Re: Bypassing router

Yea this is a bit less consumer Netgear router...at least it looks respectable appearance wise.

Now last night I did direct to modem uploads with both computers, the IBM T60 and the Macbook and both went through fine, I did a test with the router and it failed.

Tonight if I get home in time I will install the new router and run the same tests.

It's really starting to looking like a defective router, I guess what threw me is everything works fine except for FTP uploads and they worked for a year through the router.

I will let you know how things go with the new router.....to be honest I never knew these things can fail like this.

QUOTE=whytheheckme;653840]I'm really liking the new router idea....

If there aren't firmware updates available, then this would definitely be my route.

I have a total of 18 routers and switches operating in my data-center right now. None of them are D-Links. I have replaced every D-Link product I own (typically with Cisco or *shiver* Linksys (which isn't so bad, now that it's part of Cisco), or Dell Switches (they have really really nice managed switches), or believe it or not, Intel switches seem to do fine) because I have never had anything but problems with D-Link firmware. My first wireless router was 9 years ago, and it was a D-Link (713P maybe?), and that crapped out after a few years. As recently as a year ago I purchased a D-Link (with the hopes that maybe they had improved their software design), with no avail... only a few months after purchasing it did the software become sound bound up that simply accessing the web portal for the router became a 45 minute process.

In short, ditch the D-Link. Personally, I'm not the hugest fan of Netgear (seems way too consumer oriented for me), but it should be better than what you have. If you have no problems uploading directly through the modem, then I highly doubt that your service is the problem.

My 2 cents,
Jacob

P.S., looking forward to hearing how your new router works. Let us know![/quote]
