Title: Router Problem
Post by: crampao on October 10, 2013, 06:43:17 AM
Hi. I have a problem with my dir-605l router. So i always get disconnected after 5-10mins of browsing/etc and the only solution is to restart my modem. As you know this gets annoying cause i have to wait 2-3mins to reconnect again only to be disconnected 5-10mins after reconnecting. I tried to test if its my isp but its not. I tried to not use the router and just use the modem itself and i didnt have any disconnection. Im looking forward for help. Im a newbie in this field btw. Thanks in advance.

I recommend doing a factory reset and set up the router from scratch and test to see if your problem comes back.

What ISP Modem Mfr. and model # do you have? Please let us know this information. Regardless of prior operation, there could have been some form of signal change to the ISP modem that could effect how the router works. The router depends on the ISP modem getting good signal from the ISP service. I recommend having your ISP check all signal and cabling going to the DSL modem to ensure it's working properly and is filtered correctly. Interferences can also cause bad services. You'll need to contact your ISP and have them confirm and check this.

Try MTU values 1422 and 1450 and test. You can always change the value. Ask your ISP what MTU value they support and you should be using.

What ISP Modem service link speeds UP and Down do you have? Meaning what speeds do you pay for from your ISP? I pay for 50Mb down and 2Mb up from mine as an example.

Please place the router farther away from the computer. It should not be near it.

Try switching the WiFi mode to single mode G or N or mixed G and N

Channel Width set for Auto 20/40Mhz or try 20Mhz only by selecting the drop down or radio button for Auto 20/40Mhz.

Try setting security to WPA2 and AES only, Iphones support these modes.

Yes, who makes the ISP modem, there should be a label or branding of the modem and model information on a sticker.

Wireless modes selection should be under Setup/Wireless/Manual

You'll need to phone contact your regional D-Link support office and ask for help there. There could be a router issue or just a configuration issue here that needs to be reviewed by D-Link.

Let us know how it turns out...
