i have a problem with my belkin wireless access point + router.
every now and then, sometimes as much as every 5 minutes, it will need resetting, but turning it off and on again.
the connection drops out all the time, either it will just fail to connect, by "aquiring IP" indefinatly, or it will say "limited or no connectivity" or the network will just not appear at all in the list of avaliable networks.
we are running on a dynaic IP setup, using the router's DHCP server. there are 2 computers on wireless, and one is wired.
it happens much more frequently when my brother is playing CSS. either it will mess up for just me, or just him, or both of us. the wired computer is rarely on.
the problem can never be rectified by disabling and re-enabling the wireless adaptor, the router + access point itself has to be reset.
does anybody know what the problem is, as it has confused me greatly.
thanks in advance, joshd.
EDIT: just a thought, but could it be something to do with the channel? at the moment it is ch11 @ 11b and 11g mixed. could this be causing problems?
