Hi.

I have a problem that has been happening for the last few weeks.

I have 2 pc's connected by ethernet to NtlFreedom on adsl by a Linksys WAG354G router,
I run the main pc upstairs, but what has been happening recently is that when the pc downstairs is booted up the lights on the router go out and I have to wait for it to connect again to carry on working.
Once the router has all lights up again both pc's work fine.

However, I noticed today that when I switched the downstairs pc on and I went upstairs, the router lights had gone out but the upstairs pc was not running, so it would appear it happens whether upstairs pc is booted or not.

I have a third pc that is only used about 3 times every fortnight, when I start that one I have no problems with the router.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
