Title: Can't uncheck WMM option
Post by: dave182 on April 28, 2014, 01:06:04 AM
Hi guys. First of all I'm the first time that I post here so I say hello to everyone.

I've this issue: my router 605L works perfectly in 99% of cases, but I discovered that I've a big issue with airplay connection between my iPad air (and also a iPod Touch 5g) and a Apple TV 2G. It doesn't work, the ios device can't see the Apple TV and the airplay option on the device doesn't appear. It appears once on 30 times.

I tested the connection with other routers and everything seems work perfectly. I found on the internet that disabling the WMM function can solve the issue but this funcion on my router is greyed and I can't modify it. There is something that I can do to disable this option in order to make a test?

Thanks really a lot in advance.

D-Link routers most have this enabled by default and it's been grayed out with out any ability to configure it. I believe it's either due to WiFi setting dependency or requirement for WMM or by design of this feature. Can you try setting single mode G, WPA and TPIK only with Auto 20/40 or 20Mhz only and enable HT-20/40Mhz co-existence under Advanced/Adv WiFi settings if you have it? Then try to disable WMM.

What browser are you using?
Try Opera or FF? If IE 8, 9, 10 or 11, set compatibility mode and test again.
Disable any security browser Add-ons like No Script and Ad-Block or configure them to allow All Pages when connected to the router.
Clear all browser caches.
Be sure to log into the Admin account on the router.
Try turning off these features in Chrome:
Top right corner, little bars for options > Settings > Settings (on left) > Show advanced settings.
Uncheck these:

  • Ensure the default (dlink) SSID name is changed. Can be anything and not something that's 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 or N or mixed G and N?

This should sort things out...Dlink has ****py firmware;loads of default settings which are problematic to airplay.
