Title: Sporadic internet, good connection
Post by: pooley on June 12, 2009, 11:28:54 AM
I posted this over on the DIR 615 forum as well, but since I'm using this adapter, I'll post here as well!

I recently purchased the DIR 615 and wireless n usb adapter from D-link. I set up the router via the packaged software and have no problem seeing the network and connecting to it using my WPA passcode.

I've had success accessing the internet during the first hour of use, however after that I cannot access the internet or connect to the router via the web application. I am still able to have a slow download connection but just can't access the internet.

The weird thing is that windows xp and the dlink adapter software can see the network and tell me I have a good or very good connection (3 or 4 full bars) while this is happening. Because of that, I'm wondering if it's some computer settings that are messing me up and not the router? Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

I have experienced this.  It seems that your Internet security software might be causing the DWA-130 to be forced to "deauthenticate" the wireless network.  I seen this with both Norton 360 and Internet Security 2009 software.  Until you tell this type of software to "trust" the wireless network name (aka SSID) this problem could continue.
