Hello,
I have Comcast service with a Zoom modem/router. Every once in a while, devices connected by wireless to the modem will lose the ability to connect to the internet even while they are on the network. If I try to ping outside the network I get "reply from (current computer): destination net unreachable."
Even more troubling, if I disconnect from the router and immediately reconnect then the internet works.
This happens at random intervals, sometimes a few dozen hours between losses, sometimes 5 minutes.
I don't think there's any problem with the internet signal coming in. And I don't think it has to do with the computers as it has happened on 4 different devices including Windows, Android and OS X.
Is there something in the router that could be causing this?
