Don't know how=20 difficult it is with that D-Link, but try using 192.168.99.0/24 behind th= e=20 D-Link and see if it is a NAT routing issue. (ie the D-LInk believes tha= t=20 every 192.168.100.* address should be on the inside interface and not=20 outside.) =09Cable type could also be an issue, as well as the rest of the advice y= ou have=20 gotten, just wanted to get my two cents in.
