My DGL-4500 always reverts back to default settings.
« on: September 01, 2011, 01:53:08 PM »

I set up my DGL-4500 to have my Xbox 360 at top priority (with lots of help from FurryNutz, respectively) but every now and then it reverts back to default settings. I have the custom settings saved to a gws file, so I can always just put them back, but it's very annoying to have to do this all the time. Does anyone know how I can stop this from happening?

You sure nobody has access other then you and the routers admin log in has a pw that you only know? Never heard of this router going back to defaults.

What FW is loaded and what FW version is your router?

Hold on, could changing the router's IP have anything to do with it?

Do you have a security on your router? Or a room mate that calls your ISP when the internet goes down? Check the logs too. Should say how it was reset. Usually tracks the IP of the person who logs in and when it was reset.

If its not on the logs...probably means some bad flash on your router. Heads up
