Until recently, my Netgear WGT624 wireless router has worked flawlessly.
Within the past 3 weeks, I get intermittent connection drops, where I
get no signal going to either of my wireless adapters in my home set-up.
One card is a Netgear WG511T and the other is a Linksys USB adapter.
When I notice the connection drops on one adapter, I can verify the same
problem on the other. To solve the problem, I have to power cycle the
router. Some times a single power cycle works; other times it takes
numerous power cycles, every 10 to 15 minutes.
The Netgear support folks have suggested I disable all security features
(disabled SSID broadcast, WEP encryption, Mac address filtering) to
solve the problem. Obviously, to me, that seems like they are just
hoping I go away and not push for a hardware exchange.
Anyone have any thoughts on this?
