Title: blank page in wireless setup
Post by: hwally on December 14, 2011, 07:48:57 PM

I'm setting up A DAP-1522 in bridge mode.  Network setup went fine.  When I went to wireless setup I got a blank page, all white no letters, nothing.  I've logged out and back in again with the same results.  Any ideas?  Thanks

What browser are you using IE 8 or 9? If so, try using the compatibility mode for IE.
Try installing a different browser like Opera or FF and try again.

I'm using the latest version of firefox   I have a dir-655 router that is connected to the internet.  That will be my AP.  I want to use the dap 1522 as a wireless bridge to connect another computer.  Do you know of a simple tutorial that will help me accomplish that.  Thanks for the prompt and helpful attention.

This is a very well known problem with firmware 1.31. In order to configure that page, you must use (any version of) IE. It will just appear blank in Firefox and Chrome.

D-link has fixed this problem in firmware 1.40, but for some reason they have been sitting on it for about 6 months now and haven't released it to the masses. I shake my head wondering what goes on in companies like D-Link (and TomTom) that cause such simple problems like this to linger for so long without them seemly doing anything about it.

If you're interested, you can download 1.40 from D-Link Taiwan support site here:

Just curious, is this version of FW in English or multi language? I wouldn't want to mess up someones device by loading an incorrect language.

Also need to know what hardware version the OP has. There is Rev A and B.
v1.40 will not work on Rev B models.

Good point. I forgot that D-Link released a Rev B. That's probably why they never released 1.40 for Rev A. Now that Rev B is out, no one over there cares about Rev A.

nice, don't we feel special?

Well I think they probably do it on a case by case basis now. I presume people can get what they need if they called and asked. Ya go to the hassle. I do agree, wish they would just be more proactive and post fixes for older HW.  ::)
