Hi I have a DIR 615 c1 w/ver 3.13 I use it for mostly gaming and I have a 25mbs download and 10mbs upload...............here is the problem i cannot get the router to go over about 3.8 mbs upload I have tried dmz,upnp,opening ports etc.............I found when I manually change the upload speed it got to 3.8 before it was only at 1mbs upload......is there a way to increase the upload speed and when I connect directly to the modem the upload speed is 10mbs

What ISP Service do you have? Cable or DSL?
What ISP Modem do you have? Stand Alone or built in router?
What ISP Modem make and model do you have?
If this modem has a built in router, it's best to bridge the modem. Having 2 routers on the same line can cause connection problems.

Some things to try:
Ensure DNS IP addresses are being filled in under Setup/Internet/Manual? You can find these under Status/Device Info/Wan section.
Turn off ALL QoS (DIR only) GameFuel (DGL only and if ON.) options. Advanced/QoS or Gamefuel.
Turn off Advanced DNS Services if you have this option under Setup/Internet/Manual.
Turn on DNS Relay under Setup/Networking.
Setup DHCP reserved IP addresses for all devices on the router. Setup/Networking
Ensure devices are set to auto obtain an IP address.
Set Firewall settings to Endpoint Independent for TCP and UDP.


What kind of gaming do you do? PC or Console?
You might be better served by getting a DGL-4500 or a DIR-825 router.

Some things to try:
Ensure DNS IP addresses are being filled in under Setup/Internet/Manual? You can find these under Status/Device Info/Wan section..................THEY ARE
Turn off ALL QoS (DIR only) GameFuel (DGL only and if ON.) options. Advanced/QoS or Gamefuel............TURNED THEM OFF TURNED EM ON NO DIFFERENCE
Turn off Advanced DNS Services if you have this option under Setup/Internet/Manual..............ITS OFF
Turn on DNS Relay under Setup/Networking.......................ITS ALREADY ON
Setup DHCP reserved IP addresses for all devices on the router. Setup/Networking................DONE THAT
Ensure devices are set to auto obtain an IP address............THEY ARE EXCEPT THE XBOX HELPED SPEED A LITTLE BIT BY PUTTING IT INTO THE DMZ
Set Firewall settings to Endpoint Independent for TCP and UDP.

You might be better served by getting a DGL-4500 or a DIR-825 router...........................this is my 4th router tried a linksys xbox would not even connect.......2 belkins one gave a strict nat no matter what i did the other constantly disconnected this is my first dlink and i have no problems with it other than the upload speed when I am plugged into the modem the speed is what the cable company says its supposed to be and this was the same at my previous address with a different modem so I know its not the modem its the router and like I said in the QOS I enabled it and changed the upload link to 10000kbs and it made it go up to 3.8mbs a second is this all this router is capable of??? how many routers do I have to buy to find one that does not bottleneck

O and the firewall is set on that already I tried everything to give my computer the least amount of restrictions as possible thought it might be my computer but my tablet and my phone have the same upload speed..............By the way thanks for replying I was going thru the forums earlier and noticed alot of people just forget to say thank you............but i still need help lol

Your Thanks is appreciated.

I must say I've had a few experiences with this router and have tried to help people set this one up for gaming however since this is a fairly low budget router, the QoS options don't allow any customization of the QoS options to set up XBL to get the NAT status to change from strict to Open. This router is pretty much a plug in play router thats really designed for just surfing the web, emails and general internet usage. I've had a hard time trying to get gaming configured well on this due to the fact that there just isn't alot of options to set up.

I suppose we could go review your router settings with you via teamviewer. however I feel we'll just hit a dead end. It would be worth a go if you want though.

I really would recommend getting into a DGL-4500, DIR-825 or a 655, even a newer DIR-657. I have lots of experiences with this as I own all of these accept for the 655 which I'm trying to acquire one now for testing purposes. The 4500 and the others are very solid routers and have the gaming options you really need and we can help you set up and get your XBL NAT to open up. There is a sticky in those fourms regarding set up of the QoS for XBL. It works great and we use it all the time.

I think you'd be very happy with one of them. Let me know if I can help you look for one. If you decide to go that router, we can help you set it up.
