| reply to Wcool Re: [Help Me] DI-LB604 MSN contacts problem/WAN binding problem
I'm testing out a new firmware now...so far it is working great. Completely changed my tune regarding performance of the DI-LB604. Also noticed the port/protocol binding area under "Misc.", I did not know that existed up until yesterday (not sure if this feature was in the original firmware). At any rate, the beta of 1.02 looks promising for the DI-LB604, as long as it can stay crash-free for the next few weeks, I will be returning the Netgear FVS124G. |

| Well the new firmware didn't solve my problem 
It was meant to solve the HTTPS problem, so I am not surprised. I tried binding as well as static routing but it didn't work.
D-Link told me that the router is "not designed" for what I want to do 
I managed to solve my problems by using a 2nd router and I have a rule that directs all 10.X.X.X traffic to that gateway.
So basically I bought an expensive Dual Wan router that I use as a normal router and had to buy a 2nd router. Waste of money. Ah well, can't win them all. |

| Hello Wcool, Just what exactly is your scenario ? As I told you in the mail I've succeeded in reproducing your problem and it's been working ok with the latest firmware. Is there anything I've overlooked ? would you mind mailing me your deteails ? I don't know which DLink branch tech support you've contacted but I do know the only thing DLink America tech support do is to put your call on hold because they don't have a least idea about networking especially for dual wan devices, that's why I am here to help ! |

| reply to Wcool By the way, did you notice that the static routing rule on the latest firmware has the options to set the routing mode to meet your need (NAT mode to change the source IP address, Transparent mode to do just pure routing withour replacing IP) have you tried that too ? |

| Thanks for the offer.
Well, NAT or Transport didn't make any difference. I guess Transport mode is what we want here
Basically, I want to direct any 10.X.X.X ip packet to WAN2 interface. Still didn't work. If I set up the routing, NO packet in the 10.x range can be sent.
I sent you some more details. |

| If you're having any issues with the DI-LB604, I highly recommend contacting D-Link and giving the new firmware a shot (it's a beta version of 1.02). All problems that I experienced with 1.01 have disappeared in this firmware revision. HTTPS, UPnP, daylight savings time, and performance are very reliable under this 1.02 (beta). I have ~2 weeks of solid uptime which I had *never* experienced with this router prior to the 1.02 firmware revision.
It's good to see the problems being fixed, and boosts my confidence with this product. Hopefully 1.02 final won't introduce new problems, but if it does, I'll hold onto the beta version so that I can roll back, if necessary.  |

join:2002-04-28 Arcadia, CA | reply to BustANut I couldn't agree more. v1.02 is rock stable. I'm impressed with LB604. Does anyone know what is the hardware spec and VPN performance on LB604? |
