Title: Change of LAN IP causes total reset
Post by: petteyg359 on November 10, 2007, 08:25:59 PM

I just got a Rev A DIR-615. Changing settings for anything works fine. Until I try to change the LAN IP to 192.168.1.1 that is. When I change that and hit 'save', the router does a 60-second reboot, and when it comes back, every setting is back to factory default. Anybody else experience this? I'm using the latest (1.10) firmware.

No - you aren't the only one - and I've got a Rev A 615 (1.10 firmware) as well.

My issue (which is why I registered on the forums) isn't specific to changing the LAN IP, but rather that the box will either reset itself to factory or - often - just "hang" after bootup indefinitely until I have to reset it.

Have you called D-Link about it yet? I got mine mail order, so I was just going to call them and try to RMA it (maybe rev B doesn't have the issue?) instead of dealing with the mail-order company.

I got mine at Radio Shack. Am seriously considering returning it as it has revealed its software to be a POS. The range and signal strength are amazing, I just wish the dang software worked. I've recently started getting 'Disconnecting (deauth) wireless client: ffffffffffff (Reason3)' and then it goes on with the same message for every wireless MAC connected and drops them. This is happening every 5 minutes now.

Yep - I have that in my logs, as well.

I think it's telling that the D-Link technical reps don't frequent this particular board. They're very often in the other product areas, but not here.

D-Link: Should we be calling to RMA our product, then, or...?

Look to browser cache. Also make sure that you release and renew your ip address before attempting to log in to the device.

I think you might have responded to the wrong topic.

How does seeing errors in the log and having configurations resetting have anything to do with a browser cache?

Again, two issues:

1) Configuration resets itself (often after a long period of hanging during power startup).

2) We see frequent "'Disconnecting (deauth) wireless client: ffffffffffff (Reason3)" messages in the logs (which continue to occur, and we're able to log into the device (etc, etc, etc).

Can you help?
