Netgear Wireless-N router Disconnecting.

by .martin. . Updated 16 years ago

Hey guys (and Gals),

another one from me, see if you can help 😉

this time it is with my router (WNR3500v1)

my problem started a few months ago, the router would stop allowing wireless connections. the laptop (HP, dm3-1011tu), and an iPod touch, could not see the router or connect to the internet, the wireless indication light was still on, after a soft reset (unplug the power, wait 30 seconds, plug power back in) the laptop (and ipod) was able to connect again.

had no problems until about a week ago, when this problem started again, getting to the point where the past few days it has been happening every day. yesterday I decided to do a hard reset (paper clip in the reset hole for 20 seconds). after reconfiguring, the router would not allow any connections for about an hour, no matter how many times the router was (soft) reset.

before I take it back to the store I purchased it at to get it sent away for repairs, is this a known problem? do you have an solutions to fix this? as I am completely lost.

Thank you in advance,

Martin
