Youcan configure your Cloud Router's wireless settings through the mydlink.com website, the mydlink Lite app, the QRS Mobile app, or through its web interface. Note: For each of these methods, you will need to be using a PC or device that is connected to the Cloud Router.

To change your wireless settings through the mydlink.com website:1. Sign in to mydlink.com.2. Select your Cloud Router, then go to its Settings page to access its wireless settings.Method B:To change your wireless settings with the mydlink Lite app:1. Open the app and sign in to mydlink.com.2. Select your Cloud Router, then tap on the LAN section to access your router's wireless settings.Method C:To change your wireless settings with the QRS Mobile app:1. Make sure you are wirelessly connected to your router, then open the QRS Mobile app.2. Follow the on-screen instructions to configure your router.Method D:To change your wireless settings manually through the web interface:1. Open a web browser and go to or Enter the device password(this is blank by default), then log in.3. Go to SETUP > Wireless Settings to adjust your wireless settings.

I recently purchased an Orbi RBK50 system to improve the WIFI in my home, I originally set it up in AP mode and everything works well, however in this configuration I cannot use any of the Orbi router settings like disabling connected devices etc.

I would like to setup the Orbi in Router mode and use my DLink DSL2870B as a modem only so as not to get any conflicts, double NAT etc, however I cannot work out how to do this. I have tried setting up the Orbi in Router mode and everything appears to work, but I'm not sure this is the correct way to set up.

I have been through the DLink manual a number of times but I can't work out how to proceed, is it ok to continue with the Orbi in router mode connected to the DLink modem/router without disabling the router part or will this cause issues down the track?

If you bridge the DSL Modem, you need to input your DSLs PPPoE user name and PW for your account into the Orbi routers UI. You need to see if the Orbi supports PPPoE connections first of. I don't see PPPoE in my UI.

If it doesn't, then you can keep the DSL modem/router in router mode and use it's DMZ for the IP address it give the Orbi router on it's WAN port. Then you can use the Orbi router in router mode.

Be sure to check that the DSL modem is using a different IP address for it's LAN port. If it's using 192.168.1.1 then this conflics with the Orbi routers default IP address which is the same. You can change the IP address ON the Orbi router to something different. 192.168.0.1 or .2.1.

Unfortunately this solution did not work, It appeared ok at first, however, the D-Link began rebooting itself over and over every 10 mins or so until I removed the DMZ and placed Orbi back into AP mode.

The D-Link has a couple of options - bridge mode ( I emailed my ISP for help with settings but have yet to receive a reply, I just get a msg stating "no default route" when I attempt to use bridge mode), and also "PPPoE passthrough".

The reboot loop makes it hard to get back into the DLink web interface to change the settings back again (you have to be quick between cycles). Funny thing is - everything else on the DLink works fine, it's just the moment you attempt to put Orbi into a DMZ that things go haywire...

Without the DMZ I get double NAT, so I guess I'm stuck again for now unless I can work out how to bridge the modem, however, my ISP seem to be ignoring my emails and I'm guessing if they do reply they'll tell me they don't support third party routers.

I have have made two instals of PiHole on two raspberrypi's - the first one is set up on an Airport Express router and I have changed the router's DNS to the PiHole and it works just fine. The second one is on a DLink 850 router and it does not work. I read many reports about the inablility to change DNS settings for LAN on DLink so I am just changing the DNS settings on my Macbook that's linked to the router through LAN

If it lacks the options to assign DNS servers to the clients through DHCP, alternatives are to configure all your clients DNS settings manually or ...

disable DHCP on the router and activate the DHCP service from Pi-hole as a replacement:

I've tried to activate the Pi-Hole DHCP server but then the Pi-Hole cannot access the internet due to the inability to set LAN DNS on the D-Link router. Now I have set the client DNS to the Pi-Hole server but ads are still not blocked alas!

I cant see the settings that are required to push a DNS server to the clients through DHCP.

Best is to use Pi-hole's DHCP service.

If you configure Pi-hole's "Upstream DNS Servers" to that of for example Google's, you circumvent DNS resolution via your router (take it out of the loop).

I then went back to routers DHCP and setting ip address of Pi-Hole as DNS on my client and in this case, I was back on the internet but no ad blocking (for example on [Mod Edit: Link no longer available])

Did you disconnect & reconnect network on the client or reboot it after you switched DHCP from router to Pi-hole ?

Whenever you change DHCP settings, you need to do the above or those settings wont propagate (or wait until the DHCP lease expires which could take a long time).

You said you were able to ping Pi-hole after the switch but were unable to do DNS lookups against it.

Were you able to SSH into the PI after the switch ?

Flipping on the Pi-hole DHCP service should not alter any of the IP details for Pi-hole.

It could be that your router does something like below:

You could also try connecting a CAT5 cable straight from Pi-hole to one of your clients.

See if the client receives an IP address from Pi-hole and try to do the lookup again with the router out of the loop.

Rebind protection - I guess that's what my router is doing - I don't know how to turn it off though, its a D-Link DIR850 router and I've seen many issues that people have logged with this router on pi-hole

I have now gone back to the following config:

DHCP on router

Client connected via Ethernet to router and DNS on client pointing to Pi-hole ip address

Ads are still not blocked - I ran pihole -d and uploaded the debug data - token is ndis41x35d

In this article, we are going to setup our D-Link router. Now we are not only focussing on connecting to the internet, but also on some other important settings. Think of securing your WiFi, using the right DNS servers to speed up your internet connection and creating a guest WiFi network.

Before we can connect our D-Link router to the internet we need to figure out how we can connect it. The D-Link router is a router and modem, so it can make the connection to your ISP itself, but we need to know how the internet is provided by your ISP.

The difference between a modem and a modem/router is that a modem only makes the connection to the internet. Where a router connects all the device together so you can print on your network printers, share files between computers and use the internet connection. Most consumer routers also provide WiFi and they have multiple ethernet ports (RJ45). A modem only has one ethernet port that you use to connect a router behind it.

We have done all the prerequisites, so we can now start with actually setting up the D-Link router. I assume your connected the router and put the internet connection in the WAN port and connected your computer with one of the LAN ports.

Our D-Link router is now connected to the internet, but we also want to set up our wireless network. By default, your router will have a wireless network that you can connect to. You will find these details on the bottom of the router.

But leaving things default is never a good idea, so we a going to change our wireless network name, pick a new password, optimize our wifi signal and disable the Wifi protected setup (because these are to easy to hack).

The D-Link router supports a guest wifi network. This way you can give your guests internet access without letting them on your private home network. The guest network is a separate Wifi network with its own wireless network name and password. Enabling it on a D-Link router is pretty easy.

During the internet connection setup, we skipped the DNS part. A DNS server is the dictionary of the internet. Almost everything we do with the internet requires a DNS server to translate a domain like amazon.com to an IP address. And because nearly everything you do requires a DNS server, selecting the fastest one will accelerate pretty much everything you do online. Your ISP also has a DNS server and those are in most of the case, not the fastest servers. So using another one can speed up your internet with more than 30% easily.

To speed up your internet connection we can also prioritize important network traffic. In a household your share your connection with all the members in your household. If somebody is watching Netflix while another is downloading the latest game on Steam you might notice that Netflix will need to buffer or lower the video quality. This happens because the download is consuming almost all the bandwidth that is available.
