Cisco DPC 3925 with D-link DIR 868L

Question

Hi everybody,Need help here. I've just bought the D-Link 868 but I have a CISCO DPC 3925 connected with my internet service provider which was given by them. The wifi signal is horrible and I do believe that I will need to desable the wireless signal coming from CISCO to be able to use the signal from dlink. If this is correct or not can anyone give me the steps to do this installation / connection? Thanks a lot!Fabio.

Follow these steps.

1. Log in to Cisco. Under admin page change operating mode to Bridge and save settings.

2. Disconect all devices from cisco. Now connect your D-Link Internet port to Cisco LAN port. Turn on and off your Cisco. Your D-Link will now have internet. Remember to connect all your devices to D-Link.

Let us okow if you are still stuck.

You can try this.- Connect to the network using Ethernet cable from the computer to the modem.- Open your web browser and enter 192.168.0.1- Enter  for the user name and  for the password, and click Log in- Click Wireless  Basic Settings  Disable Wireless Network- Click Applications & Gaming  DMZ  Click Enable- Enter your wireless router IP address- Click Save Settings and wait 5 minutes for the modem to be rebooted.

Hi KaiBoon, thank you for your response. If you don?t mind I have a few more
questions:

Where can I find the router IP address?

After make the process you mentioned should I connect the moden and router
through the internet connection (router) and Ethernet connection (moden)?

Thank you again and sorry for my ignorance.

Fabio.

Hi KaiBoon, it's me again.I did all the steps until enabling the DMZ, but while doing that I could not enter the DMZ host IP address. Got message stating that could not be a LAN number. I've put 192.168.0.1 as the IP address.The internet is not working and I assume is due to not completing the DMZ configuration? Thanks again for your patience.Fabio.

For that, you can key in the IP Address that is being assigned to the D-Link router. You can see it from the Cisco Admin Page.

Thank you!!!! It is working! My only dissapointement is now regarding the signal strenth. Thought it will cover my entire home, but for some reason is not covering more than my living room. Any suggestions here????
