Hello,

I am having a problem with my wireless pre-N router (F5D8230-4) stability. It happens regardless of how close or far away I am from the router and on all of the machines I have in the house with various wifi cards (Intel/Netgear/Broadcom). It seems to reboot every few hours and leaves no information in logs. At first I thought it might be traffic coming from the Internet causing to crash but I have since put it behind a firewall (Linux) and by deduction it seems that is not the issue. I do have several other access points in the area that are broadcasting on channels 1,6,11. Current settings are Mac filtering ON, WPA On and channel on auto. I have tried to switch channels to see it would stabilize but this did not help. Any ideas on what might be the issue?? Any help or pointers is appreciated. =)

Thanks,
Joe

Hate to pop your bubble but that feature is built-in to all Belkin routers. Havn't found one yet that doesn't hang. When you are dealing with a non Std spec. 11n, you have to accept the bugs that come with it. Take it back an get a Netgear or Linksys product 11g.

HI,

Did you do the automatic firmware update. If not, please do. Your router may come with the old firmware, which buggy abd reboot many times. I have mine running like a charm. I love the Belkin stability.
