Download d link dgl 4100 quick router setup

Exact same settings work fine on the DGL-4100 and do not on the DIR-827. Thereby confirming the issue is with the 827 firmware implementation vs that of the 4100. Logged Live for today.... Finding yet another take away in the firmware of this new router. Apple Bonjour services are not getting thru. I have two wired network printers (Canon MF4370DN and HP C7280) that specifically use Apple Bonjour to do printing from Mac OS Lion. For more than just discovery btw. With the DIR-827 plugged in they do not show up on the network and even manually attempting to print to the printers static IP fails with the driver reporting the device unavailable. Swap back in the DGL-4100 and they immediately appear and the drivers go green and you can print fine. Common problem from a quick Google, all related to router interference with Bonjour protocol.Firewalls endpoint independent setting was enough to get Bonjour streaming going on the 4100. But these settings are not under Advanced/Firewall in the 827 firmware so I cannot replicate the working firmware settings. Multicast streams need to be enabled also but without the endpoint independent setting can't see how to get these kinds of printers going on the 827. Logged Live for today.... I know that the NAT has been removed from some of these newer routers, even the 857 doesn't have it. Not sure what they are doing with it now days. Wondering if maybe a DIR-825 would better suite you. What I'm currently

All devices accept for one wired PC while testing. Check cable between Modem and Router, swap out to be sure. Cat6 is recommended.Maybe someone can review your router settings with you using teamviewer if your interested. Its safe and secure.Since the 4100 was only router with out any wireless nor a faster CPU, these new gen routers run hotter and work well even running at these temps. I have the 857. Runs great. The have faster CPUs and more HW so just nature of the beast that these run hotter. Its ok. Also you could have checked out a DGL-4500, even though it's not made any more, it was the next gen router up from the 4100 and 4300 that had wireless G. Let see if we an help you get the 827 doing for you. Logged Cable: 1Gb/50Mb>NetGear CM1200>DIR-882>HP 24pt Gb Switch.

Wow got that text on a hot key Furry lol? The settings I went thru and I already had as suggested when I copied over the 4100 settings, I skipped over the wireless ones as they are N/A. Nothing here applied to my email settings problem.I read #12 as mentioned, it confirmed the firmware is gimped on purpose by D-Link (comment by Lycan). I tried but sadly don't see any difference from the "measured requirement" text by changing the WAN port from auto as suggested there. Attempts to manually change the uplink are rejected by the 1.02 firmware also. Would appear there is no

Author Topic: Problems upgrading to DIR-827 from DGL-4100 (Read 27075 times) I do not have any wireless devices, but I do have 13 wired ones on a Cat6 gigabit home network. My reliable DGL-4100 from 2007 finally started to die of old age with first one then another LAN port checking out. I found Gamefuel really worked (at least in my home) with 6 kids all on-line the same night on my 20/2 cable service. So when looking for a replacement the HD Fuel of the DIR-827 looked great vs an used 4100 off eBay. It was Ubicom based and gigabit port equipped. It came with the 1.01 firmware but I upgrade to the 1.02. I disabled both radios and set the firmware to match those settings I've had for five years on the DGL-4100 (it never ever rebooted, crashed or crapped out until the electronics started to die of old age). If it was something that wasn't available on the 4100 firmware, I disabled it on the 827 (e.g., media server). Basically I just wanted a newly manufactured wired gigabit router that was Ubicom stream engine based. I ran into a few problems though.I cannot get the email settings for sending logs to work on the 827 despite using the EXACT entries from the 4100. Something has changed in the 827 firmware implementation that Time Warner Cable does not like. While the 827 reports the email has been sent I never receive it. Again, this screen looks the same

As the 4100 and I have the settings exactly the same. Works on the 4100 does not on the 827. Anyone who actually has this working on an 827 have suggestions?Gamefuel/HD Fuel QoS is a must have feature for me. And I was irritated and blown away to learn the 2 mbps uplink of my cable service exceeded the requirements for HD Fuel (there was nothing on the box about this limitation). I tried to set the uplink manually but the firmware complained and refused to accept it either. At first I just ignored this but the kids quickly complained about Warcraft lag that disappeared if I swapped the 4100 back in. Since then I saw the earlier thread on this QoS issue. If someone has heard anything new on the firmware development front it would be good to know this line is not an engineering dead end with the HD Fuel not working with DOCSIS 3 cable modem speeds and Ubicom assimilated into Atheros. If something is really coming I'll hold onto this guy and wait for it.Lastly this new router gets much hotter to the touch. I was especially surprised in my configuration as both radios are turned off. Is the 827 normal to be so hot? Certainly the unit is under load with so many devices/traffic but the DGL-4100 carried the same weight and never got this hot. The unit resides between two DGS-2208s as did the DGL-4100 before it. Logged Live for today.... Welcome!What Hardware version

TX packets into the WAN statistics when it comes back on-line. Again, from this thread I do not use wireless so we're talking wired WAN only here not WLAN. And yes for the typical noob advice people post I have tried several patch cables between the modem and router. Only happens on reboot, number varies from 6-11 WAN TX packets dropped just on re-startup. Never see anything but zeros on LAN statistics for packet issues as it should be. But WAN stats should also be zeroes, particularly right after a reboot when nothing is going on yet.I'm going to stick it out a bit longer and see if D-Link comes thru with an Amplifi line firmware update this Summer. The DIR-825 you suggest is also Ubicom based, IP5170U, but I would not consider another Dlink product if I found my DIR-827 purchase turned out to be for an firmware orphan. There is a competitor offering out there with the Ubicom IP8260U and no QoS crippling I would turn to. Logged Live for today.... Logged Cable: 1Gb/50Mb>NetGear CM1200>DIR-882>HP 24pt Gb Switch.

No work arounds, will take a firmware update to address all of these issues. I did have the opportunity to borrow someones DGL-4300 1.9 and it behaved the same as my DGL-4100 1.7 with respect to these issues. That's two different Dlink routers that did not exhibit the problems that the DIR-827 does. TWC SMTP email settings worked/sent logs on both DGLs QoS/GameFuel measured/reported speed at the
