Every now and than my Linksys router loses the connection to the internet. I have to release / renew the IP within the web interface and it starts working again. Does anyone know why this happens and how to stop it from doing this. I am currentlyrunning the newest version of firmware and the problem still exists. It loses the connection intermittantly.

It sounds like your ISP may be providing you an IP address assigned through DHCP. I would check to make sure that the router is configured to use DHCP. Hopefully that will do the trick.

I use this same unit and experience problems when I was working with a one way cable modem. The modems IP would change on a redail sometimes and the router would take a bit to pick up the new IP to direct everything to. Once I went 2 way the trouble stopped.
