Title: DIR-655 no N mode on Nexus 7 or HTC ONEX+
Post by: ivicask on August 31, 2013, 02:14:15 AM

SO i have this problem over half year now, but i was thinking some update will solve it so i waited, now my nexus 7 received android 4.3 update, and my ONEX+ 4.2.2 android upgrade, i also upgrade DIR-655 to latest Firmware Version: 2.11NA.

My problem is both of devices cant connect in WIFI N mode, i tried every possible combination of channels, Channel Width, Transmission rate, encryption, no encryption, but it still connect in max 54Mbit, if i set router to WIFI N only mode, devices see network but cant connect to it, authentication problem or network problem (no encryption active)

On other hand i have over 5 devices connected to same router who work just fine, HTC Sensation 72MBit , HTC Wildifre 72Mbit, LG TV almost 300mbit, sisters laptop 125 Mbit i  think and so..

Only Nexus and ONE X+ never connect more than 54Mbit.

At work i have DSL-2641B router and both devices work just fine there and connect 72Mbit rate(N)

So this must be some incompatibility with this DIR-655  router and this 2 devices (NEXUS 7, ONEX)

I hope someone can help me here about this, thanks.

• What region are you located?
• Has a Factory Reset been performed?
• Was a Factory Reset performed before and after any firmware updates?

• Ensure the default (dlink) SSID name is changed. Can be anything and not something thats already in use by any neighboring WiFi routers. Under Setup/Wireless/Manual.
• What wireless modes are you using?
• 2.4Ghz Routers only: Try single mode G then try N or mixed G and N?
• Channel Width set for Auto 20/40Mhz or try 20Mhz only.

]

• What security mode are you using? Preferred security is WPA-Personal. WPA2/AES Only. Some WiFi adapters don't support AES (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Encryption_Standard), so you might want to try TPIK (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temporal_Key_Integrity_Protocol) only or Auto TPIK and AES.

Let us know if any of the above underlined settings work...Turn OFF ALL other devices accept for the 2 in question. This could be an incompatibility issue if other devices are working correctly on N and G modes and these 2 don't.

I have tried exactly everything u wrote, and more! But as i wrote, its strange only this 2 Tegra based devices have problem with this router.

Is there any way i can help you fix this? I mean by providing logs from devices and router maybe if its possible?

EDIT: I reseted router again now after this latest firmware was flashed and it got FIXED!

I did reset it before but i never worked, so new firmware + device reset fixed it, thanks for reminding me to try reset it again, thank you very much!

Awesome. Glad its' working now. There was some Mfr fixes to Samsung devices which may have included some for yours as well.

Enjoy.  ;)
