Title: DIR-601 was on XP Computer - Now on New Windows 7 Computer - problem
Post by: rockbottombill on December 31, 2010, 06:51:07 PM

My DIR-601 was originally installed on my old computer with Windows XP.  I just bought a new computer with Windows 7.  I unplugged the DIR-601 from the Old computer and plugged it into the new Windows 7 computer.  Internet works on the computer but when my son tries to access the network with his new I Touch, the DIR-601 log in come up on his screen and when he enters the password it does not connect.

Is this because I should have installed the DIR-601 with the set up disk?  I tried to do so and the procedure blocked when I plugged in the power to the DIR-601 after plugged in the Ethernet cable from the computer to the DIR-601.

I do not know how to fix this problem?  Any suggestions.

Try to re-setup the wifi.

Go into your router click setup on top, click Wireless Settings on the side, click Wireless Network Setup Wizard and follow the wizard.  That might work.
