Hey, I'[m new here. I have a serious problem with my router that's caused me to stop using it for a while, and my dad said maybe you guys could help me out, so here I am.
My problem with that I have a DSL connection and two computers that I want to hook up to it. So I went to CompUSA and they pointed me in the direction of the routers. So I pick up a US Robotics model and bring it home, setting everything up exactly like it told me to. I fire it up, and at first everything's great. But within a few minutes, it stops trying to connect to the internet. Like, at all. I just get messages that websites cannot be reached. I've tried downloading stuff from Limewire right before this happens, and I noticed the bandwidth just DIES. Worse, when I open up the control panel through my browser to see just what the problem is, it only loads half the page. I hit refresh, and it loads a QUARTER of the control panel. And then it just sits there. So invariably I have to disconnect it, reconnect it, and then I'm good for another few minutes before it decides to die on me again. I went into the control panel when it was reconnected and checked out the admin time-out, and way-hey, it's disabled, so that can't be it. What's wrong with my router?
