Title: Unable to connect wirelss G to 615
Post by: wireless_confused on February 16, 2010, 10:12:14 AM

I have a DIR 615 (behind a Verizon FIOS modem) and while wireless N works ok, cannot get my wireless G to connect (three separate laptops all failing) - says "authenticating" while obtaining an i/p address, but nothing beyond that. Tried setting the encryption to "AES", but not sure what else to try.

All wired connections work OK.

Hardware:C1 and firmware:3.11NA.
Any thoughts appreciated.
THanks

did you setup your dir-615 in mixed g/n mode? you need to do that. Also, I would recommend WPA 2 so you can bypass that authentification issue.

Thanks for your response.

I tried what you suggested but it won't let me save the settings.

Any ideas why?

I'm really getting fed up with this.  >:(

Edit:

Ok I manage to get it saved. I had to get into the router via 191.168.0.1 in order to save the configuration.

I now can get internet access with dlink usb recievers wua1340 and dwa-125. However I'm still having the same problems using Netgear wpn111v2 adapter.

Thanks for the help. It worked for the most part.  8)

good to hear that you made some progress. Another thing, did you setup your security to WPA2? I had the issue with windows and authentification before I changed to WPA2 (which includes AES).

There is a way to work around the authentification in the properties of the adapter. You have to uncheck the box in the options. Look it up on the internet, I am sure you can find a walkthrough for that.

Yes I did do that. It seems to fix the issue with the wua1340 and dwa125.

Thanks.  I'll check it out and report back.
