Title: Losing connection to modem
Post by: stogs on September 19, 2009, 07:35:18 AM

I am losing connection from my router to the modem, it happens several times throughout the day.  I have to either wait a few minutes or restart the router to get my internet connection back.  I have the DNS relay turned off, is this the freezing issue that people are reporting?

Thanks.

IMHO the "DNS relay" issue solution is bogus on 1.3x.

Could you post both the logs from router and modem?

I am having the same problem until I turned of WISH Wireless Intelligence Stream Handling. I did this two days ago and have had no more problems. I would try that and see how it goes.

Hi Stogs & others who have similar problem,

If I may suggest, try looking @ this site: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/940266

& maybe investigate the relationship between the Nat features of the router & the

" netsh interface tcp show global " attrbs.

Here are the settings I am using on a test system:

I have found many of the suggestions in this forum helpful, but  I have also had to experiment w/ a number of settings ( router wise & thru Windows, I have a Vista setup ) to find a correct balance.

I am not sure if this will help u, but here are some of my settings I think may be of interest to u.


- Firmware: 1.32NA
- Advanced DNS - Disabled
- QOS - engine - disabled
- QOS - Traffic Shaping - disabled
- QOS - Auto Uplink Speed - disabled
- QOS - Auto classification - disabled
- QOS - Dynamic Fragmentation - disabled
- Manual uplink speed - 2048 kbps
- Firewall Settings - SPI - disabled ( Have software firewall configured )
( the SPI disabled is a experiment, some NAT/SPI enabled routers do not play well w/ Vista, in my case )
- Wan Port Speed - 1000Mbps

Using these settings I have seen speeds of over 2000kb/sec


Hope this helps
