Wireless Router Question

[MarkinAZ]

I too have a similar issue with my router set-up here in Valencia, CA. I have Time Warner Cable. The cable comes from the wall into the cable modem. Ether net cable from the cable modem into my D-Link, and another ether net from the D-Link into the Dell PC. I use the D-Link to work from the back bedroom area.

Generally, everything works fine as far as signal strength, but usually once or twice per day, I loose connection due to the D-Link freezing (or showing all “green” lights). This means that I must disconnect the power from not only the D-Link, but the cable modem too, so both units can reset. I’m trying to figure out why the freezing or disconnecting issue is occurring with the D-Link and how best to resolve the issue. Sometimes I feel maybe the D-Link is overheating due to being on on a regular basis and variation in room temperature. Some that I’ve thought of too are:


1. Maybe downloading a new driver, etc from the D-Link site for this particular unit;
2. Maybe having someone chuck it into the air while throwing a couple of rounds at it from my Remington P870 (a great stress reliever and it does lower your blood pressure too);
3. Or, maybe just putting a crowbar in my wallet and purchasing a new D-Link…

What do you think?
