Title: Wireless restarting every couple of seconds
Post by: abhiku on December 20, 2009, 10:25:49 PM

Hello,

I have weird issue going on. Wireless on DIR-655 router seems to be restarting every couple of seconds causing the laptop to disconnect.

Nothing was changed on the router. I'm running 1.32NA firmware since July.

What can cause this issue? Do I need to replace the router?

Firmware: 1.32NA,  2009/07/09
Hardware: A3

Try resetting the router completely. Otherwise you might be in the possession of a dead one.

I will do that.

Should I save the config and after resetting the router, upload the previous saved config?

or

I should configure the router from scratch after resetting?

Thanks for advice

I would advise to config manually from scratch. Sometimes when updating the firmware the restore will make your router make endless reboot-loops.

Fixed it by disabling IPV6 on my other desktop. Looks like IPV6 with Symantac is having issue.

No more wireless restarts....also I didn't reflash the router to factory default and reconfigured it.

I would get rid of the Symantec while your at it.
