Anyone in the know about D-link routers?

Can someone help me?

 

I have a D-link DSL-502T Modem-router which i can't save my settings like forwarded ports etc to properly. I can save the settings & it will do it's whole reboot thingy just fine & the changed settings will be there. But say for example if i turn my PC off at night and turn it back on in the morning the Router has reset back to it's old settings. I even tried putting it on a DMZ & saving that but it reset next time i turned on the PC.

 

It's getting annoying having to re-forward ports or put myself back on a DMZ everyday i wanna play a game or something. As far as i can tell my router is on the latest firmware.

All D-Links have what's called "Volatile" memory. Meaning once it loses power, it loses it's settings. Same as the CMOS on a PC's motherboard.

 

Only way to fix that is to leave it on all night or purchase another router.
