If you want to ruin your 5 day streak just dl several large files and watch it slow down before your eyes.

Try one single large file not multiple little files.

i.e. download the new windows 7 from Microsoft it's free for one year (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/download.aspx) or a netflix movie, if you have xbox360 a game demo.

Something that is going to have your router actively downloading for 5-10 minutes.

Death for sure.

I just finished downloading Windows 7 RC from the link indicated. The file size was about 2.64gb or so and it was downloading via a download manager. The download rate was fluctuating between 1MB/s to 2.45MB/s. I have fios 20Mb/5mb service. Amazingly, my router is still alive and kicking.

I downloaded the file via a hardwired gigabit connection to the router.

I've been able to download several GB of files, via direct and torrent, with a router uptime of several days.
No issues with a LAN download.  No issues with LAN torrents.  No issues with Xbox downloading multiple GB game demos, which is effectively LAN for me.

Only 1 reboot so far caused by my xbox360 trying to stream a movie from one of my LAN computers.  This is effectively LAN to LAN connection since the DGL sees the connection coming in via Ethernet.

It sounds like numerous people are experiencing issues with their router with wireless enabled.  There have been multiple reports of wireless causing network errors to show up, and I can only imagine heavy downloads worsening this effect.  I don't have either Wireless or UPNP enabled, and this might account for my stability.

Interesting, maybe there is more to the UPnP.  see, my router fails like clockwork after I send data to it from one of these devices, i.e xBox360 or Tivo s3, or my QNAP NAS.  Once I do a file transfer via LAN to one these then hit the WAN with a large download, DEAD.

And speaking of clockwork anyone else notice their router not keeping time? Mine never stays set.

Fingers are crossed and I got my lucky panties on.  ;D

I hope you all don't take this harshly but, I'm going to let you all go first on this one.  I got the 1.20FW down to a rhythm, I know how and when mine will fail and what to do and not to do to get it back up.

I'm too tired to figure out a new sequence of voodoo if this FW is also defective. (cough...errum..track record has not been so good..cough)

What can I do to try to replicate this error? I have tried downloading Windows 7 RC and it downloaded with no problems. In the router's 5hour and 16min uptime, I have no Lan error.
