Router Trouble! Aztech WLAN ADSL ROuter.

[Maximus_Detritus]

OK, I've got an Aztech WLAN Router/AP, with integrated 4-port 10/100Mbs switch. I think the model is Aztech DSL305EW c/w Wireless AP.

It keeps on disconnecting. I've tried a variety of settings, disabling/enabling DHCP, changing the DNS addreses, etc. Still likes to cut out on me.

Can anyone offer me a list of settings to implement? There are three PCs on my home network, with 2 using Fast Ethernet PCI NICs, and one using a RealTEk Gigabit Ethernet NIC (my own PC), integrated into my mobo.

EDIT : I'm using TMnet Streamyx, dialing settings 0,35. ANy help, please?

Do you mean you keep getting disconnected from Streamyx or is your wireless LAN quitting on you all the time?

Keep getting DC-ed from streamyx. I have to reboot my modem alot, sometimes twice a night. It's frustrating. The Wireless AP is working fine if the Streamyx is working fine.

do you mean that your device get d/c from the lan via wifi too when streamyx d/c?

hmm. tried updating the firmware of the AP/dsl modem already?

The LAN is still working fine, only the internet (streamyx) just keeps getting dced.

You should also report this to TMNet. It could be a port issue.

I experienced something similar. My connection kept disconnecting every 15 mins or so.

They changed the modem but it didn't work. Ended up it was the port on TMNet's end.

OK, have spoekn with TMNet, and they say nothign is wrong on their side. Now another problem has cropped up. I can still connect to MSN, Yahoo (My IM) programs, but i cant SURF!

Each time i type in an add in my browser and try to surf, all i get is a 'network problem' pop up in Opera. ANy ideas?

Okay, had that problem before. All I did to restore the connection was to reboot my 3Com router.

If you cannot get into your router to reboot it, then just turn it off and turn it back on.

I know, thats what i currently do now. BUt is there a permanent fix? We have a home network spread out over two floors, with the router and one connected PC downstairs, and two connected PCs upstairs (mine being one of them).

Its just a real hassle to go downstairs each time it happens. Which is almost always once or twice a night. ANy idea on whats causing it? and how to fix it?
