Low speed or no connectivity when 2 comps share the home network traffic on DI-714p+ wireless router
I bought this second hand router with out knowing the old password in ythe set up process. So the wizwrd persistantly sends '401' error when trying to follow the set up steps and I can't finish set up. After resetting and restoring it to its original setting, we were able to receive signals and connect to internet, but it delivers a very low speed and gets disconnected from the internet when 2 computers are used simultaneously,or sometimes can't receive wireless coverage. Any upgrade software, or solution ? I'd appreciate it if you sent your advice to [email protected] , bec I'm leaving office. Thanks
If you can log into the router and check the firmware version? It is usually under the Admin tab, you should see something saying firmware. If you could reply with that I might have a solution.

You can disable the network card to block all Internet access.
This doesnt help though when you want to check your email etc.
Try turning off Windows Automatic updates, and any antivirus automatic updates, these two things are the bane of wireless broadband users as it will use most of their data before they even realise.
If you don't know your pre shared key or forgotten it. You need to access the configuration page of your router and create a new network name and a sign a new network key or pre shared key. Create the profile of your SSID/Wireless network connetion under wireless settings.
Password protect your connection, if you are using Internet sharing option, limit the number of connections to 2 (one for you and the other for your neighbor no. 1)
yes it does but what exactly is this it's your comp that's not connecting to your wireless network..so here try these steps...
first click start>click in start search>in that box type in services>it gives you an option of services on the same start menu at the top click on that...
it will take you to a new screen that says services at the top on that screen you need to scroll down at the bottom and look for wlan auto configuration rt click on it and click start if start is greyed out press restart....
close services down..
click start>click connect to form the start menu> and check it gives your network name in there .if it says anything like no network found in range. pls make sure that wireless switch on your laptop is turned on...
if still you're not able to connectr it's a concern with the drivers of wireless adapter on your comp genrally on new comps its quite common get the drivers reinstalled....
It is recommended to enable encryption on your wireless router before your wireless network adapters. Please establish wireless connectivity before enabling encryption.
Note: Your network will slow down and wireless signal may degrade when enabling encryption due to the added overhead.
Step 1 Log into the web configuration of the router by opening up a web browser and typing in the IP address of the router (192.168.0.1).
Step 2 Enter your username (admin) and your password (blank by default). Click OK . Click the Home tab and click the Wireless button on the left hand side of the screen.
Step 3 Select Enable next to the WEP radio buttons. For WEP encryption select 64, 128, or 256-bit encryption. For the Key type select HEX. If you have an option for Authentication type, select Shared Key.
Step 4 Select Key 1. Enter a Hex encryption key that you make up. The length of the encryption key will depend on what you selected under WEP Encryption.
64-bit encryption 10 characters
128-bit encryption 26 characters
256-bit encryption 58 characters (available on DI-614+ only)
The encryption key is HEX, meaning 0-9 and A-F are valid characters. For example, A4583DFF1A (64-bit HEX key).
Step 5 Click on the Apply button then click on the Continue button to save your settings.
Note: If using non-D-Link adapters, please refer to the manufacturer´s documentation on enabling encryption.
