Hi there,
By reset I am assuming that you mean you've pressed the reset button on the back of the router for 30 seconds to return it to manufacturer's state?
If this is so, and you're still getting the same problem, You need a new router.
Sorry for the bad news, but routers only last for so long. ESPECIALLY D-link.

Go to their website, and download the driver.

Hi stella_bella,

I see that your D-link Router will not turn on or power up as you mentioned.

If I may ask Have you tried a different power source / Outlet?
also try ti find a different adapter with the same wattage on it and see if the Router will power ON using a different Power Adapter.

When did you notice your D-link not powering ON? was there any power surges lately, that can cause Router or Modem to get busted or damaged if ever you were either online or if the Router was turned on during the power surge.

The only thing you can basically do is try a different Power outlet or power source and a different Power Adapter of the same wattage to avoid damaging the Router more.

I hop that this helps.

Have a nice day,

Hi there,

first of all, I take it your getting to the login page? if not I will explain how to do that after this. If your on the page, the default username is admin and a blank password or username is user and no password. If these dont work then the defaults must have been changed at some point. To sort this you will need to reset the router, use the defaults and set it all up again.

If you cant get to the router page at all then what you need to do is connect to the router with a cable, wait til your computer gets a connection and go to control panel->network connections (XP) or control panel->network and sharing centre->advanced network settings (vista/7) then right click on the connected adapter and select "status" in the next box which appears select details and you will get a window which shows all of the settings of the network connection. The one you are looking for is the default gateway (it should be something like 192.168.0.1) If the area is blank then you are not getting an ip address from your router so a reset may be your best route) Open up your internet browser and type this address into the address bar (not the search box) and press enter, you should be presented with your routers webpage.

Hope this was some help.

It may not be the router, but rather the internet itself, There have been major slowdowns, lately.....One thing to try is to change the router channel to 11, as the default channel cinflicts with cordless land line phones, even 3/4 miles away....

All you have to do is connect to the router and secure the connection follow the following steps: -
First you have to access the router through web browser (Internet Explorer) by typing the IP address of your router in the address bar, which is 192.168.0.1 (Default router settings are written under the router) (unless you've configured otherwise, the default username is admin and the password "leave it blank") and lookup for the options to do the following: -
1. Change the SSID (Name) of the router
2. Change the default administrative user name and password
(The above step would prevent unauthorized access to your router)

Next step is to secure it:
1.On the left-hand side, under Setup, click "Wireless Setup" 2.Under "Wireless Security Mode", select your desired encryption method (preferably WPA2-PSK)
3.Choose a Network Key - it can be anything, as long as it's 8-63 characters in length
4. Click Save Settings.
Now your router and your connection would become secure and the user has to provide the network key to access the internet.
Please, refer here to download the product guide/manual and make configurations as per the details provided by your Internet Service Provider (ISP).
Let me know if any further clarification/ assistance is required.

Hope it helps! Good Luck!

make sure that you have given a valid username and password

In order to get your router back to the original settings, you must push in the reset button (usually on the back of the router) for somewhere between 10 and 30 seconds depending on the router. You may need a pin or something small to push in the button, because it can be recessed. Once you have reset the router, the username and password will be changed to the defaults, admin and password, respectively. One thing you must remember is that resetting the router will change all of the router settings back to the factory settings. This means you will lose all of the changes you made since you got the router. Make sure to write down any things you've changed, so you can change them back after the reset. Also, I recommend updating to the latest firmware after the reset.
