Title: DIR 615 drops wireless connection every 2 ~3 min.
Post by: jenn on January 02, 2011, 01:59:16 PM

I bought a DIR 615 one week ago. And I am struggling to get the “normal” wireless connection with my T41 laptop these days.

The wireless connection drops every 2 ~ 3 minutes, by using “Access Connection” program, I can see the laptop try to obtain new IP address after that. I have no idea why the device keeps on “recycling” IP address.

By the way the speed is only 11.0Mbps when it connected. It’s new DIR 615 Rev. E and 5.00 firmware. After search the internet, I found I got a “junk” device. Any chance to let the device work “normal”?

Also, there are various models for the E revision, E1, E2, E3, E4. If you do decided to give DD-WRT a try, make sure you get the right one for your model.

Before you try other options, Try using G mode only at 2.4Ghz with out a password just for a test and see if you seen the same issue. Then go back and set a password using WPA2 and mixed TPIK and AES with a password. Let us know how it goes.
