Title: D-Link DIR-825 C1 (LAN ports not working and Language Issue)
Post by: xSolmyRx on March 22, 2016, 01:22:03 AM

Hi All,

I have a D-Link DIR-825 Revision C1 router.

The language is in Korean and I'm not able to find a language pack to alter this - I've tried the latest v3.01 firmware on the D-Link website, but that didn't change anything, apart from the firmware now displaying v3.01 instead of v3.00.

Also, quite possibly a bigger problem, the LAN ports are not working.  I've tried resetting the router by holding in for 10 seconds, and I've also tried the 30/30/30 option, but none of these options work.  I read online that many users experienced this when trying to flash it with DD-WRT, but I've not done this.

Please advise on how to fix the above.

Thank you.

EDIT: I've managed to REMOVE the Language Pack - seems I missed this step previously, but by using B Hardware Version Simulator, I guided myself through the Korean jibberjabber.  Now the issue is just getting the ports to work...

Do you see any change after swapping cables in the PC notification area of windows? Network properties under status? There is a connection rate displayed as well on the properties page of the adapter that your trying to connect.

Tried different devices?

I presume if the LAN ports fail to come back or not working after doing a factory reset and a full power off from the power adapter, that the unit maybe faulty and would need to be RMAd.
