That won't work, I need the router to resolve my IP. It's DHCP.

I have no idea about any of this.

But please check your pm's

My external IP is assigned by DHCP.

I've tried removing the router, and it just wouldn't work without it. Plus, the guy who set it up said "This connection won't work without a router set to DHCP resolve." - so I'm gonna' just trust his judgement. ;/

You are going to have to go to your network properties under TCP/IP properties and change it to "Obtain an IP address automatically"

That's already set.

What type of connection are you on ?

DSL.

I have DSL and used to own the D-Link DI-604, and I had all sorts of issues. Mostly, connection issues and connecting to servers. Before I ditched it for a Linksys, I set the connection to PPPoE in the router setup -power cycled both router and DSL modem, then turned on the modem first, after the lights were green, I plugged in the router then rebooted.

This seemed to give me some relief and worked for a while. IMHO that model D-Link isn't compatible with my DSL modem.

I have SBC DSL with a SpeedStream 5100 modem.

Hope this helps.
