First try replacing the LAN cable between the modem and router. Hard reboot bother devices (off 10 sec then back on). Connect to the modem with a LAN cable to make certain it is working correctly.
The final solution is a factory reset of your router. You can do a factory reset by logging into the router using you browser. Go to the settings and perform a factory reset

If you forgot the router password, you ill have to do a factory reset by locating a small hold on the back of the router and insert the tip of of paper clip for about 10 seconds while the power is on. The router will be reset to out of box status and then you can set-up form scratch.

SOURCE: Need latest firmware file for

It is responding... you are probably suffering the same issue as me. For some reason the MTU setting is causing issues with accessing the D-LINK website. The 2730B however does not allow you to change that setting anywhere (how ironic).
Your option is to use something like DrTCP (assuming you are using Windows) to change the setting on your local machine. Suggest changing to 1492 for the adapter you are using to connect to the Net (should make sense once you run the application).
This is what I did, and worked for me. Hope this helps you.
P.S. I'm about to throw the thing in the bin. It's got so many issues, the last D-Link product I ever buy.

SOURCE: There is an Excellent signal but it's not connecting

That´s because of the ip assignment you have to set the ip of the router in the same net work ip scale of you modem that connects you to your isp example if ip modem is 192.168.0.10 then the ip you must set on the wan port mustbe 192.168.0.100, also check that you are connecting the out of the modem to the wanport on the wireless router.

Hope it helps

Reset my dlink dir 615 router and now internet light stays flashing orange

Do you have the Internet connected to the Internet port in the back of the DLINK? You will have to configure the DLINK for internet access. Open a web browser to your DLINK and check on the configuration under internet-setup. Select the type of internet connection you have i.e. DHCP, PPPoE, Static, etc. Once that is set up, you should have access to the internet like before.

External antenna support for Dlink 2730b.

You should be able to. Most Dlink wireless boxes use a RP-SMA (rp=reverse polarity) connector on the external antenna. So you make or buy a cable to go from the male RP-SMA on the box to whatever is on the antenna (female RP-SMA obviously if you use the same antenna).

If you are going to go to the trouble, I would suggest buying a better antenna also. A directional like the small parabolic dishes work well if getting the signal from once direction.

Globe symbol won't turn green.

I was banging my head for 2 days with about 35 different configurations and finally tried the following and it worked just fine. Also, tried connecting 3 computers and they all connected with "NO" issues. Even connected wireless with "NO" issues. Now I am at 20mb download speed...J compared to AT&T 1.5mb download speed.

This is my DLINK model -> (DIR-601 Wireless N 150 Home Router Wireless router)


1. Reset your Comcast Surfboard Cable Modem by unplugging it for 5 minutes.

2. Then reset your DLINK Router to the manufactures default settings. Then Unplug DLINK Router for 1 minute then plug it back in (Just plug your cat5 cable into port 1 and connect it to your computer) there should not be anything else plugged into the DLINK Router at the time you make the changes. Just 1 computer can be connected.

3. Went into the DLINK configuration 192.168.0.1 and changed the PPPOE setting that I was using for my AT&T Modem to Dynamic IP (DHCP). Once you make the changes save them and then unplug your DLINK Router it's off.

4. Turn on Comcast Surfboard Cable Modem and wait until all lights are on. Now plug in a cat5 cable from the Surfboard Comcast modem (NOT A CROSSOVER CABLE LIKE THE CD INDICATES) to the INTERNET port of your DLINK Router. Now turn on your DLINK router.

5. Then turn on your computers or restart them and it will pick up IP Addresses from your DLINK Router

Problem with DPR-1260

this kind of problem occurs in dlink router sometimes & after some time router stop responding after 10 -15 min & once u reboot the router it again start work for a while. the best solution to this problem is to reset the router back to its factory defualt settings u can do this by press the reset button on the back on the router ( it looks like a small hole u have to use a pin for press that button) once u have reset the router to factory default settings just reconfig the router & i am sure it will start working fine in case u still face the same problem just contact D-link or send me the details about the problem & the physical setup of ur router & printer etc
