Cannot get D Link DIR 615 to work with Windows 7
I've tried this before and failed. What I have
Windows 7 64 bit
D Link DIR 615 router
Internet connection is incoming ethernet from wireless antenna, static IP
I can get the router to see the internet that gets plugged into it's internet port.
I can on my laptop see and connect to the wireless connection
On the windows 7 machine, which is connected with an cable, between the LAN 1 port and my Ethernet card.
But I cannot get any internet connection.
It is hard to diagnose as every time I have to revert back to the incoming ethernet the static IP it has to be manually entered. Then switch the ethernet cable with the incoming internet ethernet cable.
Maybe a different router?
What I want is a hard wire from my Win 7 machine to a wireless router that has the internet connected to it's Internet port.
Then my wireless devices can work through the router.
