@shawcable.net | I was poking about and saw this, installed it and wham, no more internet. Just "Establishing (please wait...)" nice. Just like 1.05; broken. |

| Thanks Mr. Gate...
But next time try to keep the bandwidth down a little. 
OK - I am going to give it a shot but every time in the past that I have used the save and restore thingy I ended up having to tell the router to restore factory defaults.  |

Doesn't work with Shaw's surfboard modem (cannot obtain ip address through DHCP).
Back down to version 1.04 |

Was back online in less than 5 minutes Add in a power cycle for all connected devices and it was the same here. Still not sure what the difference is, but it's got to be better, it's newer right?  |

So how long does it take for the router to actually detect a new firmware version? I NEVER saw it do so or notify me about an update since I first had the router. |

gate1975mlm,
Thanks - the update was a piece of cake, now if I could just figure out what it has done to make my life better I'd be all set. |

I've discovered that for me at least, if I have unusual characters in my wireless pre-shared key, my saved settings won't restore. If I keep the PSK alphanumeric, then I'm able to save and restore my router settings normally. |

Just purchased a DIR-655 that was A1/hardware version and 1.02/firmware version. Took the leap to 1.10 today because I am seeing poor performance from the DIR-655 & the associated Xtreme-N PCMCIA card.
Upgrade was a snap as long as you backup your previous settings. Only issue I have now is one of my laptops no longer access the internet via cat5 cable or wireless. Oh well, the second cup of coffee this AM should help.
Anyone now how to manually choose a channel? I have a bunch of neighbors that are on channel 6...and want to move at my convenience.
Also....the DIR-655 runs HOT! |
