Dell :: DIR-655 Wireless Router Connection Is Limited
Nov 3, 2011
I purchased this router a few months ago from Dell. It is currently limiting our Internet connection to no more than 2 Mbps down. I originally thought it was our Internet service and them troubleshoot the line but they found nothing wrong. If I bypass the router and connect directly to the modem, we get our normal speed of 10+ Mbps. I've updated the router firmware, tried tweaking according to other tips I've found, but cannot get past the slow speeds.
I bought a new Dell Inspiron 14Z 5423 last week with windows 8 and I keep getting "Limited" on wireless connections after every few minutes.
I already try every Dell tutorial for maximize the wireless card connections, disabled Mcafee firewall and install and re-install any driver from my "product support" page and from this post and nothing seems to be working.
This afternoon the computer crashed. It restarted normally, however will not connect to the internet. Upon start up, icon states it is connected but will not connect to the internet. When attmpting to Repair connection, Windows is then unable to fix the problem. All other devices work normally on the home network (Laptop, Xbox360).
I have also tried 3 different Restore points, but Windows states it is unable to restore to this point and to select another Restore point on each attempt.
I have WIN XP installed on my DELL E6410 Latitude laptop. When I start my laptop, it acquires the internet connection fine, whether wireless or the wired connection.However on the wired connection, if I unplug the cable and replug it, it does not get the connection. It shows Limited connectivity or no connection. If I try to repair, it says , the IP address could not be renewed. Nothing works but restarting the laptop.Same is the case with wireless connection at home. The first time it catches the wireless fine. However if the system gets locked because of inactivity, and I unlock it, I am left with LIMITED CONNECTIVITY or NO CONNECTION message on the Wireless. I need to restart my comp because the repair or the disable and enable of WLAN does not facilitate.
This computer is brand new Dell Inspiron 15R. The WIFI is dropping out repeatedly. I connect for ~10 minutes, but then the connection gets a yellow exclamation point for limited connectivity, and I can't reconnect until rebooting the router. I read the sticky but there wasn't a post for the 2230 network card.
The problem happened on windows 7 and now on windows 8. Rebooting the computer doesn't work. I tried the POWER SAVE trick and it didn't work. I tried the maximum roaming trick, and that didn't work either. The network card is the Centrino Wireless-N 2230 with the 15.5.6.48 drivers.
I can connect to the Verizon Wireless router or tether off my DROID X2 for about ten minutes, sometimes for longer, but either way, the connection is dropped, and I can't reconnect until rebooting the router.
I was trying to port fwd my RDP and then I ended up getting side tracted and changed my routers password [URL] it would cause my router to stop working. I know my adapter is fine, because I can connect to the internet via wired connection. My wifi DHCP is not enabled however and I have no clue on how to enable it.
Here is the settings from ipconfig/all

I come back to you as I have a linksys e1200 router connected to a modem Zyxel P600 Series exact and every 24 hours it gives me no or limited connection. Change the IP of the router as it was the same as the modem and subcred mask, why these cuts will be as it is router problem because the modem only works perfect.
I have been having problems connecting to the WiFi in my house. Other laptops are able to connect to the network except mine. Nothing is wrong in the device manager and I cannot figure what is wrong with my laptop. The network usually becomes limited or cannot connect to this network
I am having trouble with a Vista Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop that says it is connected to my Linksys router, but has limited connectivity. It's this way with both a wired and wireless connection. I have 4 other computers in the house that all connect with no problems. The Dell laptop connects in safe mode, but won't connect when in normal mode
i was poking around steam when i lost connection to the network, when it came back it was limited connectivity. now its 3 days later and i've been trying everything i can think of to make my wireless card work again from recovery to reinstalling drivers. all the troubleshooting can say is it might be the drivers, still might be for all i know but those didn't seem to work like i said. is there a chance im just being blocked by the network? its one big public network thats shared by the whole base.
We have 2 houses on the same property only meters apart. The modem is in house 1 where we run 2 laptops and a computer. Another wireless laptop runs from house 2 and connects to the modem in house 1. However the signal on the laptop in house 2 has become very weak and keeps dropping out. I have tested my laptop in house 2 and the signal is strong in both houses and have tested the problem laptop in house 1 and the signal is strong but very weak in house 2. I have had the modem checked and all is working OK. I have had the wireless card in the problem laptop checked and it is working well off the premises. The only thing left to check is the electrical connect between the 2 house.

I'm trying to setup a router in my moms house. She has DSL and when the box is connected directly to her computer everything works fine. However, if I connect the router her computer reads "Limited or No Connectivity". I can connect to the router wired and wirelessly with my laptop, phone, and even her streaming media box without any problems. I ran IP config and i'm not geting a default gateway address.
I am using an Del note pad and was using an wireless connection from Talk talk past 45 days and it was working fine. As a sudden now the system is displaying Limited access. when i try to connect the internet - wireless . this is an windows 7
Every time I want to install the software for it ( whether from the CD or web , new or old ) I get that pop up window during installation : " compatibility issue : skip and continue or stop installation " the program lunches as it should and after entering the WPA network key I'm even able to connect to the Internet . After resetting the PC however I get message in the task-bar that the connection is limited and I may not be able to access some Internet resources. When I click on Fix button it tells me that windows can not fix the problem because it can not turn off the device? I'm running the same card in one of my PC's downstairs and it works fine with windows vista . The one I have problem with is running in win XP pc .
I have gone through the previous post related to limited or no connectivity.But I am still not able to figure out the problem with wireless connection in my windows xp sp2 OS.

Model: DIR-655 HW Version: A3 Firmware: 1.35EA One problem with DIR-655.
Drops wireless connection very often. On the taskbar in wireless network center (next to speaker and time) I can find info: Limited Access. Router doesnt drop internet connection but only wireless connection. Sometimes 3-4 times an hour. It's very annoying especially when you upload large files (for example 16-20MB) to your mailbox. It drops connection and we get Limited Access and you can try to upload again and again. Anotner example during VOIP conversations for example on skype it drops and disconnects skype.Firmware was never updated just router was bought with this firmware. We are located in China so its correct.When laptops are connected using LAN cable it works fine but its impossible to keep laptops connected using LAN cables all the time.The problem occurs only when we are connected by wireless.QOS is enabled, WISH is enabled.When QOS and WISH disabled it's same also drops connections on WIFI.
We are having issue with all our Cicso wireless devices (AIR-AP1142N-N-K9) when connected to Windows 8 Pro users. When copying large files, the connection changes to limited access. The initial connection to the access points is also slow for both windows 7 and windows 8 pcs.
I just bought a Dell Latitude D620, Win. XP, wireless and have been getting "limited or no connectivity" message when trying to connect wirelessly. Belkin G router. I cannot download anything cause I cannot get connected.

I have a Dell Latitude d610 laptop. It connects to the internet but shows limited or no connectivity. the cable used is ok as I can connect to internet with other pc. The connection was ok before, it happened just 2 days ago. I am using windows xp 2007.
I am currently in Thailand and I have been using dozens of different wifi connections around Australia and South-east Asia without a problem for the last year. I moved into a new place yesterday and when I tried to connect, it has the little yellow triangle with an exclamation mark, over the wireless symbol on the taskbar. I tried the troubleshooter but it says turn the modem off an on, I don't think I can do this, I'll try and ask reception but I doubt they will let me.
No-one else at this place I am staying has had the same problem as me. The signal strength is "excellent", the wifi password is correct. I have windows 7 on a Dell Inspiron.
I am at my old place now, where the internet works. I downloaded the internet test thing from one of the stickies, I'll go and do that at my new place and post the results soon.
I have a new inspiron 537s with vista home.basic. I have to limit the connection to 10 mb, full duplex due to my buildings internet system. it would work great, but after about 15 minutes, I get a limited connectivity icon over the internet icon, and I can't go online at all.. The building IT person said to go to 10 mb half duplex, but then I get no internet.My older dim 2400 works great, with no interruptions.I don't want to change anything without knowing what I am doing. Do you think the macafee virus software is responsible? inspiron 537s, vista home basic, celeron 2.2ghz , 2 gb RAM, g41 integrated graphics
I have a brand new Dell Ispiron 14z Ultrabook. I keep having problems with Wi-Fi connectivity. I can use the Ethernet connection fine, but when I try to connect to Wi-Fi I keep getting no access or limited connectivity. I have other devices and laptops that work fine on the same Wi-Fi networks
I have a Dell Inspiron 15R N5110 laptop and Window 7. During connectivity of my wireless connection with wifi router, wireless connection is suddenly down although wireless work fine. My wireless show the wireless network connection but cannot connect with router anymore. It works again when I switch off the wifi router and laptop and restart them. I need to restart the both of them again and again. No anti virus is installed in my laptop. I tried to uninstall the driver and install back, but it does not work .
I recently took my Dell Inspiron1545 out of sleep mode and my wireless internet connection no longer works.i have tried power cycling the 2-wire modem and the Cisco Valet router and resetting as well. I also have another laptop and xbox that use this network and are having NO issues in connecting and working perfectly fine.
The only device not working is the Dell laptop. I've tried removing the network profile, uninstalling the wifi driver and reinstalling after powercycling the computer and still nothing but limited connectivity only The WLAN utility has stated that the "Gateway IP Ping" has failed Now the laptop will connect to internet via LAN cable however will not to WiFi
I have attached the IPconfig spec sheet and hopefully somewhat can steer me in the right direction and get me back up an running.
i hav a dell inspiron 1564 laptop. wireless connections show only when the lap is very close to the router. will i hav to change my wireless card?? if i hav to which would be better; a internal wireless card or a wifi dongle?? i hav a 'dell wireless 1397 WLAN Mini card"
