Hi Do,
I think you have to connect the LAN port of the Linksys to the LAN port of
the Dlink using a crossover cable. You can not go it to the WAN port on the
Dlink. There was some info on the Dlink web site about this but I can't find
the link. By the way I have a Dlink DI-714P+ router and posted the following
questions a few days ago, maybe you can help answer the first two.
Origional post follows:
Just hooked up this router and have 4 computers wired to the LAN ports and 1
wireless. The wireless one is using a DWL-520+ card. All computers are
working, however I have a few questions:
1) The WLAN light never lights, manual says should be lit, wireless network
does work.
2) The WAN port has two lights, on for WAN which is lit, the other for
10/100 which is not lit.
3) It does not seem like there is a way to disable WLAN portion of the
router like on the 614+, Anyone know of a way?
4) From dlink web site it does not look like they will update firmware to
enable 4X mode.
5) The link light on the 520+ card never lights.
If someone has this router can you confirm these issues. I have spoke with
dlink and was told if everything is working don't worry. I want to know if
all 714P+ routers behave the same, if not I will return it for another.
Thanks
