I'm trying to connect a D-link DIR-615 router to my inlaws computer. They have an old motorola external modem which works fine, the new router is connected properly to the power suppy, ethernet cable from computer to router and from modem to router are both connected properly. There are 3 green lights indicating that the power is on, wireless output and the ethernet cable is in dock 1. but there is an orange light for the internet symbol. This is where the problem lies, telling me that there is no internet connection. There is obviously an internet connection to the modem because this is what i'm using to write this. Please help. Thank you, Chris.

You haven't mentioned who is your Internet Service Provider (generally motorola modems are used by cable connections). After connecting the cables properly, you power cycle the modem and the router if this is a cable connection. However, if this is a DSL connection you better contact the ISP and fetch further information. Please contact me again if you need further information.

My D-link router (dir 615) saying is connected but have no internet access

Wired or wireless? Check all cables, have you tried to connect with a Ethernet cable to the ISP modem, if it connects, try connecting via the cable to the D-link. Work you way through the devices one by one.If it connects via the cable, it's the computer's wireless adapter. Will other computers connect? Or contact your ISP to verify the signal, have a tech come out to analyze the signal. It may be outside. It's happened before, to me.

My old d-link router works fine. I bought a new DIR-615 but it won't connect. My computer won't "see" it. I followed all directions several times.

Make sure that the broadcast SSID in your router is enabled. Try setting it up again and make sure all necessary settings are set, or it might be the settings in your computer itself, let me know what type of computer you are currently using so i can check.

Problem for D-Link DIR-615 Wireless Router, Orange Power Light

I have had multiple problems with these routers. They tend to drop signals or have other issues that are hard to explain in a few short sentences.
After you rebooted did you open your browser and type in the IP address to connect to the router software?

can you be more specific?
