defaultPlayer,

Thanks got it.. i noticed in the pcap there's allot of traffic going to and from 192.168.0.8 but when i loaded your config and checked your dhcp list, 192.168.0.8 is not in your dhcp list. is that a static IP? what machine is 192.168.0.8? also can you send me a log again.. I replaced your original zip with the new one  you sent. I believe your original had the logs in it correct?

192.168.0.8 was the client PC used to run Wireshark so that's why there's a lot of traffic to and from it. It gets its address from the DCHP server and does not have a DCHP reservation because there are already 24 reservations. I've never used a packet capture application before so forgive my lack of experience if I made a mistake. I'll also re-upload the SysLog from the last router slow down.

Got it. Thanks!

Wow so torrents cause the router to lockup? Wow. I have FIOS internet and replaced their Actiontech router for the DGL-4500 because of the small nat table on the Actiontech. The actiontech router would freeze when the nat table floads. Now you guys are telling me that the DGL-4500 is the same.. This really stinks.

I run my DGL4500 behind my Actiontec. I've uploaded and downloaded 600GB(.6TB) of Torrent data constantly over a short period with multiple machines with my 50/20 FIOS connection and not had any slowdowns or need to reboot. ALthough I am on 1.15. But still the Torrents and P2P don't cause me any problems with my DGL4500 behind my Actiontec. It runs just as fast after several months of uptime for both routers as it does when it's first booted. Which is extremely fast with my 50mbs/20 mbs connection.

Well I posted earlier that my DGL-4500 with the 1.20 was all of a sudden crashing like CRAZY today. The internet would work for a few minutes then freeze. I tried everything possible to track down why it was doing it. I have Fios 20/5 internet with the DGL-4500 as the sole router. I have two computers hardwired to it along with a color laster pinter. I also have three wireless devices attached to the router. I didn't really experience any issues since loading the 1.20 firmware last week until late last night.

After doing everything possible, I found the cause of the problem (which was the strangest freaking thing). Apparently, a Virtual Machine of Windows Server 2003 on VMWARE would cause the router to crash. It even caused the verzion actiontec router to crash. I had this VM running about two weeks with no issues. We use it to stream audio and my partners have access to it via logmein. Apparently, something happened to the VM late last night that was causing my router to crash. Once I restored a snapshot of the VM from a few days ago, the problem was fixed and everything is fine again. I really don't get what happened.

Uploaded config again. Sorry about the password. I will also try to get some time together and setup a capture for my network.

[RobNyc]

Now I want to restore the router to a previous firmware so I can sell it =\

[Puffnstuff]

Ru-Fi-Oh I'm using 1.20 firmware and built the config from scratch then saved it.

Sorry, but you're sol, no firmware downgrade possible once you go to 1.20

[kenshinhimura]

For those of you that uploaded your configs and docs:

deafultPlayer & phat78boy:Config loaded successfully however there is a password, please temporarily clear the password, save config then add password back

kenshinhimura: Attempted to load your config, but the unit locks up and freezes. What firmware version are you running and what hardware version? config maybe corrupt. restore unit to factory defaults and Try to re-flash firmware 1.20 again and Build a config from scratch then save config.

Puffnstuff: your config somewhat loaded but gave me a message saying RESTORE OUT OF VALID RANGE what firmware is your unit? Please try to reflash firmware 1.20 again.

**Users listed above please upload configs again after following suggestions

MPDamon: you're the only one that loaded successfully and had no password, we will look into your settings.

And again if anyone can also upload packet captures, or if you want to go an extra mile try a video of  your router starting to slow or lockup. The more info I can get from you guys the better leverage we have to push to get this fixed.

**Remember to backup config from a wired connection**

Public FTP:
ftp://dlink.serveftp.net

User: public
Pass: public

Thank you all!

Ru-fi-oh,
Just restored to default settings and reflash back 1.20
Will monitor the situation before uploading the log.
Hardware version A1

[Puffnstuff]

Ru-fi-oh I reflashed the 1.20fw and guess what?  It reloaded my config file just fine with no issues.  Anyway I resaved the file and uploaded it again for you.

[arod]

Thanks all for loading your configs and docs.. I wanted to point out some of you may have had DynDNS accounts set in the config so when i loaded it, most likely it wasn't pinned to your public IP anymore. So I went ahead and disabled it. You might have to reboot your unit to have your DynDNS active to your IP. Sorry for any inconvenience.

For those that haven't uploaded anything and are planning to, please remove you dyndns entry before saving config

I plan on getting mine up this weekend just have not gotten a chance to.

And yes I've been having to power cycle the router ever other night.

[hikari]

Ok i lied i found some free time remotely to get it done.

I have uploaded 1 file hikari.zip into the upload folder on the ftp that contains gatewaylog.txt, gateway_settings.gws and a rtf file containing basic home network information.

Please let me know if you need anything further.

Ru-Fi-Oh
