Networking & wireless: D-Link 624 connection drops
D-Link 624 connection drops
by anima303 - 1/18/05 4:58 PMHey all
Heres the scoop:
I have the D-link 624 router. There is a computer connected to it using wireless D-link card, and my comp through cable. I have had a problem ever since i got the router, where the connection is dropped at very random times (sometimes 2 or 3 times a minute, and sometimes it lasts for an hour or two). This makes it very hard to pinpoint the problem.
Tried so far:
Many different settings with router(admitedly i dont understand what they all do....).
I have reformated my comp and still the prob exists.
dowloaded all the latest drivers for pretty much everything on my comp.
Windows SP2
And the latest: i have unistalled msn messenger. Sounds stupid but after i reformated my comp, everything was fine. As soon as I loggd into msn messenger...Disconnected (network cable unplugged)
So in attemp to solve the problem, i have unistalled messenger....so far so good(almost 2 hours), but thought i'd write this anyway...just incase.
Note: Pentium 4 2.4 Ghz, 80GB, creative Audigy LS 5.1, ATI radeon 128 9600 XT, Motorola Modem (rogers extreme)
Any help would be great..... Im out of ideas

D-LInk 624 Drops Laptop Service
by twruprec - 2/14/05 1:06 PM In reply to: Connection drops by Delboy_62I installed a D-Link 624 this past weekend and have the same problem. It drops service to my Toshiba laptop after less than 5 minutes of use ... every time. Have seen some chatter that opines the problem to be incompatibility between D-Link encryption and something in Service Pack 2.
D-link still having trouble

this is anima303 again.
no one has come up with any solutions yet. I've spent hours with tech guys in windows chat, and they dont know either. I've seen a bunch of websites with forums saying it is D-link with the problem. Some who had the same problem just baught a new router (lynksys) and now have no problems. Im thinking of doing the same. However, a strange thing happened: for the last two weeks, my D-link has not cut out at all, and i've been leaving my comp on for like 13 hours a day. The only thing i have done is started blocking junk email senders, and reporting them as junk email (with hotmail). I know this sound kinda silly, that it would change anything, but the one time it did cut out was the exact time i received an email from one of those annoying advertisments. Coincidence.... I didn't think so. However as of the last two days it been giving me trouble again, despite the absence of any junk email..... Im considering the posiblity that it has something to do with .Net passports..... it started giving me trouble again when msn messenger ask me to update. So i did, and now im back where i started...... I realy am out of ideas of what to try next......think i just might bite the bullet and get a new router.
have any ideas or comments....keep em coming..

D-Link 624 Problems too...
by jerictrevors - 2/17/05 8:03 AM In reply to: D-Link 624 connection drops by anima303Okay, here is my problem with the router. I recently just got it, and i'm trying to set it up. I have a connection directly with my computer, but it sends out a weak signal to my sisters laptop, and that is just inside my room where the router is. The only time i can get a very-good to excelent is when it is practically sitting on top of my router. She has a Dell B-G Wireless card for her laptop. Also, my mom's computer (which is completely on the other side) of the house gets no signal. I put my Linksys roter back up, and it gets better signal like it did before... The reason why i switched was that my Linksys would just randomly drop signal and then i would have to unplug, then replug it. If anyone knows how to boost my signal in which i can get it to go to the other side of the house, it would be really apreciated.
Thanks,
Jeric
