Yep. I get the same thing on my DG834G (V1) running the latest
firmware. I have always used MAC filtering and port forwarding so I do
need to look up the addresses of attached devices and I get there in
the end but with little help from the router.
I have also noticed of late that wireless connections seem up and down
like a yo-yo. This is affecting two laptops at the same time so it
seems a router problem rather than a laptop problem. In fact over the
past couple of weeks I've flicked back and forth between the current
firmware and the previous release. But the thing is still up and down
like a whore's drawers. When the connections do drop there is no sign
at all on the router that anything is amiss - all the correct lights
remain lit. But even Netstumbler sees it one minute and loses it the
next.
I've done factory resets and so on, redefined all settings manually
and also tried restoring backed up config files but still the thing is
flapping about. I've got to admit that after almost two relatively
problem free years this thing is now really starting to annoy me.
