okay i juz bought a d-link router...i followed step by step on installing the router...and the computer tat i used to install the router works perfectly fine with the router (both wireless and cable). But when i tried to use other pc to connect to the router, it will attempt to connect and shows this message " Windows couldn't find a certificate to log you on" . What should I do to fix this problem ?? will installing the router's driver into every computer that im gonna use help ? isnt tat gonna be so mah fan..

I got this DIR-300 Router. I've never received "Windows couldn't find a certificate to log you on" this message... could u post the screenshot?

Also, you don't have to install driver in every computer....

Never seen this problem anyway. Perhaps there is something not right with that particular computer. Have you try with yet another PC? maybe borrow friend's or neighbor's notebook and try.

i got 3 other running on wireless in my house...all showing the same message...bah headache... =/

what version of windows are you using? which web browser are you using? have you tried using other browsers, e.g. Firefox?

If u connect other machine using wireless, wat security u set in ur router to use the wireless

all 3 using xp and i use both i.e. and firefox yet is still not working...but the problem is the message showed up when i was trying to connect to the router...=/ .. i use open WEP

I guess you mean you are connecting the wireless card to the DIR-300.

Looks like this could be some problem with Windows settings itself. Tried googling it but could not find any solution so far. Shall let you know if I found any solution.

yeah was googling for it for a while now...but seems like i couldnt find a solution yet but will post it if i do find any juz in case any1 face the same problem as me in the future...

If not mistaken it appear "Validating Identity" or "Windows couldn't find a certificate to log you on", rite?

Ok, it's not the DIR-300 Wireless Router problem. It's actually a setting in Windows Wireless Connection, that's needed to be disabled.

What u need to do is, open your Wireless network properties => click the wireless network tab => select your preferred wireless network, then click Properties => click on Authentication tab => make sure u uncheck Enable IEEE 802.1x authentication for this network.

It works for my customers. So I do hope it will work for all of u.

CHEERS!!!

Hi there, noob here. Recently i own a Dlink wireless ADSL2 + router (DSL-2640T) encounter constantly connection loss and sometimes need to restart pc 2 or 3 times (during online) then can be connected. I m using wired. This does not happen when i used my streamyx free modem (DB102 ADSL modem 2/2+). Izzit my Dlink failure or need some setting to do. Please advise. Thanks.

Hi, i am facing a problem wif DIR-300 router too... Whenever i online for few hours later, the ready LED (READY LED) will stop blinking and my internet connection all stop. Wat is the problem and how to solve it??? I only can re-online after i restart my router....

Download the latest beta firmware (currently 1.03) from DIR-300 product page and flash your DIR-300 with this firmware.

WARNING: Do NOT upgrade firmware using wireless connection. Please use a wired connection when performing upgrade

You may also consider put the router standing up using the bracket. This gives better air flow to reduce heat.

Juz update the firmware, hope this will really solve my problem... Thanks to bro jolmy~

After download the firmware 1.03, how to flash pls?
Is the procedure of flashing included in the download file of firmware 1.03?

The firmware is a .bin file. Use the web configuration of DIR-300 to flash it. It's in Maintenance > Firmware Update. Browse the file and click apply. The process takes about 2 to 3 minutes usually. Do not power off the DIR-300 during the process.

If that doesn't work, flash it to DD WRT instead After all, it's about the only reason why I would buy a DIR 300 nowadays...

Well, it works fine in my case. The 1.01 firmware supplied with the router is problematic, which leads to the 1.02 beta and now 1.03 beta.

Sometimes the hang happens because of overheating (perhaps). But not anymore since I place the router on standing position using the bracket.

For your case it's most probably a unit problem. Take it back to whoever that sold u.
