Help please TP Link TD-W8960N

Hi I'm trying to get my W8960N to work on the quality monitor but all I'm seeing is red lines. I understand my router may not be responding to ping's, the thing is I have no idea how to achieve this.

I have recently purchased the same router; it's supposed to work with DMT Tool v8 but I've only got partial functionality with it.

its related to the SPI firewall but TP link routers disabling the SPI in the past makes the router respond on most ports as closed so not an good idea below mite help

or
page 39 (or in the reader its 44 page) you can make an incoming or out going rule to allow ICMP

Did anyone solve this?

I'm having issues with my plus.net connection and the BQM would really help me out. I have created a new rule in the Security incoming page but not sure what to put in any of the boxes so left them all blank and set the traffic type to 'ICMP'

Do I need to fill in any of these values?

Source IP address:
Source Subnet Mask:
Source Port (port or port:port):
Destination IP address:
Destination Subnet Mask:
Destination Port (port or port:port):

If so, can anyone shed any light on what they should be for the BQM?

Thanks,

Rob

That looks more like a port forwarding rule, which is not what you need.

You simply need to set the router to respond to pings/icmp requests.

I have the same router. It is the security incoming page that you need. I use the following settings which work for me:

Filter Name : ThinkBroadBandBQM
Interfaces : pppoa0,br0
Protocol : ICMP
Source Address / Mask : 80.249.99.164 / 255.255.255.128
Source Port :
Dest. Address / Mask :
Dest. Port :

Thanks!

Try a Netgear DG834GT router instead as its easy to set up

I have the same router. Just log into router then go to Management--Access Control -- Remote Access and tick the ICMP(ping) box and save/apply. Works for me.

Hi,

Unfortunately it has been a while since I did this and I can't exactly remember what I did. I think I got lucky!

But the first thing I had to do was set up one of the ports as a Virtual LAN Port (I think!). See LAN Ports and then enable one of them for an ethernet port.


I will send my config file to Keith so he can post on his site. I hope this willl help.
