Hi, I've a new laptop with W.Vista and when I try to connect to internet
through wireless an error message appear.

I read that D-Link DI 514 isn't supported anymore in Vista.

Its possible to fix it?

To change my wireless router is my last option.

please help

Thanks

That has been a discontinued product for quite some time.


Start shopping. And stay away from D-Link. The only advantage their
products might have is price.

You get what you pay for.

Visit -

http://www.computer-aid.com.au/blog/2008/03/06/dlink-di-514-doesnt-work-with-vista/

It says -

For DI-514 disable bridge mode using an XP machine, it will then work in vista.

I have been using cheap D-Link 524 for at least two years and had no trouble. Just use a two way
software personal firewall to block incoming and outgoing, rather than a hardware router.

Thanks but I read these topic yesterday. I tried to find and disable bridge
mode but D-Link 514 does not have this option.

I have my D-Link 524 plugged in directly by RJ-45 to the modem, and that's all. The Laptop runs
Vista Home Premium and it finds the Air-route itself. I wish I knew more.

I have my D-Link 514 plugged in directly by RJ-45 to the modem too. But does
not work the Wireless conection (only by cable RJ-45).

I have Windows Vista Ultimate and detect my the DI-514 signal in the air but
does not connect.

Appear an "unknown error, try other network available."
