I'm trying to install a D-Link DI-524 router and I'm running into problems at the beginning of the installation. I went ahead and reset the router and I'm following the quick installation guide instructions found at http://www.dlink-me.com/ftp/wireless/DI-524/DI-524_QIG.pdf. I get to the part where you are supposed to type in 192.168.0.1 into a web browser, but when I type this in, nothing is found. What am I supposed to do?

who is your internet provider

you can't do this over wireless. you have to be plugged in to access it for setup (unless your computer has recognised and connected to the default settings). Hook the ethernet cable directly from the router to the computer, and then you should be able to get to the admin section. If not, reboot the computer and try again. Once there you can change settings and get everything set up the way you want to, and then go to wireless if that's what you want to end up using.

Noob problem here

I have a Netgear MR814v2 connected to a Motorola SB1501 with Roadrunner. After restarting the cable modem first, waiting, router, waiting, pc. I can access the internet/network (physical to winXP desktop, wireless to Vista laptop).

But then after a few mins, the signal drops off completely, and I can only see the router by connecting 192.168.0.1.

Any suggestions?

What is your router reporting as the WAN IP address?

Alternatively try going here: http://192.168.100.1 This should be the cable modem's configuration page. You're not suppose to be able to see this normally, but if you can, and if it indicates it's trying to connect, then you have a problem with your cable modem or cable signal.

Your router is dropping packets. I have a cheap ass $23 D-Link EBR-2300 wired router that has that problem when I try to open more than 3 tabs at one time. It can't keep up with the traffic load.

I am able to see my modem initially via 198.162.100.1, but after the internet stops, I can't access it.

And the router has worked for me in the past, its a 100/10mbs router. Also after going into the cable modem settings I found this.

^^^ your name says it all... you can always access the 192.168.100.1 of your modem, even when your online.

why would you say your not supossed to? but if you dont like the no-shell'ed versions of Moto's firmware you can always stick Haxorware 1.0rc6 on it. you will like it mo'beta

^^ thoose entries are unknown OID entries in the config file that was loaded to your modem. 99.9% of the time they are nothing to worry about.

if you want to read the OID properties of your modem just use the community name 's3uw4d' without the single quotes.

Not on my setup I can't. I can only access that page if I change my IP subnet to be 192.168.100.x or when the internet goes down, the modem automatically hands out this subnet to the gateway. Otherwise, I can't access it.

1/22/2009 3:43:57 PM

what kind of modem do you have?

non-moto?

1/22/2009 3:46:13 PM

motorola sb5101

1/22/2009 3:49:35 PM

my advice is to buy your own modem so that you can run whatever firmware you want on it... walmart has 5101's for $65...

Haxorware is a great firmware for this modem, it allows a lot of customizations. It has a great web-based interface too.

1/22/2009 3:55:36 PM

^ lol

that advice helps him in no way.

What WAN IP address are you getting mdurham, as reported by your router?

1/22/2009 3:59:12 PM

heres the fix...

1) unplug all power cables and ethernet cables
2) plug in power on router, wait 10 seconds
3) press reset on router for 10 seconds, wait for complete reboot
4) unplug power from router
5) plug in power on cable modem, wait for complete boot
6) plug in modem ethernet cable to a WAN/Internet port on router
7) plug in power on router, wait for complete boot
8) plug in computer ethernet cable to a LAN port on router

This is the correct sequence for all idiots to get online. Yay!

1/22/2009 4:26:13 PM

thanks for advice,,, but being the idiot i am, that's what i did in the first place to get it to work. and then about 1-2 mins later, the internet fails.

any other ideas?

1/22/2009 6:50:40 PM

have you confirmed all works fine for more than 1-2 minutes when plugged directly into the modem with whatever computer?

1/22/2009 7:05:28 PM

yea, i am directly connected from Desktop NIC->Motorola SB5101 Cable Modem right now (for days) without problem.

But i literally just did what ^^^ said again, and I can connnect, and then load about 3 pages before it shits itself.

permanently or until i restart all of the above.

interesting.

personally i'd try another router and see what happens..not exactly the free'est solution but def an easy one

I have another Netgear Modem/Router combo, but i can't get it to work. The GF is going to nick a router from her moms tomorrow, so we shall see.

1/22/2009 7:15:00 PM

you can't swap out modems without calling time warner, only routers
