if it's under warranty, you need to contact them first and obtain a Return Materials Authorization (RMA) number. Typically they will give you all shipping info at that time or by email.

IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE IF YOU ARE HOOKING UP FROM DSL OR CABLE
IF DSL MAKE SURE ARE YOUR PHONES HAVE FILTERS
IF CABLE MAKE SURE THAT IS CONNECTED RIGHT

UNPLUG EVERYTHING
INSERT CABLE OR DSL INTO INTERNET SLOT ON ROUTER
THEN PLUG THE ROUTER IN LET ALL THE LIGHTS COME ON
THEN TURN YOUR COMPUTER ON AND SEE IF IT REQ THE CONNECTION IF THE LIGHTS ARE ON THE ROUTER MOST LIKELY COMPTER IS NOT CONNECTING TRY CONNECTING WITH ETHERNET CABLE

To bypass the Optus login page type in the address bar 10.1.1.1/CA_HiddenPage.htm
It will ask to disable the Optus login, accept, then close the page, open a new page and type in the address bar 10.1.1.1
And you will be at the router login

You've omitted some information about your hardware & configuration & connections.

You should have:

1. cable-modem connected to cable socket (or DSL-modem connected to telephone wall-jack);
2. router connected via Ethernet cable to the cable-modem (or DSL-modem)
3. desktop computer connected via Ethernet cable to the desktop computer
4. wireless device (iPod or netbook or notebook) connected over the "ether" to the router -- this connection will stay "up" almost "forever" (as long as there is AC-power to the router and power to the wireless device).

Which parts & connections do you have?

the problem would be your antenna, thats the only way it sends the wireless signal. you shoudl be able to get a cheap replacement. try the following stores:

www.tigerdirect.com
www.radioshack.com

Ethernet and DSL lights are indicating you have ADSL available on your line, and that you have computers connected to the router.

What has probably happened is that Optus did not set up the new router with your username and password. Go to thw following website for details on how to setup the modem.

Manual Modem Settings The Optus DSL Broadband self-installation CD configures all the necessary settings for your DSL Broadband service. You do not need to manually configure your modem if you have run the self-installation CD. While the following information is provided for your reference, using the self-installation CD is the recommended method for configuring your modem.
The Siemens SpeedStream 4200 ADSL modem can use either USB or Ethernet to connect to your computer.

• If you are connecting via USB you will need to run the self-installation CD to install the USB driver before you connect your modem. The Siemens SpeedStream 4200 ADSL modem supplied by Optus has been customised for the Optus DSL Broadband service. Only the USB driver supplied on the self-installation CD will work with the Optus service. If you do not have the self-installation CD, you can download the latest drivers from the Siemens website.
• If you are connecting via Ethernet it is possible to manually configure your modem without the self-installation CD. Only a web browser is required.

After connecting your modem there are two key steps to manually configure your modem for the Optus DSL Broadband service:

• PC settings - Configure your computer's Ethernet network interface.
• Configure Your Modem - Set the password in your modem's configuration pages.

Configure Your Modem To configure your modem settings you must now access the configuration manager using your web browser. This is done by entering the IP address in the address bar of the browser window as follows:
Note: If you are updating the password in your modem, please complete steps 1 to 3 only.
Step 1 of 5

• Enter http://10.1.1.1 (Default IP address of the Optus Supplied Siemens SpeedStream 4200) to access the modem Configuration software. You may wish to add this page to your Favorites for easy access later.
• The following modem System Summary screen will appear.

Step 2 of 5

• Click on the word Setup in the green menu of options on the left side of the web page. An expanded set of options will be displayed.
• Click PPP in the list of options that appeared below the word Setup.
• The ISP Password page will appear:

• Replace the default username ([email protected]) with the username provided for you by Optus DSL Broadband.
• Replace the default password with the password provided by Optus DSL Broadband in the Password field.
• Note: You will find your Optus DSL Broadband username and password on the letter you received with your self-installation kit.
• Save these details by clicking the Save Settings button.

Step 3 of 5

• The next screen will ask you to disconnect and reconnect to the Optus DSL Broadband service.

• Click the link to return to the System Summary page.

• Click the Disconnect button to disconnect the modem from the Optus DSL Broadband service. The text on the button will change to Connect.

• Click Connect to reconnect the modem to the Optus DSL Broadband service.

Step 4 of 5

• Click on the word Setup in the green menu of options on the left side of the web page. An expanded set of options will be displayed.

• If Optus Bridge is not selected click the radio button next to Optus Bridge to select it.
• Click the Apply button.

Step 5 of 5

• Click the Reboot button to restart the modem using your saved settings.

• After about a minute the modem will return to an operational state and connect to the Optus DSL Broadband service.

Once the modem has rebooted and the ADSL connection has been successfully established the DSL LED indicator will light steady green.
Your modem is now connected to the Optus DSL Broadband service.

If you have DSL or cable internet, disconnect the ethernet cable going from the DSL or cable internet modem to the computer. Disconnect the end of that cable that plugs into the modem. Connect an ethernet cable from your cable or DSL modem to the router where it says something like "modem", "internet", or "in". If the router is a wired router, connect the ethernet cable that is still attached to the computer to any open ethernet port on the router.

If it is a DSL modem, it will not work with your cable internet.

Is the PC's connected to the D-Link able to browse the Internet? Sometimes the MAC Address will bind to certain IP's and must be cleared out when the Router is replaced. Please unplug the power to the router, X-Box and Cable or DSL modem. 1st plug in the power to the DSL/Cable modem until the "Ready" light comes on. 2nd plug in the power to the D-Link Router, wait 30 seconds then plug in the X-Box, power on and test. If a computer plugged into the D-Link will browse Internet then this is the solution to your problem.
