Title: DLINK DIR-615 not getting DCHP
Post by: pelopiinxo on June 28, 2017, 02:45:58 AM
Hi there,

As the title says I have a D-Link DIR-615 at my work place and since today in the morning it stopped working. I have 2 routers, one with the server that gives network to the whole building (Dell) and the D-Link. The D-Link it's used to give Wi-fi to the building since the Dell router it's on the 1st floor and the office it's a the 2nd floor.

So, the Dell router it's working because everyone who has Ethernet connection can work, and the ones who work with Wi-fi don't. I tried restarting both routers and reseting de D-Link but it doesn't worked. I supose it's  DHCP problem because when I go into Status>Device Info says "DHCP Connecting...". I also checked that the cable works, and it does because i'm writing this connected to that cable.

Any suggestion or recomendation?

Thanks.

Is the Dell router the main host router and are you using the 615 just for wireless access and range?

  • What Hardware version is your router? Look at sticker under the router case.
  • Link>What Firmware (http://forums.dlink.com/index.php?topic=47512.0) version is currently loaded? Found on the routers web page under status.
  • What region are you located?

Is the Dell router the main host router and are you using the 615 just for wireless access and range?

The hardware version: D5
Firmware Version : 1.01VG
I'm from Spain.

I tried uploading a new firmware but I get the following error: The chosen file is not a valid firmware image file.

I upload it with the Wi-fi, because if I connect the computer with the router via ehternet it does no give any signal to the computer.

And yes, I use the D-link to provide wireless connection to the office. The Dell router provides connection to the switch.

Is this router from a ISP or a retail store? Looks like its from a ISP service...D-Link doesn't have any FW versions for Rev D with v1.01VF.
If this is from a ISP, you'll need to contact those who gave you this router. Some ISPs use D-Link products and develop there own FW for these routers.
