Need help with router
-
Just bought a Linksys router and I get disconnected so often. Didn't complete the setup cos it says there's no internet connection. But once i exit the setup, there's connection. So I just leave the setup alone and start using but keep getting disconnected. What should I do?

Use the cable provided.
It has got to do with Linksys firmware. The recent few versions are giving out lots of problems. -

So it's a firmware problem, nothing to do with your ISP.
To stabilize it, try using the cables provided.
Tech support probably won't be able to help... -
Try calling the Product support and they should be able to help you. We bought a Linksys wireless router a few months ago, and tried different methods but couldn't get it to work. Eventually we gave up and called the helpdesk and the person talked us through on the phone and got it to work.Originally posted by hLing:Just bought a Linksys router and I get disconnected so often.

Very fiddly process. Also, you need to know the IP address of your current ISP (i.e. Star Hub). -

try and direct connection instead
and see whether is it, your router problem or your low signal...... -

Hmm... tested Netgear before, no problems with it.Originally posted by Maurince:Hmm.. I seemed to have the same problem with mi netgear.. signal keeps dropping.. i can't stay online for less then 10 mins.. makes me feel like throwing the router away.. so anyone has any idea to help me too?
There could be something that's interfering. If your router is near electronics or handphone, use another channel.
If this doesn't work, try using a wired connection. If it isn't stable even with a wired connection, it has probably got to do with the hardware. You will have to call up Netgear support. -
i've tried wired too leh.. but signal lost for web browser after a while.. but i have no problem with mi downloading of torrent.. that is the funny part.. so what i usually do is to reset the modem or router..
