Sometimes routers can die periodically. You can perform a 'reset' on the router to put it back to factory settings, but you will lose everything you have configured.To reset, press(and hold) the reset button on the back of the router (its small). Continue to hold it for 30 secondsUnplug the power (while still holding the reset button).Wait 30 seconds, then plug it in again.(Don't let go of the reset button just yet)Wait 30 seconds after plugging it in, then let go. Go make a coffee or do something for 5 minutes while the router does its thing. If all goes well you'll be back at square one.

there's an easy way to reset your router back to its factory setting... inspect the physical appearance of your router... there should be s small hole.... inside that small hole is a reset button

How to reset? ..... while the router is on...Using a small pointing object, much better if you use a paper clip..... insert the paper clip to the hole... press and hold the reset button for 10 seconds...

That's it your router will restart itself and the settings is back to its factory settings...


Hope that help you..
Much appreciated if you rate this help... thanks

Welcome to FixYa! In regards to your problem there are possible options you could follow. 1. Check first if your computer is detecting the router. Go to your Network Connections and see if its detecting a connection with the D-Link router that you have. 2. I suggest go to this site that has a manual for setting up a D-Link DIR-300 Wireless Router.Check if you missed any of the process. Steps: Go to Google.com then type "cant get a internet Problem with the D-Link DIR-300 Wireless Router" and then look for DIR 300 Wireless Router Manual. There you will find all that you need in setting up your router. Hope this helps! Thank you for using FixYa!

Hello,

1. Restart the router by plugging it off and back on
Try to connect again

If that does not work,
go to the router's configuration page
Make sure you have DHCP enabled to assign ip addresses

Also on the devices, check to have Wi-fi turned on, and iP address to be configured automatically.

Please check and provide feedback

Regards,

Hi, Your question is not so clear. For giving the proper solution I need to know something. As per my knowledge a fiber optic cable doesn't connect a router directly without a Media Converter. Secondly please tell me the model number and the brand name of your television. Third do you configure your internet connection on your television through IP address??

Open your web browser and type in the IP address of the router (192.168.0.1 by default)The default user id is: admin and the password is left blank. Once you get into the router go to the wireless setup or tab.Below is a pdf manual of your router.ftp://files.dlink.com.au/products/DIR-300/QuickInstallGuide/DIR-300_A1_QIG_v2.00.pdf

Check with your internet provider.

Try to reset the device using reset button, and try to reconfigure the router.

while router is powered on and booted, press the reset button on the back of the router for 10-15 seconds. in the meantime router will reboot. Give it about a minute to boot and then access it on 192.168.0.1 with username Admin and with no password. Then you can quickly configure it again and this time document the pwd at a safe place :)

You may have to reset the router first there will be a button on the back get a paper clip and push it in for 5 seconds.

To open the set up page of the router of the router , one of your computer should be able to go online through the router.
It could be a wired computer or wireless computer.
If it is a wireless computer then make sure that the computer is connected to your own wireless network.
Do not change any wireless settings on the router using a wireless computer.
OK ! Now you have a computer online through the router and you want to open the set up page of the router.

First step is check the IP address of the computer.
Check the IP address and the Default gateway on the computer.

For Windows XP

START ==> RUN ==> type in cmd in the RUN box==> click OK or Hit ENTER . You will see a black window that is a command prompt . In the black window type in " ipconfig " ==> and Hit ENTER on your key board .

For Windows Vista and Windows 7

click on START ==> type in cmd in the start search box ==> enter ==> you will see the black window. Type in " ipconfig "you will see a lot of information. Try to find out the local area connection IPv4 address .

Note down the Default gateway number.

For MAC OS

Click APPLE icon in the right top corner of the computer. Go to System Preferences ==> go to Network ==> you will find the option Built in Ethernet or Airport whichever is connected. If you go to that you will find the Ip address and router Address.

The default gateway is the IP address of your router.

This IP address of the router will be used to open the set up page of the router

Now you got the IP address of the router.Open the Internet Browser ( Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari )

In the Address bar of the browser Type the IP address of the router.

Do not type http:// or www just type in the IP address only.

It will ask you for the user name and the password of the router.

This is the User name and the password of the router and NOT the wireless password. On a wireless router, there are 2 passwords. One is to access the router and the other one is for the wireless network.

For most of the routers the default password will be " admin " . for some routers the default password is " password ". For Linksys router the default password is admin and no user name.

Use the parental controls on that pc.Found in control panel.

You need to access the Setup page of Dlink DIR 300 wireless router:
1. Use a working computer that is hard wired to the router.
2. Open a Web Browser (IE, Firefox etc.) on the computer.
3. In the address bar of the browser type http://192.168.0.1 and press Enter.
4. When the login window appears, set the user name to admin and leave the password box empty. Click OK to continue.
(Note: If you setup your own Usename and Password on your router please use those info to login instead of using the default)
You will then see the Setup page of the router.
5. CLick on the ADVANCED tab.
6. On the left side of the screen Click on Parental Control.
7. On the "Configure Parental Control below: " select the option "Turn Parental Control ON and DENY computers access to ONLY these sites".
8. ON the "Website URL" tyoe in the website that you want to block
9. Click on the Save settings button.

Once completed then the sites you entered are completely denied and blocked on your router.
