Frequently Asked Questions

￿Go to Status Device Info, and check the Physical Link Status and Protocol Status of the WAN Interface. If the Physical Link Status is DOWN, check the cable connectivity. If the Protocol Status is DOWN, then go to Interfaces WAN and connect the interface.

￿Go to Tools Ping Test, and ping to the ISP Gateway IP Address. If the ping succeeds then the WAN link connectivity is fine, otherwise contact the ISP to fix this issue.

￿In Tools Ping Test, ping to dlink.com or any other domain name. If the ping fails, then go to Misc DNS Proxy and ensure that the DNS Server IP Addresses are configured properly.

￿Now ping to a global IP Address (eg. 4.2.2.2) from your LAN PC. If this ping fails, then either NAT or Route configuration is not proper.

o Check NAT Configuration:- Ensure that NAT is enabled on the router’s WAN interface via NAT Interface Configuration. And either Many-To- One or Many-To-Many NAT has been configured through NAT NAT Configuration.

o Check Route Configuration:- Verify that a default static route has been configured via the WAN Interface with the correct Gateway IP Address via Routing Static page.

￿Now ping to a domain name (e.g. dlink.com) from your LAN PC. If this ping fails, check the DNS Configuration at your PC. The DNS Server can be set to the router’s IP Address. If your PC has been configured with a global DNS Server, then ensure that the DNS Server is reachable.

11.2 DHCP, DNS

Q6. What is the purpose of DHCP Server Auto Configuration?

Ans: This field allows you to specify whether or not the Router will automatically assign the DNS settings to the LAN computers. If Enable Auto Configuration is chosen, the DNS Proxy is enabled in the Router. The router acts as DNS server. It gets the DNS IP manually or from ISP. If Disable Auto Configuration is chosen by the administrator, the Domain Name and DNS Server Settings entered by the administrator will be assigned to the LAN computers.

Q7. I want to use the router’s DHCP Server for the LAN Systems. But I have some Servers (File Server, Web Server) in the LAN for which I want to assign specific IP Addresses. How can I do this?

Ans: Use DHCP Static Mapping feature to reserve specific IP Addresses to the Server Systems. Go to Misc DHCP Static Mapping, and configure the MAC address and IP Address mappings.
