Hi ,
I recently purchased a d-link di-524 router in order to set up a small home wireless network.
The d-link seemed an obvious choice ; good price , and so i thought ;a good reputation.
However i have experienced issue after issue.
My main problem is i am experiencing serious problems logging into the router. Every time i enter my u/n and p/w the logon dialog box just pops back up again at me ! I have tried resetting the box many times , changing passwords , still the same issue. Whats goin on !?
Now d-link doesnt tell you how long the p/w can be , or what kind of characters can be used , but i dont think thats the problem.
The only work around i have discovered is that if i shut donw my pc and power off the router for 5-10 mins , and reboot both , then it allows me to log in. .. What could be the cause of this ??
Also the router reboots itself on a somewhat regular basis, which can be quite annoying. I know that this was a problem with older routers and due to uPNP , ; i do not have that enabled.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated ! (seeing as d-link support canada were woefully unhelpfull)
Thanks !
Al.
