Well, for a while now this router (DLink DI-624) has been behaving like crap, I keep losing connection each 10-15 seconds only for it to come back a few seconds later, if I so much as touch it the wrong way it freezes with all LEDs on and I need to unplug it and wait for about 2-3 minutes before it starts working again. I tried doing a firmware upgrade but predictably the router lost connection mid-upload, the router survived it but with the disconnects there's no way for me to upgrade or downgrade the firmware. Right now I have my PC connected directly to the modem with no connectivity issues, of course without the router I can't connect anything else. Does anyone know of anything that can be done to fix it, or should I just go and buy a new router?
I personally would buy a new router. It's not worth going through the trouble of trying to fix the thing when it already seems horribly broken.
I have actually had a similar problem with my Orange Livebox. It never disconnected but my intenet access slowed ot a painful crawl. I noticed that it also got very hot. All I did to fix it was order another power brick, adaptor or whatever you want to call it, and the problem was solved. Worth a try but just replacing the whole router will probably cost the same.
