Hi,

Got a Linksy BEFSR41 v2 router with Firmware Version : 1.46

On this router I have 2 PC's (Win XP Pro) and the Terayon modem. I have had this setup for over two years now with nearly no problems. However, the last two weeks I keep losing my connection. I doubt it is ntl as if I connect my modem direct to the PC & use ICS I can stay connected 24/7. If connected via the router I lose the connection every 24hrs exactly. On going into the router options (192.168.1.1) I can see the IP address from ntl ok, but uner DHCP the time left will be 0. If I press the option to renew DHCP lease it will do it for one hour. If I turn off the PC, unplug the modem and router and then start it all back up again, I get another 24hrs.

I've e-mail Linksys 2 weeks ago, had one e-mail response which asked me various questons, to which the answers were already in the original e-mail!!
