D-link won't connect to the internet

I just bought a d-link (615) with Virgin Media. The router came after the standard package and the internet cable has worked fine.
However, after plugging everything in the d-link wireless router has a orange light where the globe is. It has never been green so it seems it can't pick up the internet. I've tried resetting, unplugging everything and turning everything on and off a million times, no joy. I can connect my computer to the router via wireless but not the internet.

If your computer is online when connected only to the modem then the problem must be router settings .
you will need to check the settings manually.

You will need to reset the router to factory defaults before you can connect to Virgin Moble there should be a reset button on the back of the router press and hold for 30sec. and then reboot it

I have a modem supplied by virgin media can i

Well, Virgin Media provides Cable Internet connection and with those connections you can not use this ADSL modem. If you have internet services from Virgin.net then only you will be able to use this modem with them. This modem will not work with Virgin Media connection.


Hope this answers your query.

Just got a dir615 from virgin media. lan to pc not working

If the lan light does not light up, there is a problem with the connection between the pc and the router. Did you use the cable between your modem and your pc as the cable between your router and your pc? If so, it may be the wrong cable. With some modems the suppler sends a cross over cable. This will not work between your router and your pc. Get a straight through cable and try that.

If that does not work, we need more info to help you more.

1. What is the IP address set to on your PC. See the TCP/IP properties listed in your network connection properties in the control panel.

2. Does your PC work with the modem directly?

3. Does the cable you are using have a cross-over label on it?

4. Are you trying initially to connect to the router via a wireless connection? You should use a cable connection to set up the router, then try the wireless connection.

good luck, and if any of this solves your problem please leave feedback. Otherwise send more information.
