Vista - D-Link Router Connection

You say it works through a Linksys Switch, but not when directly
connected. You aren't using a crossover cable when you connect to the
switch are you? If so, you can't use the same cable to connect
directly to the router. Your symptoms are consistent with using the
wrong type of cable (crossover instead of direct, or vice versa).

I asked him to try a different cable early in my first reply and he
responded that it didn't help. That was one of my thoughts as well
(x'over).

I just installed a Linksys WRT150N using the same cables and it works
perfectly. Can't figure out why the D-Link was not happy. Thanks again!
