Default Re: File Transfers Between Computers?

How do I check if my router's firmware is up to date, and if it isn't, how do I update it?

Err good question. Check your router manual and/or manufacturer website.
As for the firmware itself, you usually download it from the manufacturer website.

start->run->cmd->ipconfig
default gateway will be the router's ip. Should be the menu IP as well, though rented equipment is often protected from user changes.

Thanks, found it. It's 192.168.1.254 for those wondering. Checked, seems the firmware is up to date. Any other possible diagnostics?

Feel the router for heat? I know my DI-624 used to be a bitch about heat. Like it would work fine if I flipped it over on hardcore transfers :P

LOL! Well, it was sitting on a phonebook with a phone on top of it so it wasn't exactly getting airflow. I took it and put it on a couple of pens under it to keep the bottom off the desk. We'll see how that goes.

If it is the actual internet connection (the modem to the internet), it may help to have the company do a line check on the data side to see if the signal strength is within specs and ask them to place a 24 hour monitor on the line so they can troubleshoot the problem.
If it only happens to networked computers then it may be a bug in the firmware and the DSL company may need to replace it... or you can pick up a regular router and let it do the routing and the modem handle the connection side of things.







Thanks HL and Corsair!
