Protocols / Routing :: DLINK-615 Router Best Configuration Settings?
Jul 25, 2011
i have a dlink-615 router and im wondering if i can configure it the best way possible to work best with wireless devices, like my laptop.there are 4computers running on my network and i want to get the best result possibly for my connection.can i change settings in the routers configuration page so 1 computer can have 90% of the signal or bandwidth of the connection.i want to decrease the other 3family members connectivity to my router, like limit their use of the network or signal/speed/bandwidth strength?
I have a Buffalo WHR-G125 router which was given to me for free by my ISP for being a loyal client. At home I have a computer, a laptop and a netbook. The router is connected to the computer and I have no trouble accessing the Internet on all three of these devices. I can open pages, download etc.
However: However if I decide to host a server on some game, my friends cannot connect. After doing some research, I found out that certain ports are "closed" (whatever that means) and I need to open them in order for everything to start working again."
Anyway, I checked the infamous site "portforward.com" for instructions on how to open these ports. It was all fine and dandy, until the point where they stated I need to access my router settings page ("default gateway" or whatever, you'll have to excuse my ignorance). I entered "ipconfig" in cmd and it turns out my default gateway is 192.168.1.1. So I entered this in the URL bar of my browser and got a nasty surprise:
"404 Not Found The requested URL was not found"
I am truly stumped. The address is not accessible on neither the computer, nor the laptop or the netbook. I tried some automatic port forwarding software, but it didn't seem to do anything for me.
The only reason for this I can think of is that my ISP is probably blocking the router settings page for some reason (and how unfortunate, I can't even complain, because it's free, after all).
I tried asking on the official Buffalo forums and even tried asking for support and got pretty much the same message: "Try resetting. However, if it's flashed, you can't do anything.".
Not exactly sure what to do right now. My worries:
1.) I'm not even exactly sure how to reset the darn router
2.) I'm scared that reseting won't do a thing and even if it does, I'm not sure I'll be able to reconfigure the entire thing by myself and the worst case scenario, not having internet at all.
Is there any way to access the friggin router settings page?
I have a dlink dir 615 router that has started to drop wireless signal continuously (as in once every minute or so). I looked into potential issues and all signs point to firmware upgrading as the solution. I even looked up the latest firmware for my unit and it indicate that it repaired wireless connection issues. But my issue is that I downloaded the latest firmware and it won't let me install it. It keeps saying that it isn't the right file or my router is too busy to complete the upload.
I own a Nanostation5 Loco, and I have a router behind it.I would like to add a DHCP Lease to that router and do a port forward to the router.I can not find the DHCP Lease option in Nanostation settings, but if I choose to see DHCP Leases in "Extra info" on main page I can see some MAC and IP addresses there.When it comes to port forwarding, I fill the form slots with info, and when I press OK to save it a pop-up comes saying "Please fill out this field", a field for another forward rule.
i have internet connection which is connect using dynamic ip address but if i add ip address in Local Area Connection i get two networks, one is internet dynamic ip & other one is ip which i setup in Local area connection. so if i select LAN network for lan clients i can access lan. but now i have DLINK DIR 615 router so what should be my settings?
I have been having a lot of trouble getting my computer to connect to the internetIt is only one computer on the network that consistently has problems. It was working ok recently, except that I would have to turn the router off and back on fairly often, because the computer would say that the DNS lookup failed. Today it stopped working, and now says that the adapter does not have a valid ip configuration. I do not know what to do.
I've been using DIR-600 wireless router since an year. But, after having a factory reset i'm having a strange issue. When i'm configuring the router in the Dlink page(192.168.0.1 now i changed it to 192.168.1.100).. In that i go to Manual Internet Configuration>> then i select Static IP(Since i've been provided a static IP,gateway, DNS settings by my ISP) As soon as enter IP: 192.168.1.2,, and Subnet 255.255.255.0,,,Gateway : 192.168.1.1 and enter DNS details and press SAVE.. I get a message " Invalid IP Address".. I've set the Router IP as 192.168.1.100 and DHCP range : 3 to 199I don't know why is this happening.. I'm not able to connect to internet now from the router.
Recently the router has been dropping the wireless connection, and now is not connecting with the computer - the ethernet still works. It was suggested to upgrade the firmware but I can't access the configuration.I've tried admin, and blank password which is supposed to be the default. I've also tried XXXXX as password, and another username and password in case I had altered it for security.It doesn't allow me in.
I currently own 3 Dlink DWL-3200AP that are setup on MultiSSiD with Vlans 1 and 2. I just picked up 3 Cisco 3550 layer 3 switches. I also own a Cisco ASA 5505 (acting as a router) which is connected to the internet. The 3 switches are connected using the GiBi connectors to each other. They are across the campus from each other, one switch is in the room of the router. Each switch has 1 of the Access points on them.
What I am trying to do is setup the switches to take SSiD 1(Vlan1) to have access for the entire network and have SSiD 2(Vlan2) just hit the router for internet. I have all static IP's setup on the SSiD 1(Vlan1) connections, and I want to have a DCHP server for the SSid 2(Vlan2).I setup in the Cisco Network Assistant, for the 3550's to have VLAN 1 be port 48 and VLan 2 be port 47 going to the router.
What is currently happening is that if I connect to the SSiD1(Vlan1) I can access all of the switches and the router no problem. When I connect to SSiD2(Vlan2) I cannot connect to anything, ping or otherwise. I figure it might be something in the Access Point but at this point I am hitting my head on a wall trying to figure out what is going on.
I'll be installing a cable modem in the next few days and would like to connect my WRT310N to it. I was wondering what would be the best settings to use.
Main uses:
- Distance from WRT310N to other devices is around 8 meters, separated by 1 concrete wall
- Stream music/video from PC to iPad and another laptop wirelessly.
I need the capability to log into the 3g/4g modem and change the Wan IP address. Doe anyone know of a 3g/4g modem that allows you to do that. My other option would be to disable the wireless radio on the 3g/4g router and connect my Linksys Wireless router that I know I can log in and change the WAN Ip. It looks like to me that this model below would allow me to do that?MBR1516 Will turning off wireless radio on the 3g/4g router completely turn off all routing or could there be a conflict with my Linksys wireless router?
See attached diagram, which shows me using the tp-link router to protect my internal network from the guest network for internal security.Should I put the tp-link router into a DMZ on the first main Orcon router to be able to make remote access form the web into my network? I have an IP camera etc that I need to access from the WWW. If I do this does this have any security implications; both for my network or the guestsMy reasoning is not; as the TP-Link still acts as my firewall and the specific address of the TP-Link doesn't affect the guest, but I thought I'd check with the Pros!?
So currently where i live we dont have internet other than the tethering of our iphones. I bought this router mainly for use as file sharing between 2 computers. The reason i bought the router over a switch is because we are moving in 2 months and will have cable internet.So because of this if i have the router plugged into the computers and i plug my iphone with its USB into the computer to access the internet the router seems to block it. When calling support to find out how to disable the routing to allow the iphone internet through they seem to not know what the heck im talking about.
I was in an online game with my wife when I lost my internet connection. We are on the same Lynksys wireless-B router. My pc is running win7, hers has win8. I could not reconnect but could connect if I went directly into the modem. I have Comcast cable.

The setup looks like this:I have a core swith (HP Procurve) which is connected to Cisco router ( which is ISP router).I have to create vlans and do intervlan between them and reach the ISP router.I created two vlans on HP Core Switch ( apart from default vlan 1) , vlan 99 ip add 10.110.234.1 subnet 255.255.255.128 and vlan 999 ip add 10.110.234.129 subnet 255.255.255.128,vlan 1 ip add 10.110.232.42 subnet 255.255.254.0.tagged the ports of vlan 99 and vlan 999 in vlan 1. I am able to do intervlan routing, but i cannot reach router which is 10.110.232.1 subnet 255.255.252.0.I tried these scenrio on packet tracer, it is working fine.
I am just confused over the fact that a router configured with 10.1.1.1 address (assuming it's got 255.255.255.0 mask) can communicate to a PC connected to one of it's LAN ports and manually setup to have 10.1.1.2/8 address. I was sure that since these are two different subnets they won't see each other. But they do and searched wiki and just googled to see why, but with no success. A friend of my friend says something about 'same range' but it makes little sense to me.
I just need a good article about it or a crystall clear explanation, because I feel my understanding of IP is not as good as I used to believe.
I have att dsl and they supplied me with a modem, a motorola model type 2210, and my belkin surf N300 router is giving me issues connecting to the internet. Im pretty sure my wireless network adapter is a netgear wg311v3.The issue im having is that sometimes i can connect to the internet just fine, and sometimes i cant connect to the internet. I know it is a router issue because when i plug the modem into my comp, i can access the internet 100% fine.I also think it is not a wireless network adapter issue because i ran an ethernet cable from the router to my comp and had the same issues. There are 2 other computers on the network, one of them is a year or two newer than my dell desktop, and has no issues whatsoever connecting to the internet via the router. The other computer on the network is a Wii, and has connection issues when playing online (probly a different issue), but can access the internet no problem.
I am doing my college project(Client Server Chat Application in C#). I need to transfer all the data of my application through a VPN tunnel. I want to create a IPSEC VPN tunnel through which I can route the Data. I am low On budget I am not inclined towards buying any Hardware. So is it necessary to purchase a Router or a Network Interface Card To create A IpSec VPN.
I set up the password through WPA-PSK, the problems come up. My laptop, HP G62-465DX and my Ipod Touch can connect by inputting the passcode but the other laptop in my family, HP G72-b60us, cannot connect to the router once the passcode is set up because the laptop claims that it is incompatible with the router when it was before. Also, my wireless printer HP Officejet 4500 wireless G510 n-z does not work when the passcode is set-up.
I have recently changed my ISP and as such now have a modem router from them, however I used to have a seperate modem connected to my own router that I have already set up to have port forwarding to my CCTV, DVR and networked storage (Built into exsistine router).Since connecting the new modem router to my exsisting router I have been unable to access the CCTV, DVR and Storage from outside my LAN.
I guess this is because the devices are on the client list of my old router and not on my modem router.Is there anyway I can access the old port forwards through the new modem router, it used to be a matter of just xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:9966 for example but now this would try to access the modem router and not the router it's connected to.
I have not found any options to disable the router side of it to make it act as just a modem.The hardware is a Virgin Media Super Hub model connected to a D-Link Dir-685.For arguments sake the IP address of my D-Link is 192.168.0.1 and the Super hub is 192.168.100.
I have a little problem with installing my new router. There were quite a lot of problems with the old smc, so I've bought a TP-Link router. I installed it just alright, it said congratulations, you have internet. I don't have though, not even on the directly plugged computer. It's kind of frustrating, since the old router is still working like before. So I plugged an ethernet cable from the old router's lan to the tp-link wan and with that, the new network is working just fine. The problem with the internet access occurs only, if the router is directly plugged to the modem. (The computers do find the network but the connection is kind of offline.) I don't really know what could be the problem, since I'm a little new to routers. I've read almost everything in the new router's manual and I'm pretty sure it's installed correctly. (ADSL username and password copied from the old settings, mac address copied, all ip addresses pinged, done power cycle etc..) I thought about resetting the modem, but I'm a bit afraid of losing the old router's internet connection as well.
I am having a problem with my router disconnecting every time that I close a browser window. I am pretty sure that it is a problem with either my Desktop or my WiFi usb card that is connected to my Desktop. I have tested this on my laptop and it doesn't seem to have the same issue. Has any heard of this or does any have a solution to how I can get this working correctly?
I am trying to instal my Netgear router. It is asking for the Preferred DNS name and the alternate DNS name? I got the IP address and the other required fields but I'm not sure about eh DNS thing?
I'm trying to forward ports for game connections. For this particular game, I'm trying to forward port 7777My ports aren't forwarding according to: Open Port Check Tool - Test Port Forwarding on Your Router and Open Port Check Tool[CODE]
Basically I have a win2000 server running as a VM in my computer with a secondary LAN address(Different subnet) which acts as a gateway for the other devices on my network (e.g. my wifi-router has DHCP relay set to my VM's address). The VM uses another network(internal NAT) for accessing the Internet though my computer. So far, I've managed to set up the DHCP and routing. Other devices on my network have access to the internet. But, since my computer has only one NIC, and even though the VM uses a secondary IP address, it's still on the same network as my internet connection. There are computers that belong to other people, who I do not want to give access through my router(even though their computers are picked up by my DHCP). I was given only one IP address for usage on my computer. This is why I wanted to add some kind of an authentication procedure(like some sort of PPPoE login maybe?)so as to prevent unauthorized usage my my connection. The question is, 'What are my options for the authentication procedure, and where do I start?' If my explanation was unclear.
I have a problem with my Belkin router that is ruining any online gaming experience I want to have. Any time I try to play a game on my PC, I have to deal with STRICT NAT. On my router setup page I have all security features off, UPnP is enabled, and i'm pretty sure I have my computer in a DMZ. (As far as I know a DMZ'd computer should have an Open Nat right?)When I use run>cmd>ipconfig it says my ip address is 192.168.2.2, which is the same exact thing that is in my DMZ box, but it isn't appearing to work.Does anybody have an idea how to set up a successful DMZ on a belkin router?
I have D-Link Amplifi N+600 Dual Band wireless router (Model: DIR-827) that was purchased a couple of months ago. I live in a house with a bunch of other university students so I would estimate we have about 18 devices that connect to the router such as laptops, mobile phones, and gaming systems. Every few hours our wireless router will just stop working and drop everyone's connection including the connection to the wired Ethernet ports. The light which is normally green on the front of the router turns yellow and will stay that way until the router is reset. The network still shows up on all the devices with full signal bars but no access.
