I have the exact same issue to the letter as you, it will be interesting to see if there are others out there will the same issue and if a fix/solution will become available. I am currently running Hardware Version: A2 & Firmware Version: 1.21

I had the same problem just a couple of days a go. My problem was due to windows silverlight. To correct the problem i uninstalled version 1 and intalled version 2 and everything seems to be working great now. Windows XP BTW.

Hey guys,

Well, to give a better answer to your problems I would need to ask a lot of questions. Before I get into all of that lets start with this, did it work fine just a few days ago and the problem just now is starting to occur? If that's the case you may just want to perform a system restore back a few days ago.

If that doesn't work;
-Try a different port on the router.
-Try a different network cable.
-Connect your wireless computer directly to the router and see if you have the same problems.
-Re-install network card.
-Test it out in Safe Mode /networking. If it works, then you have some type of software-related confict on your computer. If it doesn't you might need to reset the router if one of the above steps didn't work.

Best of Luck,

Russell

I have the exact same issue to the letter as you, it will be interesting to see if there are others out there will the same issue and if a fix/solution will become available. I am currently running Hardware Version: A2 & Firmware Version: 1.21

You are using the v1.21 with securespot firmware? Tried the v1.21 non-securespot firmware yet?
For me, revert back to v1.20, then confirm no issue, upgrade to v1.21 non-securespot firmware works fine, been running for >1 weeks now, stable.

The v1.21 with securespot simply cannot work for a handful of us in Singapore who tried all means, just keep getting the issue. All of us run with the non-securespot firmware and works fine.

Here is the non-securespot firmware:

I am having the same problems, internet going off for no reason...

Just out of curiousity, are your router's hot to the touch, when this happens?

Not sure if it's a settings, cable, firmware or overheating issue.

What makes you guys believe that the router is dosconnecting from the internet?
I've seen what your descibing on another thread but it was DNS related.

i get random disconnects after a day or two after resetting router. Turned off wireless still does it. Trying to play ps3 cant get 1 full game in most of the time. both ps3 and pc disconnect at the same time doesnt matter if one is off or not.

[EddieZ]

Not trying to discard any problems you guys have, but random disconnections can have several reasons. Channels chosen (automatic is not always the best option to go for), neighbouring channels, a client with spyware or a wireless NIC with inappropriate settings ect. So in order to solve these generic "random disconnects" you need to look at the whole chain.

[tielvej]

So where to start looking at the whole chain and selecting channels. Would a different router be an answer?

[EddieZ]

A different router would be my last resort. Can you confirm that the Internet connection in de modem get's offline or does it really concern your wireless connection or is a wired connection also disconnected from
the Internet?

PS: don't try them all at once. Try one, try for a while and when it does not improve, move on to the next option. 

Wireless:
-Try different channels (start at 1, etc)
-Use laptop to spot other neighbouring wifi networks and see what channels they're on (you can even use a tool like Wireshark)
- Check wireless driver on laptop/wireless client (newer one)
- Isolate the wireles device that's disconnection (take all others offline)

Network:
- Turn off all safety features (WEP, AES etc) on router and see if that is improving connection
- Turn off firewall on DIR655
- Check internal network with : no double NAT or double DHCP (in other words: do modem ánd router use DHCP and Network Address Translating? If so, this can cause serious problems)
- Assign static IP to DIR655
- Set connection speed to fixed 100 Mbit

I've disabled wireless but im not sure where to find static ip. I have noticed now that after i change settings and reboot once i cant save any other changes without restoring to factory. Any reason for this or could it be part of the problem?

There is a reason for including a manual in the package...

 Still it wont let me change to static it says invalid wan when i try to save. Router still reboots while trying to save anything anyways.
