D-Link DI 514 Wireless Router
Problem for D-Link DI 514 Wireless Router (DI-514)

Configuration Issue

I posted this problem the other day:

I recently switched from Dial-Up to DSL, and the DSL is working fine. I have my DSL modem connected to my desktop. I recently got a router so that I can browse the Internet with my laptop. I followed the instructions carefully to connect the router up with the modem and the computer. When I open up either the I.E. browser or the Firefox browser and try to go to 192.168.0.1, the same thing keeps happening with a few exceptions. Both browsers say that they are connecting, but I wait and wait and they don't connect. Only a couple of times did they connect, and when that happened and I got the login page, I enter admin for the id and leave the password field blank per the installation instructions. But it doesn't let me in as though I'm entering and invalid id and password. So this boils down to 2 problems:

1-Getting into the login page, and
2-Logging in when I get there

I really could use some help.

I got the solution about resetting the router. It was a good suggestion which I tried several times, even keeping the button pressed for 20 seconds, but since I posted the problem the first time, I keep hanging when I try to access 192.168.0.1, i.e., I can't get past problem 1. I'm getting desperate. Do I need a new router?

- Unfortunately, neither of the solutions worked when I tried them. In both cases, I just continued to hang when I tried entering 192.168.0.1. But I really do think that they were excellent ideas, and I appreciate the responses. I will keep trying, but at this stage I'm not to hopeful.

Is your rourter on for a long period of time?,
I have problems with 614 (almost the same as 514). the unit always hangs and I always loose all connections. I discovered that it was overheating. I tried to opern the case and the problem disappeared. I eventually put a small fan.

Try to power off the system and cool it down, and as soon as you turn it on, perform the configuration.

If the router is working in other respects, you probably don't need a new one.
I wonder if this isn't a firewall problem, or if some other service is keeping you from this page?
Try re-booting in safe mode (With networking), then enter the url and see if you get to the router page.
For most computers, you can get to safe mode by repeatedly pressing the F8 key when you re-boot. Just keep tapping the key until you see the screen that offers safe mode (With networking).

It sound like you trying to connect to the modem, and not the router.

Most routers are set up on 192.168.1.1 for the admin address. Attempt to connect to this address, and you should get a login page. Use your login (default or configured) to configure your router.

Hope this helps!
