I'm having problems every so often, and I dont see anyone else having this issue. When I'm downloading, every so often the router will stop all traffic. Then after about a minute, it seems to be fine again. I put on 1.35NA because I thought that might help, but it didn't. I have Comcast for internet too.

Ensure DNS IP addresses are being filled in under Setup/Internet/Manual?
Turn off Advanced DNS Services if you have this option.
Turn on DNS Relay under Setup/Networking.
Setup DHCP reserved IP addresses for all devices on the router.
Ensure devices are set to auto obtain an IP address.
Set Firewall settings to Endpoint Independent for TCP and UDP.

Try single mode G or mixed G and N?

Turn off all anti virus and firewall programs on PC while testing.
Turn off all devices accept for one wired PC while testing.

Any router log entries during this time frame?

Ok, I think I have everything set up like you said. I will test it out and let you know:)

Ya, Primary and 2ndary DNS should be filled in. You can find this under Status, Device Info, Wan section.

What about the mac address, do I leave it at zero's or click on clone to my pc?
Turn off Advanced DNS Services if you have this option. Its off
Try single mode G or mixed G and N? Its now set to mixed G and N

[FurryNutz]

Leave the Mac address zero'd for now. Shouldn't need to clone anything.
Keep us posted.

[budies3]

Will do, so far all is well. Some days it all works good though. I will let you know:)

[budies3]

Just a quick update, that all seems well so far:) Thank you again for the help!!

[FurryNutz]

Good to hear. Save off the configuration of the router to file for future use and back up.
Tools/System.

[budies3]

Will do:) It looks like it went down when I was at work today, I went through the logs, and I dont see what happened..... I will keep you updated!!

[budies3]

I was talking on the phone(Vontage) yesterday, with utorrent running and it shut down on me...... I have had it restart on me before with p2p software running. Do I just need a business router, rather than a home one?

[budies3]

Are we not able to talk about p2p software? Or has this been covered, and I didnt see it? If it has, can someone point me to the area please;) Thank you!
