8. Select the desired options and make the necessary changes.
9. After configuring all the settings, click on "Save" or "Apply" to save the changes and update the router's configuration.
10. Reboot the router for the changes to take effect.
Note: It is recommended to refer to the router's user manual or visit the D-Link support website for detailed instructions specific to your router model if you encounter any difficulties during the configuration process.

There could be several reasons why your D-Link router is not connecting to the internet. Here are a few possible causes and troubleshooting steps:
1. Internet Service Provider (ISP) issues: Check if there are any outages or problems with your internet service. Contact your ISP to confirm if there are issues on their end.
2. Cable/DSL modem connection: Ensure that your router is properly connected to the cable/DSL modem. Make sure the Ethernet cable is securely plugged into the WAN or Internet port on the router and the modem.
3. Power cycle the devices: Power off and unplug both the modem and the router. Wait for a few minutes, then plug them back in and turn them on. This can sometimes resolve connectivity issues.
4. Network settings: Access your router's web-based configuration interface through a connected device (such as a computer or smartphone). Check if the router's settings are properly configured, including the correct PPPoE, DHCP, or static IP settings.
5. Firmware update: Ensure that your router's firmware is up to date. Visit the D-Link support website and download the latest firmware for your specific router model. Follow the instructions provided to update the firmware.
6. Wi-Fi interference: If you are using a wireless connection, interference from other electronic devices, neighboring networks, or physical obstacles can affect the router's signal strength. Try changing the Wi-Fi channel on your router to minimize interference.
7. Reset the router: If none of the above steps work, you can try performing a factory reset on the router. Note that this will erase all your custom settings, so make sure to back up any important configurations beforehand.
If the problem persists after trying these steps, it may be worth contacting D-Link support or your ISP for further assistance.

To reset your D-Link DIR-867 router, follow these steps:
1. Locate the reset button on the back of your router. It is usually a small hole labeled "Reset."
. Unplug the power adapter from the router.
3. Insert a paperclip or a similar object into the reset hole and hold it down.
4. While holding down the reset button, plug in the power adapter back into the router.
5. Continue holding the reset button for about 10 seconds until the power LED on the front starts blinking.
6. Release the reset button and allow the router to reboot. This process may take a minute or two.
7. Once the router has finished rebooting, the factory default settings will be restored.
After the reset, you can access your router's configuration page by entering the default IP address (usually 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1) into a web browser and using the default login credentials (username: admin, password: blank or admin).

The default password for the D-Link DIR-867 router's admin account is typically blank or "admin" (without quotes). However, it is highly recommended to change the default password for security reasons.
