D-Link DI-524 problem

Archived from groups: alt.internet.wireless (More info?)

Steve,

I recommend you go back over the manual that came with the DI-524. Yours is
a typical setup and should be adequately covered in the manual. I also
recommend that you turn the old router back on and review its configuration
settings. They'll be very similar to the settings that you need on the new
router, except (of course) for the wireless settings.

Ron Bandes, CCNP, CTT+, etc.

I called the techs since I had a similar problem.
They instructed me to change one of the settings from 100,000 to 10,000
somewhere in the router possibly LAN settings.
Sorry I am not more specific. :-(
later,

Thanks Dave, that fixed the problem. Just wondering did they explain
why we have to do this?

No they didn't explain anything, but I did not outright ask either since
they try to keep conversations brief!
They must be trying to keep us in the dark. lol

glad I could help. ;-)
later,
