Two pc connection by dlink switch
connect the router to the switch using any port-it does not matter which port you use. Connect each computer to any port on the switch-it matters not. The router will assign IP address to the computer as they are added.
DONE!!!
Good Luck

Hi,
Welcome to Fixya. D-Link Des-1008d is not a router. It's an 8 port switch. You won't be logging into that unit, It's a switch and has no login, it just works.
If you have questions please let me know. Thanks for using Fixya.
I have d-link des
You should use a router instead of a switch...however if you still want to use the switch, request your service provider to provide two ip addresses, instead of regularly just one...but you mostly like need to pay monthly the extra ip address...alternatively ask your service provider to upgrade your cable modem to cable modem with router capability, ...
I have a weird problem with my switch . It doesn't
Do your service provider limits number of ip address (10.10.10.10) you can have? if they provide only one, you would need to use a router to share one public ip address. Sometimes it records the network address of your network device (00:00:00:00), and won't give u another ip if the device changed. If you have two routers in your network, turn off the dhcp on the second router, and use LAN ports and do not use the WLAN on the second router. if you want to manage the second router, give it an static ip from the first router. Bad port? Bad cable? Modem => router => PC/IPOD/switch or modem => router => PC/IPOD/Switch/ 2nd Router without dhcp and no WLAN ) Good luck
My home network is such
Check the network settings of your pc in network and sharing, adapter settings , right click local area connection and press properties, click IPv4 and look at its properties. Ensure ip and DNS are bother set to auto.
press start, type cmd right click the grey chalk board press run as administrator. Type ipconfig /release then type ipconfig /renew
also try a different port/cable if it is a gigabit switch an orange light means it is running below the speed. I.e. 10/100 if it is working correctly the lights should be green.
