hi all,
I have had this router for a while now and it has been wonderful, all of a sudden though it has started blocking packets on forwarded ports.
The computer has a static ip, the wan in router is configured with a static ip, the modem ports are forwarded to the router and then from the router to the PC, as per normal.
Here are screenies of the logs and all my settings, logs were taken while trying to download of a private tracker. Waited 30 minutes then took them, almost all 1100 log entries are packet blocks.

So far i have tried, turning off SPI, using Endpoint Independent for TCP and UDP, 2 different modems, 2 different computers, enabling DMZ (yes, i made sure to get rid of the port forwarding when doing this) and i think thats everything.
So yeah, nothing has changed, just stopped working all of a sudden. Although other public trackers work, im trying to figure out whether its the router or tracker, no one else on the tracker is having problems though. The tracker im using in these tests is http://www.bitsoup.org so if your a member maybe you can tell me if your having probs too.
I am open to any suggestions and appreciate any input, thanks in advance.

Thats normal. I've requested the exact definition of that error.
-
here is a link of the d-link log file that shows it blocking almost all packets to a port i have open.

changed the WAN ip the router uses when connecting to the modem and adjusted settings suite these changes. Now i can contact more trackers but its blocking heaps of packets. utorrent also suggests that i have a NAT problem, as you can see in this screenie next to speed

-
What is the NAT ENDPOINT FILTER set to?
-
Endpoint independent for both UDP and TCP.
-
any ideas? this is killing my torrents. i Have a torrent with 25 000 seeds/7 900 peers and i can only connect to 15 people, this is beyond a joke.
-
Hi,
i had the same problem with utorrent (manually port forwarded, everything was green etc. but slow speeds due to blocking), so i switched to azureus. even if it uses more ram, seems that torrents work better with it. (also if you use the classic interface as oposed to the vuze thing, it will display stuff faster). it's worth a try
-
I have also seen this type of behavior in my router using utorrent. Do like creator says and give azureus a try. Post the results here.
-
already tried that :(
and yes, i binded the port to to local address (my ip)
-
so whats going to happen now? obviously this is a firmware problem, which i expect will be fixed

Hi chipped,
Question: Have you tried during a Factory Reset of your Router? After it has been reset, go into the Router settings and redo the Wireless Settings, Network Lease Length in Network Settings, Set up the Router Password, turn off the built-in Firewall of the Router, by unchecking SP1 in Firewall Settings. Do not use Forwarded Ports. Everything should go through, if the Firewall is unchecked.
Use a Software Firewall to protect your computer. Test it and see what happens.
-
already done all that, this is killing me :(
its been working fine for months and out of nowhere this started happening. have been trying to fix it for almost a week :'(
-
If I remember right I was getting a similar log entry after I had put a machine into the DMZ. I took it out but was still getting the message, like it was still in DMZ even though the DMZ was no longer enabled. i reset the config file to before I had made the DMZ entry and I no longer got the log entry.
-
The router is blocking packets like a mutha...
I upgraded utorrent to 1.8 and i get the green light for port forwading but still the same amount of blocked packets in the router. At least torrent speed is back to max but still all those blocked packets just dont seem right to me, i can get 2000 in 30 minutes using 1 PC.
-
There is Beta firmware thats available on this site. So far the comments about the Beta Firmware have been great.
-
yeah i know, i have been using it for ages. 1.11_MSBeta39 i think it was.
-
something to do with maxiums sesssion allowable?
Is it like if Dir-655 only has around 200 sessions total..rest of the connections will be blocked. ??
-
thats it! i cant take this anymore, i have removed this router from my network as it just keeps killing halve my connections.

FIXED IT! turns out it was my modem, tried about 4 different firmwares but all of them produced the same results.
was using a Siemens Speedstream 4200, maybe you put this under compatibility problems or somethings.
-
AWESOME! Have you informed your ISP of the issues with the modem?
-
Hi to all, i have the same problem in utorrent and i try bitcomet but the problem continue and also the connection lost each 15min. Before i have a DI-634 and this one are good very very fast. I can believe i spend so much money with this router to a poor results like this. I try 4 differents firmwares and they dont do nothing.
What i can do more before returns the router?
Regards to everyone
-
Same for me, using VUZE, former Azureus

Hold your horses everybody...
The DIR655 (every firmware version) does, IMHO, not have a problem with BT. Because....

3 minutes for a 18 Mb torrent...no rejected packages.
I really think you need to investigate your modemsetting or Torrent client configuration. It's too easy to blame the router. Networking is all about configuration and interoperatability between the devices....plain and simple.
any ideas? this is killing my torrents. i Have a torrent with 25 000 seeds/7 900 peers and i can only connect to 15 people, this is beyond a joke
You can configure your BT client to open up all those seeds/peers. You will defintely crash your PC (TCP/IP limit on Windows XP SP2 & Vista: maximum simultaneous half-open (incomplete) outbound TCP connection attempts per second), your router and modem (no. of connections is also maxed ofcourse).
Windows XP SP2 has a 10 maximum incomplete concurrent connection attempts limit per second, Windows Vista default limit is based on which edition of Vista users are using. For example, Home Basic has maximum limit of 2, and Vista Ultimate is 25 per second. Normal Windows Vista users should not face any problem or slow network connection with the half-open connections limit. However, heavy P2P (peer-to-peer) applications users such as uTorrent, BitTorrent, BitComet, Azureus, ABC, eMule (eDonkey network), etc, or P2PTV such as TVants, PPLive, PPStream, Sopcast, etc may face some error or slow download and upload speed due to this limit.
Please check your Windows logviewer and see if there are Event ID 4226 errors.
And while is was writing this:

Only one blocked packet. Why? I also got a Vista warning, go figure what that was:
