intensityx Posted June 7, 2002 Share Posted June 7, 2002 Could be your power supply...routers & switches are especially sensitive to spikes. If you don't have it plugged into a UPS i would try that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MxxCon Posted June 7, 2002 Share Posted June 7, 2002 unplug other puters, and just connect a single puter to cable modem. see if that prblm still exist. if it does then it's either comething w/ cable modem or your line..otherwise it's something on your network.

ahodes1 Posted June 7, 2002 Share Posted June 7, 2002 I had similar problems with a different router, I just set up IAS on one of the computers and turned it into a router/proxy and it works great now, faster too because of caching-- sure is nice when you are updating a few machines, they just retrieve the file from the IAS server's cache, and TrendMicro has an IAS virus scan, nice combination no problems so far.

vraa Posted June 7, 2002 Author Share Posted June 7, 2002 i know its not the power.. i do have UPS's.. my father will not allow me to setup a Gateway on one of the computers to have two NIC's in one computer or IAS as u called it i know the modem works because i have had it in a computer and only that computer before..

Vlad Posted June 8, 2002 Share Posted June 8, 2002 If your ISP didn't give you a static IP address, it's possible that the router (for whatever reason) is unable to renew it's address through DHCP. I seem to remember experiencing similiar problems with my BEFSR41. As for the LAN going down, it almost sounds like an IP address conflict.

astrokat Posted June 8, 2002 Share Posted June 8, 2002 what firmware are you using? Is the WAN or LAN going down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vraa Posted June 9, 2002 Author Share Posted June 9, 2002 its not a ip conflict.. the router assigns the routers.. how did u fix the problem? vlad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vlad Posted June 10, 2002 Share Posted June 10, 2002 It just went away, eventually. I also purchased a hub and sold my router to a friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
