Router Keeps Crashing - Any Ideas
Discussion
I have a Netgear DG834G router which runs the wireless network in my apartment. It is running WEP, MAC Address filtering and has the SSID broadcast switched off so I hope it is about as secure as it can be.
The trouble is that every 2 or 3 weeks it will have a bad day and keep crashing. The first I know is the lack of internet access or alternatively the phones in my house on the same ADSL ringing once.
Today it has been up and down like a whore's drawers, I reckon it has crashed about 40 times today.
When it crashes it doesn't lose any of its settings, soon reconnects and the wireless network soon comes back up. The difficulty I have is that the logs are cleared when it crashes and the internal clock resets itself to 2002 until it gets itself in order and corrects itself through NTP.
Anyone any ideas? I have checked and other than the unsupported beta version it is running the latest firmware.
FYI my ISP is Bulldog.
