Recently, we had an outage. When our electricity came back on, our internet came on to our computer but not to the other 2 computers in our house. I called tech suppport at Adelphia and found out that it was probably my router. To find this out, they had me disconnect and reconnect cables. They said I would have to reconfigure. Does this sound right to you?
Thanks,
Sara Wathen

The router works the same with either dsl or cable modems. If the router was working with your other computers before, then it should work now, you don't have to change anything.
Login in using your browser and go to the wireless settings and set-up a wireless password/key. Remember the key because each device will now need it to connect. You can also turn OFF Broadcast SSID and your network name will not be shown on anyone's device. You must remember the network name when using this method.
You do not need the disc. Using you browser, login into the router using the default IP 192.168.0.1 unless this has been changed and you should be able to configure your router.
g´day m8, Your D-Link AirPlus G DI-524 Wireless
Router needs a hard reset.
Log in to your
router, go to -> administration -> factory default -> Restore Factory Defaults: =
"yes" Then save settings.
You have now reset
the router.
First thing you do is
set your wireless setup in your computer to the same, i.e. no security. Test if there is
connection, if, the start with the setup from the top, beginning with admin
password. /Teis

Try upgrading the firmware through the Routers Web Interface , and see if this will fix the problem otherwise the only other way around it is to do what you are currently doing and unplug and plug it back in, perhaps the AP was damaged as a result of a power surge , if the problem persists best bet is to buy a new one.
You need to disable the DHCP server on your "slave" wireless router ( the di-524 ). In D-link routers this might be called configuring it to be an "Access point".
When this happens, connecting to the second wireless router should cause your computer to obtain an IP address which is in the range of the first router (that is to say, it will use the first router's dhcp server).
You should be able have your laptop connect with an automatic IP address and have it work.
