Title: Web pages take to long to load
Post by: LaRSin on May 11, 2009, 07:44:40 AM
Web pages take to long to load,

If I unhook the router and plug directly into the Modem everything pops right up ,But when hooked up to the router it takes forever to load a web page,

I just upgraded to the new firmware 1.31 (had the problem before I upgraded with firmware 1.21 )
I'm wired in ,The rest of the family is wireless and have the same problem,
I've Reset to factory and loaded my settings, Same problems.

It's just frustrating. I have had this router for about 5 months and it has worked not bad , But now it just not working right at all.

have you tried NOT using/loading the saved config and configure manually from scratch? It is possible that there's a config error in the saved file.

Also, the connection with your modem could be the culprit.

It takes a long time to manualy enter everything , That's if I can remember all the things I have had to do to get it work in the first place,

Not sure what you mean buy connection with the modem may be the problem (cable) ?????????

Just configure it manually. Otherwise you can never eliminate the possibility of an errored config.
You can make screenprints in order to remeber the info required.

Your cablemodem also needs to communicate with the router. How is you WAN conncetion enabled in the router setup:
- Dynamic, static,PPPoE (http://192.168.0.1/Basic/WAN.shtml)
- How's your WAN port speed cconfigures (http://192.168.0.1/Advanced/Network.shtml)

Reason for this is that routers/modems can be very picky when it comes to the way they are to be connected. You need to try different settings in this area too to get to the bottom of the issue.

I'm sorry eddie but that make know sence at all , I had the same problem before and same problem now,
Most of user's here just want to plug it in , and should work (my linksys is like that ) We should not have to jump through hoops to get it to work,

Now your saying start over , Re enter all the ip addresses and configure all the setting manualy , Even when they are the same , that's entered now , Because in the rare chance (million to 1) there might be a an errow in the config.

I can give you the link of the Linksys forum, filled with the same issues that people have with Dlink devices.
Just to put it into perspective. And ofcourse, mine worked out-of-the-box (or maybe some knowledge helps).

If you know how to solve your own issue, why are you publishing on the board? It's your choice you don't want to do structured issue resolving. But if you just want to complain about your router, please put it into the topic title so people don't get confused and try to help you.

Gotta love it when people really don't want help. But they post here anyway :D.
His suggestion makes perfect sense to me. Just do it!
