I just got a dir-655 revb, and it does not connect to the internet. I have DSL, and the old router works fine with PPPoE, when I configure my dir-655b router, it can not connect to the internet. I get the flowing error:

info   Mar 23 22:31:11    rp_pppoe =' read pppoe_conn_session error or first time dial

Ensure your DSL modem is in bridged/transparent mode?
Ensure the DSL modem is getting a good signal from the ISP?
Ensure the DSL lines are filtered correctly and in good condition?
Enter in the PPPoE information into the 655 router and ensure it's entered in correctly?
Ensure Always On is selected in the router?
Power cycle the DSL modem first, the the 655 router after the PPPoE information was been set up.

My old router is working fine. (and it being working fine for 6+years) When I plug this new one, I have this problems.
I powered down the DSL  and dir-655 revb many times and in different power up orders...

and when I bring back the old router, everything is OK.

Other thing I noticed is that to navigate the dir-655 revb web pages to make/change settings is to slow.....

Try swapping the LAN cable between the 655 router and the DSL modem?

Any chance you have a nieghbor or a friend that has DSL that you can test this router on?
If you do, and the problem still exists, then possible the router is bad.

Link>Welcome!

• What Hardware version is your router? Look at sticker under the router case.
• Link>What Firmware version is currently loaded? Found on the routers web page under status.
• What region are you located?

Did you power cycle the ISP modem and router before connecting the router to the modem?

Internet Service Provider and Modem Configurations

• What ISP Service do you have? Cable or DSL?
• What ISP Modem Mfr. and model # do you have?
• Is ISP Modem/Service using Dynamic or Static WAN IP addressing?
• What ISP Modem service link speeds UP and Down do you have? Link> Speed Testing Sites
• By-pass the main host router and check internet connection by connecting a wired LAN PC directly to the ISP modem to verify connection access and ISP speeds.
• Check cable between Modem and Router, swap out to be sure. Link> Cat6 is recommended.
• Check ISP MTU requirements, Cable is usually 1500, DSL is around 1492 down to 1472. Call the ISP and ask. Link>Checking MTU Values
• For DSL/PPPoE connections on the router, ensure that "Always ON" option is enabled.
• WAN Port Speed set to Auto or specific speed? Some newer ISP modems support 1000Mb so manually setting to Gb speeds can be supported by the router. Advanced/Advanced Networking/WAN Port Speed
