I have a D-link EBR-2310 router and hooked it up a couple days ago. Since i have hooked it up and put my home comp and laptop on it. It runs the internet for a while and then it throws up errors on my comp and laptop. Error is something about wrong ip address on network. I unplug the power to the router andthen plug it in and the internet works fine for awhile and then same error.

You probably have a static ip address set on one of the pc's. The router is set to give out ip addresses automatically. If one of the pc's has a static ip address set,(within the range of addresses that the router is dishing out) then the router may try to give out that address, see that it is already in use, and produce the error.

This is easy to fix:

For xp:
go to the control panel, then to network connections. Right click on your network connection, and left click on properties. In the white area of the window that pops up, click on 'internet protocol tcp/ip' and click properties.

For vista:
Go to the control panel, network and sharing centre, then click on manage network connections, right click on your network adapter, left click properties. Click on internet protocol version 4 (uncheck version 6 if it is checked) and check for auto ip and dns just like in xp.

Both pc's should be set to obtain an ip address and dns server automatically. If there are numbers in either area, this is the problem for sure. Make sure both are set to get an address automatically, reboot router and both pc's and that should be the end of it :)

Please post a comment and let me know how you make out.

D-Link 4-Port Ethernet Broadband Router EBR-2310 (EBR2310) reset password

On the back of the router there is a reset button. You may need to use a paperclip to get to it. With the power on, push in the reset button for about 30 seconds. Release the button, and let the router cycle thru lights. The router should now be reset.

Can I piggyback a wireless router onto a hard-wired router?

Yes, you can connect the DI-624 to your exitsing EBR-2310, you just need to connect the a cable from port 4 of the EBR-2310 to the internet/wan port of the DI-624, then after that you can already use now the wireless to your laptop and also the wired router to your desktops.
But I may suggest you to just replace the EBR-2310 with the DI-624 so you will only be using 1 router that can cater your laptop and also your desktop, Just connect the cable from your modem that is conencted now to your EBR-2310 to the internet/wan port of the DI-624 then run the setup CD that should be it.

Hope that helps...........
