I feel everyone's pain here.

I am using a DIR-628 with the latest firmware (1.22) and Shareport (1.10) software.

Of course, the printer is useable for about a day, then ALL networked computer "see" the printer (Brother HL-2140 laser) but attempting to connect to it, just tries, then returns to "available" status.  FRUSTRATING.

Resetting the router is a pain in the u-know-what, and not always an option. 

I have teens in the house, monitored by SecureSpot for their internet time and habits.  Resetting the DIR-628 results in resetting their allotted time for the internet also.  Unacceptable!  Plus the password on the router is not shared hence a reboot is only available through myself and I am not always available when the kids need to print.

I have tried everything and am getting frustrated.  Looking at the other angry messages here, I do not see any solution. 

I am tempted to sell my DIR-628 (reluctantly, but I have no choice) and get something else.  Preferably with a "network addressable" USB port.  Wouldn't THAT be nice?

Could SOMEONE please sort this out soon.

I too had the same issue w/DIR628 (122NA) and Shareport (110) however it's now been 72 hrs without a disconnect.  I made one change to the Shareport Option setting, I checked "launch Shareport utility at Windows startup" never exit the program I just keep it minimized.  This works fine on the main PC, I have 2 other Notebooks where I will soon make the same test but because these are portables I'm obliged to shut down so I'm not sure how this will workout.

I only disconnect from the device when I finish the application which is mostly printing (Brother HL2140 Laser and HP 4100 Multifunction) without exiting the main Shareport Utility program.

I would normally reboot the DIR628 which is a problem for others, I hope this works for all of us who are  having the same connection problem.

Good Luck!

DIR-655 1.32NA firmware, 1 Desktop (wired), 2 laptops (wireless), Canon S900 printer. ALL computers: Printer will print ONE page and then about 1/10 of all following pages unless I cancel the print job & print one page at a time. I also have the limited connect time. Usually have to power down then power up router to get the printer to connect. About the same problems everybody is having. Have disconnected printer from router  until solution is found. DLINK have been working on this problem since JUNE & no fix yet? (going on 4 months now)....

Thanks for your time....
