If you want to reboot your router, follow below steps. If someone is using a computer on your network to access the internet, you may want to warn them. Press “Enter” to go to the D-Link Wireless router configuration page. Press “Enter.” Click the “Wireless Settings” on the left side of the router page. Then click on “Save Settings”. Close the window to save the new password. For security purposes, it is recommended to change the router default password. The D-Link router’s administrator User name and Password are different from the wireless network name (SSID or WiFi Username and password) and passphrase of your wireless network. After performing the upgrade, go through the Resetting of the D Link router to factory defaults section again of this page. Follow below links. Here are some such examples, we have come across. One is 5 seconds, the other one is 10 seconds. Try to find out best value.

I did a factory reset in December 2012, which caused it to revert to a date in 2005, as there is no internal clock on the device. I am unable to reset the time manually because the drop-down choices do not go past Dec. 31, 2012, and I am not getting a response when selecting the NTP option. Is my router completely obsolete? help? Have you tried the latest version? Compare the latest version to the factory-installed one. If it differs, download the firmware and follow the remaining steps outlined in How do I upgrade the firmware on my DI series router?: Click on the Browse button and browse to the.bin (or.dlf) file you downloaded. Highlight the file by clicking on it once and click Open. If your WiFi connection drops during the upgrade, your router might become unusable.

After you have solved the problem, repeat this test. Windows XP was designed with features and installation wizards specifically for home networking. Download the Windows Setup instructions for easy printing. Please disregard the note to install the network adapters and turn on all peripherals. That will be done in a later step. I do not have a network yet as the specific Internet connection method and click Next. It should be a description that differentiates it from the other computers that will be on the network (For example, office desktop). The name cannot contain any spaces or special characters. All computers connected to your network must be assigned to the same workgroup. Because radio waves are used to transfer information between your networked computers, it's possible for hackers to intercept this information. Taking advantage of the security features built into your D-Link router can make it much more difficult for hackers to access your personal information. The level of protection required for your home network is dependent on the type of information stored on your home network. You have to decide what level of protection you need and how you are going to provide that protection. This section provides information on the most basic steps to increase the security of your home network. It is not intended to include a description of all the possible security features provided by the D-Link router. Take a few minutes now to improve the security of your home network by changing the initial settings of your D-Link router to provide the level of protection you need. Periodically, you should maintain the security of your home network by changing your router password, SSID, and WEP key. Note: You may have already completed some of the initial security updates listed below during installation. Simply skip the steps that you have already completed. Initial Security Settings Change the wireless settings Download the complete instructions for printing If these values are not changed, it's easier for hackers to access your network and information. It's important that you not only change your user name and password from the default, but that you continue to change it regularly. There are two accounts set up on your router: the User and Administrator accounts. Because the Administrator account can make changes to your network settings, it's very important to change the Administrator user name and password. MAC address filtering allows you to specify the computers that can access the network. This makes it much more difficult for hackers to break into your home network. You will use this MAC address to specify the only computers allowed to connect to your home network. Download the complete instructions for printing This prevents your router from responding to anyone pinging your WAN IP address. Hackers ping public WAN IP addresses to determine if a WAN IP address is valid. If you select Enabled in the Discard PING from WAN side, your D-Link router won't respond to the electronic signal (ping), and the hacker won't receive a message back verifying whether the WAN IP address is valid. If you have no additional computers to connect, you can skip to Step 6. The directions are much simpler and generally take less than five minutes to complete. If you're unsure about whether you have a wireless network adapter, you can use Windows Device Manager to determine whether you have one installed. Then install wireless network adapters to connect notebook computers or computers that are farther away from the router. This ensures that all the connections are secure, and the hardware configurations are working properly. The Verizon home page should display. Then install wireless network adapters to connect notebook computers or computers that are farther away from the router. When you're ready, the next step to get the maximum benefits from your home network is to configure Windows to share folders and printers. Be sure to check your notebook computer to see if it already has a network card. The wireless router is generally able to go through two or three walls before it loses connectivity. If the signal hits a wall at an angle, the signal appears much larger and decreases its strength. You can't update any security settings unless you know the user name and password and can access the router's configuration utility. The D-Link router will automatically reboot itself. This includes the default SSID and WEP encryption key. You must re-configure your D-Link router to match the previous settings that were assigned to all the other devices on your wireless network. Otherwise, no other network devices will be recognzied.
