just to advise you guys ...... this problem occurs only on the belkin f5d7230 version7000. and the problem only occurs if you plug the belkin router behind the VM modem without changing any configuration on the belkin router.!!!!

the belkin router renews its ip adress every 25 secs to be precise.

if anybody would have tried to amend anything on the belkin setup , like applying a security key, changing the name of the ssid etc. the problem would have not occurred.

makes you think hey . how many people are there that connect a router and don't even configure wireless security on it.:-)

anyway yes a new firmware was released by belkin and that solves the problem . so the problem is not the hardware its the firmware of the device.

so my suggestion to you gulf4uk is to either set an wireless encryption on your router ( so that you stop the whole neighborhood enjoying your internet) or download the latest firmware from the belkin website and apply it.

now how I know these things remains a mystery
