I've been getting all my wireless connections (wired as well I guess) disconnected repeatedly in the past few months since I changed my network at home and upgraded the dlink 655 firmware to 1.33
I changed my network so that now I have the dsl modem hooked up to the dir655 wired. I have wireless shutoff on the 655 and have it wired to a netgear which acts as an access point. I hope that is clear....
Since doing this, I get random losses of internet access...so I looked at the log and see the below...
I have turned off securespot and also turned off dns relay as some others have suggested, to no avail...
HELP!!!!!
Thanks.

Hi lip,
Why would you turn off the D-Link Router's Wireless portion and use NetGear Wireless? I would remove the NetGear and turn on the D-Link Wireless portion and plug everything into the D-Link and see what happens? Try going back to your old Network and see what happens.

Thanks for responding! :)
To be frank, the netgear unit seems to perform far better...basically I was using that for something else before and then I decided to integrate it into my home office network...
I have my DSL modem(it has wireless as well but I turned it off), connected to the dir-655(wireless turned off as well) which acts as a router only, then this is in turn connected with ethernet to the netgear unit which is installed in the middle level of my house (wireless on) so that I get a signal throughout the house...I live in a 5 level house and the main computer is in the basement so if I just have the wireless in the basement, it doesn't go much farther than the basement...
I hope that makes sense.
I can try switching the d-link and netgear around but the netgear has both frequencies and is generally better wireless so it would be a negative thing to go in that direction(then again, right now it's just not working right). However, the problem only seemed to occur after I upgraded the dir-655 firmware.

Hi lip,
I never upgraded my firmware past 1.21 and it is working just fine. Go back to Firmware 1.21. There is a way to do so documented by someone else on this forum.

Thanks mate!!!!!
This sorted my problem out...I can't believe I wasted so much time fooling around with settings and it was just poor firmware by dlink...
