Title: Router DIR-651 globe/earth keeps blinding nonstop with slow internet.
Post by: DavidF0279 on January 18, 2014, 10:55:42 AM

Hi, I need help on what I should do. The globe/earth symbol on my DIR-651 wont stop blinking and my internet has been slower than when I upgraded my internet speed. Sometimes the globe symbol turns orange and I lose internet. When I upgraded my internet speed, the globe/earth symbol light used to be constant and rarely blinks. I used to download things at max of 500-600KPBPS(I know I still have slow internet lol) now I download things at 220-260KBPS, what should I do??! :-[

• For DSL/PPPoE connections on the router, ensure that "Always ON" option is enabled.
