- 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 and 5Ghz routers: Try single mode G or N or mixed G and N on 2.4Ghz and single mode N on 5Ghz?
- Channel Width set for Auto 20/40Mhz or try 20Mhz only.
- Try setting a manual Channel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_channel) to a open or unused channel. 1, 6 or 11. 11 for single mode N if the channel is clear.
- 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.
- Any cordless house phones?
- Any other WiFi routers in the area? Link> Use InSSIDer (http://www.metageek.net/) to find out. How many?
- If you have any of these options, Try turning OFF or ON Short GI (http://www.smallnetbuilder.com/wireless/wireless-features/30969-what-do-80211ns-optional-features-mean-for-you), WLAN Partition, HT 20/40 Co-exhistance and Extra Wireless Protection if you have it. Recommended settings are default. Under Advanced/Advanced Wireless.
Router Placement
Forum User - "Well I feel really dumb. After moving the router away from other electronic devices my speeds are back to normal. Just a heads up for anyone experiencing slow speeds, you might want to move it away from other electronics and see if that helps."
6" minimum safe distance between devices.
Try having the iPhone "Forget this Network", reboot the iPhone then try to reconnect...

Try this, disable the WPA/WPA2 security temporarily and then try to connect the phones? Do they connect then?
-
Even disable WPA/WPA2 I can't to connect WiFi
Another tip?

I would do the following, download the latest FW build for your region, unpack the .bin file.

Using IE or FF with add-ons and any PC 3rd party security programs disabled temporarily.
Turn off ALL other devices and connect up 1 wired LAN pc to the router. Disconnect the ISP modem from the router. Just you, PC and router.
Factory reset the router from the Tools/System menu.
Send the .bin FW file from the Tools/Firmware and let it process and reboot.
After it reboots, do one more factory reset, plug in ISP modem cable and then set up the router from scratch.
Setup SSID and PW, try single mode G, WPA2 and TPIK only and test your WiFi devices.
Let us know the results...
