This article is about steps to convert the D-Link Wireless Router into Bridge mode. If you want to connect two LANs via WiFi, you need a wireless router in bridge mode. In this tutorial, I will teach you how to configure the D-Link wireless router in bridge mode to communicate with another WiFi router to connect two LAN networks. The network diagram is like this. One router is in Access Point or wireless router mode but the second router is in bridge mode.

Let us check what does putting a D-link router into bridge mode do. How does it work differently from normal mode?

The D-link device in the bridge mode accepts a point to point communication only.

It is important to remember that once we change D-Link router into bridge mode, it will not connect to other WiFi clients and its Internet port also will be disabled.

Every device connected to the Ethernet ports of the D-link router will connect to the WiFi from the first Router.

I have been using an Acer Aspire Laptop for one year, and the major problem I am experiencing is its occasional freezing. I am using Microsoft Windows 10 pro 64 bit on it. Due to its random freezes, I cannot rely on this Acer Aspire Laptop for my work presentations and coding. If it gets stuck in the middle of a work, mouse and keyboard stop responding. Even the keyboard combination [Ctrl] + [Alt] + [Del] don't work.

I need to press the power button to restart the device.

When I searched on the Internet, I am not alone with this problem. A lot of people complain about the random freezing issues with Acer Aspire ES1 laptops.

Yesterday accidentally I received an error message while connecting to the Internet from my laptop "Error 797: A Connection to the Remote Access Server was not made because the modem was not found".

I connected Photon to my laptop and clicked the Netconnect connection wizard. The error message I received looks like the one in the image given below.

Team CoreNetworkZ explained various ICMP error messages in this blog. Today we are explaining one of the common ICMP error replies when you ping a remote device from your computer, Destination Port Unreachable message. You can see this error while you ping a remote device or remote server from your PC if the ping operation could not succeed. This tutorial discusses the reasons for getting the ICMP error Destination Unreachable (Port Unreachable) and explain how to resolve this issue.


What Does Destination Unreachable (Port Unreachable) Mean?
The Destination Port Unreachable error tells that the ping packet we send failed to reach the desired destination and dropped.

Let me explain this with a real-world example. When someone pings a remote host, the ping packets will travel from his device to the destination.

Ping packets will reach the destination gateway, and the remote router redirects them to the exact host.

If the host is too busy or the device port does not support the typ…
