Very Weird Problem - On the verge of destroying my router!!

marcush24 · 10-25-2007, 04:30 PM

Hi guys,

Im desperate for help. Firstly, I have a Belkin 802.11g Wireless Modem Router and we have 4 computers running XP connected to it, 3 of which are wireless. I am with Tiscali, on a 2mb speed.

Heres the situation;

I will be browsing the Xbox forums without a problem for a few hours, then the next minute, when i click a link, it will say the page cannot be displayed, or some of the images will have a red cross. So I reboot the router, and everything works fine, for a few hours, then the same happens again. This happens on all the computers at the same time.

Does anyone know what could be the problem?

I have tried disabling the router firewall, and also tried changing the MTU to 1400 from 1492, and also to 1450.

Thanks in advanced for any help!
Marcus

Have you looked for a firmware update for the router?
