That Guy Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Anyone got any idea why my Belkin N router is dropping the internet connection? It's only happening every couple of days but it disconnects and then I'll restart the router and it still doesn't reconnect. It takes ages and about 6 restarts before it just randomly starts working again. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stewilo2005 Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Mine used to do that when we first got it, ours is a Pre-N router. No idea why it did it but it just stopped one day and has been fine ever since. Have you tried updating the firmware on it? Could something else be effecting it (wireless phone, etc)? Not really my thing routers but if it's faulty don't Belkin give a lifetime warranty on their products? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Guy Posted December 21, 2009 Author Share Posted December 21, 2009 Thanks for your help, but it's actually the modem bit of it that keeps dropping out, not the signal. It has been fine for a couple of days now. Hopefully it'll work. I looked for the firmware but every time I selected the file it said incorrect file type and didn't work.

Nolan Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 If it's the actual connection dropping and not just the wireless signal perhaps check with your ISP and check about any line problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
