Question about D-Link router and DHCP requests

flynnk31 · #1 January 31st, 2008, 04:19 AM

I have a new D-Link router and the internet works just fine EXCEPT every 28-30 minutes while using the internet it will cut out and come right back. I checked the log in the router's admin settings and I saw that one or more of the machines on the network are requesting a new DHCP and I think that may be the problem but I don't know what to do to fix it? Can anyone help please? Thank you in advance!!

You can start by increasing the DHCP lease window, I believe the max on the dlink is a week.

What model dlink do you have? I've seen dlink wireless routers cutout now and then because they are resetting themselves. This seems to be related to wireless connection issues. If that is the case then you can't do a whole lot, except tweak it some to minimize interference.
