Strange Loss of Connectivity to *WWW* requiring Router reboot
 

Hi there, every so often recently I have had an odd problem, Web Sites will stop responding in both IE and Firefox but things like MSN, IRC, Email and so on will still work. So it's not a DNS resolution problem.

Could it be a proxy issue? After I reboot the Router it rights itself but is starting to get annoying.

Thanks

Re: Strange Loss of Connectivity to *WWW* requiring Router reboot
 

Begins with B, ends in N and has E L K I in the middle somewhere.

Same here... hmm... :erm:

I upgraded the firmware a couple of weeks ago (bad move, maybe?) anyway, my actual Internet Connection and Wi-Fi now seems more stable, shame about being able to browse web pages, have you mailed Belkin support? I might try that next.

I find on mine, a different make of course, that when i cannot load web pages, i get Windows to repair the connection, by right clicking on my wireless connection in the system tray and then choosing repair. Could you try that?

No that doesn't work, need to kick the router. MSN, email, etc all work still though.

Although if it's "broken" for a while I can't even access the web interface on the router to remotely reboot I need to walk up to it and pull the power lead out GRR.

Yep same here, its like a fault with the NAT or something

Re: Strange Loss of Connectivity to *WWW* requiring Router reboot
 

OK this is getting annoying, three more times today now.

Re: Strange Loss of Connectivity to *WWW* requiring Router reboot
 

guys and gals, can you just send an email to belkin with all the details of the router (ie firmware and stuff like that) the more people report this in the more likely it'll be that we will look into this and make a fix.

the best thing would be if you could find when this happens, so say Nffc you said it happend 3 times with you last night, was you browsing the web or playing games and stuff when it occured, same goes for you Zeth. I'm going to see if I can replicate it at home then myself.
