Linksys WRT-54 G disconnecting

I got this router to share my DSL connection. It's been running but
every few days I can't connect to the internet. Also I can't even make
a connection with the router itself. I get the message that the router
is unavailable.
What I have done is unplug the power to the router and re plug it back
in. Sometimes this works. If it doesn't work I have to hit the reset
button and just reset the router to my settings again.
I got the latest firmware installed. Version 1.42.3.
Does anyone have any ideas as to what is going on?
Thanks for any help.

I might recommend getting a power conditioner for the router. I have
simular trouble out of my dlink 614+ router which I suspect could be power
troubles. I tend to have to unplug and plug back in the thing whenever I
notice the clocks have reset around the house. Sometimes I can manage to
restart from the admin page on a wired computer.

*knocks on wood* I havent had to reset mine since the summer. I suspect
we have more power flucuations in our area in the summer than winter. We
have mild winters, barely need heat (I heat my room with 2 pcs and a
candle). In the summer we see aweful temps of 110~120F through august.

I recently bought a new ups, I wish my old one didnt short it's battery
and blow a cell in the battery. I wanted to use it on the wireless access
point. For now I just have the ap on a surge surpressor on the same
breaker as my A/V equipment, 19" tv, sattlite, dvd, vcr and clock radio on
the breaker.

Have you checked to see if you can get a connection by connecting a machine
with an LAN cable to it? It could be that a device in the G range is
blocking the signal. Wireless phones are a big causer of this. My
Unidend phones knock down my wireless signal all the time.
