everything - unplugged all the cords and waited 20 minutes before restarting. It sounds like putting my modem in bridge mode might be the move? When I type in 192.168.0.1, I get a message that says "Server says: Linksys E2500." It also wants login information, and I'm not sure what that would be.

My home router is an aging D-Link DGL-4100 and I am looking to replace it.My max budget is ~$250 USD.
I use 2 Ubiquiti Unifi UAP-Pro APs in my home for WIFI access, so I have the WIFI aspect of my home network covered completely. All wiring in my home is either Cat5e or Cat6, my switch is a gigabit HP ProCurve 1810G-24, and my cable modem is a Motorola SB6120 (Comcast cable broadband). I have 7 IP cameras (security system), 4 streaming media players, several PCs, a server, and several other network connected devices. I am the only resident.
I am looking to maximize my WAN to LAN (& LAN to WAN) throughput while maintaining a very secure network. I also want the router to have reliable VPN. If it is a wireless router, I would most likely not utilize the WIFI feature, probably turning off the WIFI radios and just use the router functionality.
I don't have the time/patience to build a PFSense (or similar) box and learn the software, so am only considering an off-the-shelf solution. Yes I know that PFSense and Untangle are great, I simply don't have time to learn them presently or in the foreseeable future.So, which router for wired performance and security would you recommend?

I am having trouble networking an HP LaserJet 4100 series printer from a Windows XP computer to my Windows 7 laptop. I have searched and solved the initial issue of the password being asked. That has been taken care of. I am able to search for and find the printer properly on the network, however when I select the printer it says that there is no valid driver found. The printer connects to the XP computer VIA parallel port. I ordered a USB to Parallel converter and I successfully connected the printer DIRECTLY to my laptop and it installed itself without the need for a special driver. So it prints successfully from either computer when connected directly but when I have it connected to the desktop and I try to network it, I still get the error that there is no valid driver.

DGL-4100
-> Wii
-> X360
-> PS3
-> DGS-2205 (gigabit switch in study)
*-> My PC
*-> Her PC
*-> DAP-1522
We're on the 192.168.1.x domain, and I've already hooked my PC up directly to the DAP-1522 and switched its IP address. So now, I can connect to it through the switch. I've renamed it, set it to WPA2 with a passphrase, and should be set to go. However, I can't get my laptop, IPod touch, or any devices to see it. Also, the DGL-4100 doesn't list it under the DHCP clients, but as I've got the DAP-1522 set to a static IP of 192.168.1.50.

How to compete with zyxel´s wireless guest access, when it comes to "one click guest access code"? The one button feature that comes with the printer provided with this solution is a customer demand in may cases. I´m sure that linksys and cisco can figure some easy setup on how to provide this in their portfolio.

There is no "blinking light" indication on my E3000 at the Internet (Yellow label) and Ethernet port no 4. I tried plugging in 2 cables at all of the ports. I got the blinking indication at Port 1 through 3. The same cable's have no response at Port 4 and Internet port. As a result my I am not able to connect to the internet.

I use an ADSL router through my phone line to connect to the internet.My ISP supports downloading speeds of 2 Mbps. This is reflected on my router status page. But I have subscribed for a plan of 512 Kbps. I feel what My ISP has done is that it has reduced the speed of port 80 somehow to 512 kpbps i get download speeds of 2 Mbps..Is there any way to access websites or download data from websites from a port other than port 80 ?

I have a ethernet port on the wall near it so that should work. I don't want to run a long ethenet cable from my router to my 2nd pc because there's a ethernet port right next to it.

I am facing a strange problem with my DIR 601 router. I am not able to access internet when I plug in the cable from my model to slot marked nternet' on the back of the model (which I guess is the right way). However, I can access the internet if I plug in the cable coming from modem into any of the 4 ports marked as 'LAN'.

I am trying to get multiple PCs in a computer lab connected to the internet at the same time. There is an ethernet jack and right now the cord there is going into the linksys 8 port workgroub hub and then separate ethernet cords are wired from the hub out to each computer. But, this set up only allows the PC that is turned on first to connect to the internet. Am I using the hub wrong? Do I need another piece of equipment? The lab was set up like this when I arrived, but it is not working (I am thinking it did at some time).

I have a cisco 1801 (fixed), and want to use the fe0 WAN port to connect to the internet via a virgin media cable modem.
I am having a few issues (partly as I am new to cisco) and despite reading numerous posts both here and other sites, I am still stuck on how to setup the WAN side, I have read about virtual dial up & dialer interface.

I have a Dell Laptop Latitude 610 and I have not been able to connect to the Internet via the ethernet cable port for some four months now. I've tried downloading software from Dell's web site, I bought (and returned) and USB to Ethernet cable, only to find out that it was a model ahead of what this machine needs.I've asked local repair place (Microcenter) what it might be, but they'll only tell me after I pay $70 just to open it up.Another repair guy said that it is probably the motherboard and it wasn't worth fixing. (Yet if it was, wouldn't the entire computer decide not to work at all?) [code]

I'm trying to get a DS lite connected to my university's wifi, which I learned doesn't broadcast a Wireless-b signal, which a DS needs to connect. Can I setup a my own router connected to an ethernet port, configure it to boardcast wireless-b and get on wifi through that? I asked another forum which said yes, but I want to make sure before I buy anything.

I currently have an old Linksys WRT54G router with 4 ethernet and 1 internet port. I have an old Sprint 660 modem connected to the router for internet access. I am also using 3 of the 4 ethernet ports for wired devices (main PC, NAS drive and Dish Network net access). I have another PC and a printer connected wirelessly to the router.Now, with my modem going bad, CenturyLink has provided a combo modem/router (EQ660DR-F1) to be used in place of my Linksys router/modem, providing wired, wireless and modem capabilities in one.My problem is that the new router/modem has only one ethernet port along with a DSL port. Obviously, I can connect my main PC to the ethernet port, DSL to the modem port and connect my 2nd PC and printer wirelessly as they are now. How I might connect my other 2 wired devices, possibly by a hub, AP or bridge or some other means? Can one of these be connected by wireless to connect the other 2 devices, or do these have to be connected physically by wire?

is it possible to connect the wan port of a cable modem to a lan port of the home network? the reason is, i need some wifi access and more ports to my wired network, and the most reasonable solution would be a cable modem router with wifi and 4 ports just plugged into one of my routers.

Below is my show run of a Cisco 800 router (Two VLAN's, single WAN) that works fine. Problem is that in this senario port 3389 is open for everyone. Only two remote users are allowed to connect trough port 3389. Let's say WAN IP's : 22.33.44.55 and 66.77.88.99. How would a good access-rule look like to fix it?

A day or so after that, it quit alltogether, with Windows saying it is a DNS server issue. I have reason to believe the IT guy for the apartment has NO idea what he's talking about, as he has told the landlord that it is probably too many wireless routers causing interference. This is not the case.Supposedly there are only about 4 apartments (out of 16) that are affected by this same problem, and I am the only person actively trying to fix this, as it is affecting my school work. I have limited access to the hardware of the building, but can get just about whatever I need for testing purposes through the landlord if I try hard enough.

I am having an issue opening a port (4040) on the 655 for my Fedora-based subsonic server. Inside the LAN, I can see the device from other peer machines, so I am confident the port is open and listening. However, I can't seem to get to the machine-port from outside/internet.
I have tried Virtual Server and Port Forwarding with single port. The server has a stactic IP which I've included in the DHCP range and outside the range. I have a DSL connection (AT&T), modem only. I have updated firmware. I have exhausted the Subsonic community's knowledge, everything points to the router, but all the settings seem correct. What am I missing? Is if possible there is a defect in the router? (don't laugh). Is there a way to trace a request to that port to see where it is hanging?
(yes, I've STFA, but don't know what else to do).
