Not providing valid IP addresses

First, did you pay the bill? Unplug the IPS modem, remove battery, if applicable, unplug TP Link, shut down computer. Ckeck ALL cables reseat, Replace battery, plug in ISP modem, allow it to selftest, plug in TP Link, allow it to selftest, Reboot computer. If you connect ISP Modem directly to PC and it doesn't ID your IP address use this: http://helpdeskgeek.com/networking/release-and-renew-an-ip-address/ To assist you. If this doesn't work contact your ISP provider . Try another Wireless Access Point. My ISP, Xfinity, drops from time to time , for no appearent reason, due to a number of outside difficulties.

Hi. I would suggest resetting the router to factory settings and setting up your wireless network again. There is usually a reset button on the back. Once the remote is reset, run "ipconfig" in the command prompt of your computer to find out the router's IP address. It's usually 192.168.0.1. Type the IP address into the address bar of your web browser to access the router's network setup wizard.

Hope this helps.

The reset provided on LAN extender is for reboot & not the the hardware reset for LAN Extender. Use console cable. Go to hyper terminal mode & you will be able to access LAN Extender irrespective of whatever IP settings are. Then in Menu under software Maintainance you will find Factory reset. Use that option & it will come back to original 192.168.0.1 address. Then you can use it again normally. You still find problems mail me at following address.

Provided there is no hardware problems, this issue is fairly easy to resolve.

1. Completely shutdown the system
2. Unplug power to the cable modem.
3. Wait 3 minutes (This allows the temp memory of the cable modem to scrub)
4. power on the cable modem, let it reset (Takes about a minute)
5. boot the system.

Normally this will force the cable modem to renew the MAC address of the device connected and give you a valid IP address.
If you still have an APIPA address, try right clicking the local area connection ICON and click REPAIR
If still no connection, reboot computer in safe mode w/networking and try again. If you get a connection then the issue is software (Firewall, Virus, Malware)
If you still are not getting a valid IP address, check your cabling and connection (Replace cable with a known good one if available) or try a different network card.

Start, run, CMD enter
IPCONFIG enter
see if you have a valid IP address (192.169.x.x) if you do then it is a software setting, if not IP address or an apipa address (169.254.x.x) then you don't have wired connectivity with the router.
Valid IP address: Right click network icon in systray and click REPAIR (Diagnose and Repair in Vista, Troubleshoot problems in Windows 7) see if you can connect afterward. If still no go, power off system, router and Cable/DSL modem, wait three minutes, power on Modem, let it reset, power on router, let it reset, power on system.
No Valid IP address, try a known good cable, and ensure the NIC is enabled in system bios. If still no go, try a different port in router and reset router, still no go, try another system on that cable. If another system (or another network card) connects, then the NIC is bad

Does PING works on the same location where Camera's are located?

Usually, RDP connections uses the same PC on LAN and that should work fine. Please check Camera's configuration; make sure they have valid IP address, SM, Default gateway and DNS servers. Make sure that PC with enabled RDP can PING computers on the LAN either by IP address or Computer name. Make sure they're part of the same WORK GROUP.

Hope this helps! Please provide additional information so I can further assist you.

hi there ...

your isp is at&t? please verify the ip address straight to the modem if its is 192.168.1.1 and if your modem from your isp is set to DHCP or BRIDGE mode.

IF IP address is 192.168.1.1 (DHCP)
... change the LAN IP address of the router to 192.168.2.1 or 5.1 to prevent any IP conflict
by doing this :

1. access setup page of router usually 192.168.1.1
2. under setup tab look for the ip address, change it, then save
3. click on the status tab , and look for a VALID ip address

IF MODEM is set to BRIDGE mode
.... please ask username and password from your ISP coz we would need to set your router to PPOE...
1. access setup page
2. under setup tab look for INTERNET CONNECTION TYPE
3. select PPPoE
fill in username and password
select "keep"alive
save
4. click on status tab
look for LOG in TYPe ===> click CONNECT
if connected : check a valid IP address
if authentication failed verify again your username and password from your ISP

Goodluck!

What a static ip is, is the ip address that the router automatically assigns to other equipment. (computers, xbox, ect.) Find D-links customer support line for help.

Connect your pc to the ATT box. If online, check the ip address of the computer. If the ip address is 192.168.1.x, then you just have to change the router ip address. The wrt54g ip is 192.168.1.1, it may be having conflict with the ATT modem. Change the wrt54g ip to 192.168.2.1

Good Luck

You router may be set to be DHCP enabled so that it allocates the ip addresses automatically to each pc, so check that the pc's network card with connection problems is set in the properties on the TCP/IP line is set to obtain an ip address automatically. You can also try, Start>run then type ipconfig /flushdns to clear the pc ip address and dns. and restart pc. Lastly if you pc is both network cabled and wireless, ensure one or the other is dissabled as this can confuse the ip adress alocation.
