I had that router for 2 years. After a year or so it did exactly what you are describing. Update to the latest firmware fixed it for me, but I ended up going wireless a few months after the update anyways.

 

Take it back to the store. If you cant update the firmware dont even continue to waste your time

 

Well, it hasn't disconnected at all overnight...

 

its conspiring to destroy everything at your most crucial momenth:

 

More than likely I'll be downloading a HUGE, CRUCIAL episode of State of Trance by Armin van Buuren on djmixes and loose connectivity as the speed of download is like really high and then I'll have to wait for it to reset and then build up the speed again or lose it because than that seeder has already been queued and then I'll be like oh fuck and the computer will laugh and I will cry then Jesus will cry then Satan will laugh then God will laugh because well he is God and nothing bothers him oy.

 

just remember,

baby jesus will always love you

 

Very reassuring.




Damn Firefox 2.0 and the lack of Alt+S functionality whilst on HAN!!!! :angry:

 

Hmm....I think the UPnP being enabled is causing connection drops...

 

Linksys routers are NOTORIOUS for dropping off when large amount of data are transferred through them. I have a WRT54G v4 wireless router and I put a lot of traffic through it and it used to reset itself or just freeze and I'd have to reboot it.

But do a google search on non-oem firmwares like DD-WRT, HyperWRT and OpenWRT and see if one of them works with your router, you'll be amazed and how much better it works.

 

to fix Alt+S... go to about:config and change these 2 values
