Title: New DIR-860l shows only orange flashing power symbol
Post by: Evilonkel on September 29, 2016, 08:29:38 AM
Hello  :)

I've just bought a new DIR-860l router, connected it to the power supply and my modem. The only thing that happens is that the power symbol on the front starts flashing orange (still after some hours). No new wlan access point is visible. Even over a direct LAN connection, I can't get into the user interface. Hopefully somebody in this forum is able to help me  :)

Best regards,

Evilonkel

-Hardware Version: B1
-Firmware Version: 2.03
-Region: Germany

-My ISP Service: Unitymedia (Cable)
-My ISP Modem:Horizon HD Recorder (modem with built-in router)
-150 mbit/s dl 5 mbit/s upload
-the cable between router and modem is working
-it's not possible to change the D-Link router IP-configuration because it's even not possible to reach the routers interface. It seems that the router does not working properly at all.

So i you disconnect the DIR router from the ISP modem and just have one wired PC connected to the DIR router, can you access the DIR routers web page at 192.168.0.1?
Do a factory reset and try accessing the routers web page with IE11 or FF while it's not connected to the ISP modem.

I presume if this fails, then you'll need to return the DIR router for a replacement or contact your regional D-Link support office and ask for an RMA.
