VISTA CANNOT CONNECT TO D-LINK DSL-320T


[link to this post]
 
My D-LINK DSL-320T Ethernet Modem Is Already Setup With Username & Password For My ISP Which Is Toucansurf. I Have Put XP Back On This Dell Dimension 4700 Because VISTA Absolutely Refused To Talk To The Modem Via The Browser. I Have Just Purchassed A Second PC In The Form Of A Dual Core Hewlett Packerd, And Once Again, Vista Absolutely Refuses To Talk To The D-Link modem.
I Don't Know If It Is A Modem Conflict Or A Problem With Toucans Particular Server. One Thing I Do Know, Is That After A Search, A Lot Of Other People Are Having The Same Problem.
I Don't Know If A New ISP, Or A Different Modem Would Be T he Answer. Can Anyone Help?
Thanks.

Yes, try D-Link's website first. They might have a driver or patch needed for VISTA. They also have a list of VISTA compatible hardware on it. It could be possible that your modem may not have the driver needed or is not VISTA compatible. You will not know until you check their website. Good luck.

Many Thanks For The Info. I Did Struggle A Bit Because I Visited The D-Link USA Site Instead Of The .co.uk Site. I Have Now Upgraded This Modem But Have Not Tried It On My Other PC Running Vista Yet. It Is A Good Job I Have XP Back On This One Or I Would Not Have Been Able To Access The Upgrade!.
However Once On The D-Link Site Via XP, I Found Alternative Instructions For Adressing The Modem And Upgrading. See Below From D-Link Site.
M<any Thanks.

Question:
My DSL-300T/DSL-320T is not working with Windows Vista. Is it broken?
Answer:
Due to certain changes in Microsoft Windows Vista, it has become necessary to take additional steps to use the DSL-300T or DSL-320T in some circumstances.
There are a number of ways to resolve these issues:
If you are using the DSL-320T and are still able to access the web configuration interface, you can upgrade the firmware to a newer version that adds Windows Vista support.
Please follow this link (DSL-320T_firmware_V3.02B01T01.EU.20070404_beta_vista.zip) to download the file.
If you are unable to access the configuration, or are using the DSL-300T, click on the Start menu and enter the command
route -p ADD 0.0.0.0 MASK 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1
into the search box.

Run the command by pressing the Ctrl and Shift keys at the same time as the Enter/Return key. You should see a dialog box pop up, asking you to confirm that you do want to run the command. Confirm that you do.
You should then be able to configure the modem and access the Internet.
