3 dlink routers no longer configurable

I have three d-link DI-704P's routers that I am using as print servers on
our lan. For this operation I am only using the LAN side of the router.
Everything worked fine until I discovered that I could no longer bring up
the webconfiguration pages on the routers. Two of them say that the page
cannot be displayed while the other says busy. They all return pings and
they all print as configured. I unplugged one of them and plugged it
directly into my PC's nic from the LAN side and then I was able to bring up
to config utility. This all sounds like a routing problem. Anyboady care to
take a swipe at it?

I have seen a lot of D-Link routers become un-login-able after they have
been running for a while.
Usually it's to prevent logins while the router is active (net
connected) like some of the alcatel junk does.

A power off/on usually resolves it.
