So, next idea would be to log in and look at configuration settings on
the router. I see on the D-Link website that the DIR-625 supports
802.11n, does your adaptor? Does the driver your using on your Linux
box know about 802.11n? Has wireless been turned off on the router?
Has the router been told to ignore any non-802.11n connection? If it
is an 802.11n type issue, can you set everything to use 802.11g?


Few ideas.
