Can anyone refer anyone to do it for me?
-
You able to get the router set up? Try FuryNutz or Harry. They are very knowledgable. They set my stuff up.
-
I am reading into the 4500 but alot of the setting are different looking than whats listed. I dont know if any of them are online.
-
Might have to wait for morning. I don't' know enough but I know they are good and my stuff works great man. I love this router. Im off to play BF3. Might send a PM. Good luck.
-
Wow...Your something else man. After all that racket the other day, now your back. Wow. This could have been done that same day and you would have been probably gaming by now. ::)
Let us know what you've done. I suppose we can help you. :-\

I messed around with the firmware for about an hour last night and went through the 4500 setup with firmware 1.01 and triple checked my settings and still had issues with the LIVE with late messages and couldnt host party chats or games. Im thinking about just waiting on Dlink to issue a newer firmware that fixes these issues. I am interested in how to make the 815 have open nats on both xboxes in the house?! Im sure my son would thank any input on that. But til' 1.01 is fixed Im sticking with 1.00 that is xbox live compatible.
-
Lets have a review of the routers settings first. Can you PM me with the Teamviewer ID and password when you are ready?
-
yea I can in about 20 mins or so.
-
Sure thing. I'll be waiting.

So reviewing the DIR-815 router settings and having multiple game consoles on his system, The 815 doesn't provide IMO, enough QoS options to effect proper configuration of the router for the game consoles to connect well on XBL. This 815 would be good if only he had one. I recommended getting into a DIR-825 or a DGL-4500 for his gaming needs as these would provide better QoS options for gaming on XBL. I'm waiting on him to reply back when he gets the different router in house. ;)
His Apology was accepted. :)

You da man Furry! What people don't understand is there is a couple of people out here that give their personal time to help with D-Link equip. Before you and one or two others came along, there was nothing but people with problems saying they would NEVER buy D-Link again! Here I am using my Dir-825 to the fullest, IPV4, IPV6, all kind of goodies, no problems. The couple of question I had went unanswered untill I got time to try several fixes out myself, no help from D-Link or this forum, untill you came along (did get some help from users of the 655 forum untill I upgraded to the 825)
Hats off to you Sir, for one you have much more patience then I do.

Furry certainly has 10times my patience. I get along with computers and networks more so then people. ;D
-
Will get it worked out. He'll be happier with the 4500 or 825. ;)

Patients belong in hospitals! ;D Computers and networks "usually" do what you tell them, people not so much!

Im going after the DIR-825 this afternoon. I read a review that straight out of the box it has open nat for 2 xboxs? I hope. :) Thanks again for your help.. :)
-
Kewl, well regardless of that. Let us help you set it up man. You'll like it. I like mine. Make sure you get the B version if you can.
-
ok, whats all the different versions? Any benefits? Thanks again for the support.
-
I think that IPv6 isn't supported in Rev A.
-
Okay, I will look through them to see which Rev they have. I called and the guy acted like he didnt know what I was talking about on the phone. :( Oh well.
-
Oh boy. LOL. Ya the Rev information will be on the box on a sticker I believe.
-
yea, the guy there I think didnt feel like looking. >:( I will and hopefully they have it there.
-
Keep us posted.
-
Got the router tonight, Rev B1. Xbox live running great so far. :)
-
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaay. Good to hear man. Now take a look again at the Gaming and Gamefuel sticky. Let me know if you want some help. You'll like this router. ;D
-
:D I hope it will all be ok with this one. It looks good too! I do have a question about it though, On the 815 when I turned on the QOS it would only go to upload speed of 2048kbps. My upload speeds are 3.5megs. I would get alot of lag. Wonder why it only goes to 2048kbps?
-
Were you letting it automatically detect the UL speed or did you put manual?
Keep in mind that if you start to notice some lag while gaming, specially with both consoles going, I would recommend using QoS and settings up the XBL as outlined in the sticky. I use it and works great. ;)
-
I was letting the 815 router manually get the upload speed and it would get only like 766kbps out of the 3.5meg that I have in auto mode. Im not really getting any lag out of the game right now at this time :D I am very happy with your advise to get the 825. Its got alot of features and controls that I will need to use soon. :) I love the extra security features.
-
Enjoy man. Keep us posted on the experiences. ;)
-
I have walked through your guide, im use it for a few days and i will update you ;D
-
Kewl, keep us posted. Hope you had a good weekend.
