If I remember correctly, d-link has a lot of information on their website about how to make their product work with different connections and such.

http://support.dlink.com/

Place in middle of page to select your product, and go from there. I've had a few dlink products which have given me problems, but the one good thing about them is I've always found the answer on their website.

Ogopogo: OK...To Configure the D-Link Router: Open a web browser and browse to the Router's address. The default address is: http://192.168.0.1

You will need to log in. The default User name is admin (all lower case). The default password is blank.

You can reset the router to default settings by pressing the "reset" button on the back of the unit.

Once you have connected/logged into the router, you can configure it based on your ISP's settings.

Ogopogo: I've never used a D-Link router, but I have a friend who has. Have you been able to access your router's configuration? My guess, is that it was set up for your last ISP. Until you reconfigure your router for your new ISP, it won't work. I will check with my friend on configuring a D-Link router.

Ogopogo: There are lots of ways to connect/configure your network (Internet access). Lets start with the router...First, what type of router do you have? Usually, Your DSL (cable modem) connects to your router (you did say you have a router). Then your computers connect to the router to get internet access.

Usually, to configure your router, you have to open up a browser and type in the router's URL (IP address). Here is the default URL for Linksys routers: http://192.168.1.1

Most DVD players on the PC are just readable, not writable. So U would need something (like nero) to burn onto DVD.

Verändert von WakeUpPeople (29. April 2006, 12:51:41)
Can someone recommend?
Imagine you receive system message from windows as MessageBox and want to save it as text.
Is there some fast and free solution with fewest possible steps to put the image via alt+printscreen to clipboard, decode to text by some OCR software which saves the result back to clipboard as text?
In example I mentioned of course there is another solution aswell, to find window handle, then to find the text, but I mean generally to convert image to text on the fly.

Summertop: I'm sure you know that, it doesn't make it any more correct though ;) A NAT router that has just one IP address will make all computers behind it appear to have one IP address, yes. But it doesn't have too.

I've got a router sitting right here that doesn't, actually. I've got all of 2001:1b40:d::/48, router has 2001:1b40:d::1, this system has 2001:1b40:d:3:2c0:9fff:fe3c:131d and other systems have... umm.. other ones.

Thema: Re:
bitwisexor: Well, I'm not sure how the NAT (network Address Translation) works, But I do know that two computers behind a router will appear to the internet as having the same IP address. That is, they will both appear to have to IP address of the router. For example: If you have a Linksys wireless router, the computers behind it will have private IP address (192.68.x.x). If you connect to a server on the internet, the server will see them as the public IP assigned to the router (usually assigned by your ISP).

No. That's not even true for NAT (as you can have two computers sharing one IP address and two computers sharing another with NAT - still NAT, but they're not all the same IP).

Thank you all guys for your time and effort. I have already received the information I wanted. These two nicks are pissing me off in the exact same way and I just wanted to know whether their same IP addresses would support my theory or not. I would not condemn them publicly, since, as you say, there's no 100% proof they're actually the same person, however, I made my own mind and that's what I had been aiming for.

Thema: Re:
Summertop: Absolutely. From time to time my brother and I play with the same IP because we see each other and are behind the same router. You can't conclude anything from that fact!

Summertop 
Thema: Re:
Pedro Martínez: It could be a family member. Two computers connected to the internet would most likely connect through a router. Once the connection goes out on the internet, they would both have the same IP address. What would be a better tracking would be their MAC address. This is used for NAT so that data comming back can find the appropriate computer. Remember, to the internet, everycomputer behind a router appears to have the router's IP address.

Did I get this right?

Thema: IPs
Hmm, Networking 101 ;)

Ok... assuming this is IPv4 were talking about (it is), an IP address is a 32bit number . It is included in IPv4 packets and is used by systems to route the data.

In the Internet, it works as so:
1. ICANN (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers) delegates 'blocks' of IP addresses to RIRs (Regional Internet Registries)
2. RIRs delegate 'blocks' of IP addresses to LIRs (Local Internet Registries - typically your ISP)
3. LIRs delegate IP addresses to users.

There are proboably lots of rules governing RIRs and LIRs but I don't do internet politics.

Anyway, most end users will be given a 'dynamic' IP. In other words, your IP will be change and be within one of the ISP's blocks. It may change whenever you reconnect, hourly, daily, monthly, daily and whenever you reconnect, whenever you reconnect if you've been disconnected for more than n, when a full moon occurs at the same time as a solar storm is occuring, etc.

As for IP's being easily spoofed: yes. As I said, it's just a bit of data in a packet... BUT, it's not easy to get it out on the Internet anymore.

Most ISPs will block packets containing an IP address they consider based on differing criteria invalid. Even if they don't, you'll only be able to spoof the IP address within the ISP as whatever the ISP is connected to will most likely block packets not coming from within the ISP's network, etc. But it gets worse - or better (it mostly depends on which way you enjoyed rsh ;) - even if you manage to spoof your IP address, will you get the data back? Uh, no.. the person holding that IP address will or - as the case may be - won't. But you won't get it. And it's a lot harder to pretend you are (and there are good - or bad (it mostly depends on which way you enjoyed rsh ;) - reasons for doing so) now, too.

But, as mentioned, there are plenty of proxies aronud. And IP addresses change in some cases. And people get cracked. And people quit an ISP and somone gets their IP. So, very bad idea to use it even as just a possibility. Hell, it's profiling! It's discriminating against people who run Tor servers, for instance...

Thema: Re:
Pedro Martínez: Would that necessarily prove it? I was told I get a different one each time I log onto the internet because I use AOL. I don't know what an IP address is. Are they specific to a single phone line? How large of an area would one overlap? Could a neighbor of mine have the same one? In the same house? What about people that play in different locations? I've played from Reno, Nevada before. What about people that use a cable modem or DSL to access the internet? Would the cable system have the same IP for the whole city?

Thema: AOL vs. Linksys router
I am trying to help my parents install a linksys wireless router. They are using AOL with a Cable Modem. I can get the router up and running. the computer connects to it just fine. I can browse the internet with IE. I cannot get AOL to succesfully log in. If I connect the cable modem directly into the computer (bypass the router), AOL connects just fine. Any Suggestions?
