Title: transmission rate missing from wireless network settings
Post by: nipmads on February 04, 2013, 09:13:55 PM

Hi there,

Happy d-link user here, however I'm having issues with the dir-615 router.

Firstly - I have had a DIR-655 for years, and this is a treat - channeling everything from IPTV, to a fast fiber connection, transfers - no sweats.

Then I had to setup a router for a friend, and recommended the DIR-615.

Setup the router, and max it would connect with was 150mb - I changed the settings accordingly:
auto channel scan
channel width: auto 20/40mhz

So this "opened" up the 300mb speed - however only for 5 mins, then it falls down to 150mb.

My laptop (lenovo) connects to the dir-655 just fine at full speed, and this is also the machine I used for testing the dir-615.

It's ax Hx firmware, FW: 8.04

What I can conclude by using inssider, and xirrus wifi inspector is that it generates 2 channels - and then after 5mins of connectivity looses a channel, and then the speed drops.

I got a new router from the dealer, same issue. Then a friend of mine lent me an ancient dir-615, and interestingly enough this had the same configuration option of "Transmission rate" in the wireless settings page! Just like the dir-655.

and also connects at 300mb...

This option is missing from the 615, please advise :-)

any ideas?

What region are you located?

Can you post a image of the Advanced/Adv Wireless section here in the forums? You'll need to upload it to a photo site like photobucket or imageshack and then copy and paste the [IMG] URL here in the forums and then the picture will be displayed here for us to review.

Try setting your 802.11 Mode to Mixed G and N or Single mode N only.
Turn Short GI OFF.

Any other WiFi routers in the area? Link> Use InSSIDer (http://www.metageek.net/) to find out. How many?
