[nooneo]

I've had this model router for just over a year (don't laugh!) and it has recently started playing up.

Basic diagnosis based on:

Broadband connection went down Tuesday (12th) - ISP ntl. Until then I had no problem with router. If I had a broadband connection (Cable modem) then the router just needed configuring, if I needed to reset Cable Modem (I have reset modem and router many times without a problem - reset the router (reset button - then configured with dynamic Ip adress and mac address from Cable modem - winipcfg release/renew (win 98) then everything always worked fine!).

NTL engineer replaces cable modem (Model ntl 200 - though I am assured that this was just precautionary measure as problem is not at my end!)

Now broadband connection works fine if I dont use Mentor router - no problems

Connect FR4II and configure. Broadband connection works fine - for between 2 and 5 minutes then nothing - forced to reset everything then it just goes again in 2 to 5 minutes.

If anyone can shed any light I would be truly grateful
