Router keeps resetting??

Hi all,
I have a linskys wireless router which keeps resetting everytime I switch it off at the mains? It used to work perfectly but then we got a new modem because the old one broke and now I have to reinstall it (using the cd-rom) everytime I want to use my laptop.
I can't leave it plug into the mains all the time because the socket is used for otehr things and gets too hot.
Any ideas anyone???
Thanks

Well it seems that router is not configured properly …in that case you need to open routers set up page using http://192.168.1.1.
Let me know who your internet service provider is.

Airport Extreme (n) router keeps resetting.

My internet keeps going on and off, Ive reset to factory defaults and it keeps resetting every 10-15 minutes for a few seconds. The only thing I have changed is added 1 port forward.

I have the exact same problem and it has only been since just after the new years actually about the time the new time capsule was released it started happening I don't really want to hard wire my connection that is why I have wireless router so my Mac doesn't have to be like pc with wires coming out of it like an octopus as a caveat my time machine stopped working without warning too a few days ago??????????????HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM anyone else?

Linksys WRT54GC keeps resetting

Out of sudden my Linksys wireless router started to reset a few times a day. This results in all customisations being lost and having default SSID without encryption.
I successfully upgraded the firmware to the latest version 2 build but not change. In the limited logs of the router I don't see anything strange.
There is no problem with router's functionality, it's just that it keeps resetting and then I have to reconfigure all the previous settings. Importing them is not a long term solution.
From time to time the Power LED light is orange (this could result in reboots). I have no idea why this problem occurs.
The user guide says nothing about the orange light ot the power LED. Could be some hardware problem but it is something not persistent.
Any hints are appreciated.

Make sure the power adapter is properly connected to the router and to the power outlet. Make sure also it is the correct power adapter for the router. The output of the power adapter should be 3.3 V DC, 2.0 A. If the power adapter is correct, then it could be a possible hardware issue. Make sure the firmware has the version 1.06.1. If it is the latest firmware installed, do a firmware re-flash. It means, you still need to do an upgrade using the same firmware version. After that, do a reset and powercycle the router. After the upgrade process, reconfigure the router.

Display screen keeps resetting every 5 miutes

Our business computer is an Imac G5 10.4.11 Tiger. The display screen keeps resetting every three minutes. It just flashes and resets itself. I don't loose anything but it's very annoying. I've reset the pram & nvram with no luck. I've also done all the repairs off the start up disk. Any thoughts?

Hey Michael,
I brought my Imac up to the Apple Store where we purchased it from. They had Friday & Saturday and called Sunday saying it was done. My wife brought it home and we plugged it in only to find it's still has the same problem. My wife said they went through the entire machine from top to bottom.
I called the store today and had to schedule my complaint with a service tech. I brought the machine up there myself and went through the steps (It kind of scares me when I know more than the kid helping me). I understand they have to learn somehow, I own a door & window company and totally see things from both sides. I asked for a supervisor, explaining I wasn't upset with the other staff person, I was just upset with the computer. I explained to them that I had removed the cover and looked at the capacitors with three of them bulging. I explained I had posted here for some answers and that I'd researched the issue. They told me all about the problems they had with this year and the capacitor issues were only covered for a three year period (I happened to be six months late) They then proceeded to tell me that it would cost me $900.00 to fix. I had to take a deep breath and keep my composure after that one.
My biggest complaint is they had problems with the machines logic board capacitors, but never told us it may become an issue. No letter or even the courtesy of telling us when it was serviced. I own a brand new 20" Imac, the 2005 Imac 20" (problem child), and around 10 other Imac's dating back to 2003, 4 Ipod Touch's, and 4 Iphones. Needless to say I have invested a large sum of money in Apple products. These are the only machines I've ever had since I can remember and I'll always support Apple products. It just really ****** me off when they had my machine in for power supply repairs a couple times and never said a thing to us about possible problems down the road. Now they want me to sack up $900.00 for repairs when I can get a new one for around $1200.00.
I know that these issues arise in every kind of industry. I deal with them all the time, but if I know there's a flaw that will kick my rear end down the road, I''l head it off as fast as I can to avoid angry customers. I also don't have the volume Apple has when it comes to sales, so my issues really have no validity, they have to cut it off somewhere. Is there any other route I can take to try and get this $2600.00 computer fixed without kicking my rear?
By the way, thanks for answering questions, I do it on a couple boards in my industry. I know how people beat you up on certain issues without knowing your doing it for free. I know where your coming from and want to say Thank You for your time!!!

HH3 clock keeps resetting...

My Home Hub 3's clock keeps resetting back to jan 2003. I have to keep hanging it manually to the right time.
Does this mean the hub is resetting itself?

HH3 is a pretty manky piece of kit (to quote BT advert...our best home hub yet).
Mine managed a total reset in the 1st day...lost ALL my programming, passwords addresses etc.
The clock is permanently an hour slow if you let it get it's time from ANY time server, and if you set it manually any reset or power glitch puts the clock back to 1st Jan 2003.
And why oh why make a router with 3 100Mb ports and 1 GigE port, couldn't they (BT) have stretched the budget a bit and make it all GigE ports.
As for the wifi, it's supposed to select the clearest channel, mine insists on sticking with the same channels as my neighbours.
I'm dreading what will happen tomorrow when OR engineer comes to enable Infinity2, what will he managed to screwup?

My Apple TV2 keeps resetting when watching NETFLIX. This started about one week ago. I can watch fine from my MAC. Both are hardwired to my Aiport network..

Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,
M.

RV320 router keeps restarting (probably crashing)

Since we have installed the router with very simple configuration a few weeks ago, the router keeps rebooting at random interval, usually twice or more a day. We tried hard reseting it, and I also found a new firmware to which I upgraded the router a few days ago (from 1.1.0.09 to 1.1.1.06), but it still does the same thing.
I have logging turned on, but the only relevant messages I see in the logs are those when it already restarts (rv320 : System is up). So I don't know how or why it crashes.
The only features we use are Site-to-site IPSEC VPN termination and DHCP server. It is in gateway mode, so firewall and NAT is active. But I turned off or unconfigured basically everything else.
What could I do to have this solved?
Is there any way to extract more information, probably some kind of trace or crashdump, or debug logs from the router?

We have just replaced the router with the same type.
Uploaded same firmware, same config.
The router still keeps on rebooting!
In the system log there is nothing about why it is rebooting, I only see "System is up" message.
However I've just noticed that in the Incoming Log Table I have these messages, which I don't really understand:

The internet connection is a 120Mbps/25Mbps leased line. I know that some users have torrent running, even though it is forbidden.
Is it possible that this "high performance" router still has the good old problem of open connections count limit, so because of a lot of half open and established connections caused by torrent make the router deplete its resources and thus reboots?
Rebooting happens more often during working hours, this might indicate that it could be related to resource usage.
What is the theoretical connection count this router should be able to handle?
Do any of you have similar problems?

FIOS Router keeps freezing up - even replacement router does it too!

Hi all,
I've had FIOS for a month or two. Switched over from Comcast which I was on for probably 8 years.
I have the Actiontec Router. It keeps freezing up on me daily, if not several times per day. Wireless internet is gone, wired connections are gone and I can't even ping the router. If I try to type http://192.168.1.1 in my browser, it doesn't even pull up the login screen. If I try to run the FIOS Connection Wizard it gets up to the point where it says it can't login to the router and it keeps asking me for the admin username and password.
A simple reboot of the router brings things back online for a while but this is not a solution. Though one time I had to do a hard reset in order to get thing back online.
I'm running all default settings, DHCP etc.   The only thing I changed was the wireless encryption which I set to WPA2 with AES.
I have probably 5 wireless devices (2 laptops, Zune, Iphone, Tivo) and wired into the router is my Dell XPS PC, my HP Media Smart Server (Windows Home Server), a line into my homes wired ethernet jack, and a powerline networking device which connects to my Xbox 360 on the other end.   All of this worked fine on my Comcast system along with a Linksys router for wireless.
Also i'm frequently getting disconnected briefly from Xbox Live gaming sessions - I'll get kicked out of the matchmaking room in Call of Duty for example.
I did a chat support session with FIOS support last week and they shipped me a new router. I connected the router a couple days ago and I'm still having the same issue.
I'm going to talk to tech support again but I wanted to post here for advice as well.
Thanks,
Jason

There have been many complaints about the small NAT table in the Actiontec router causing issues with Peer to peer networking which is used heavily in gaming. One thing you could try is seeing if there is a network setting in the game that limits the simultaneous permitted connections. If you set that down to a reasonable amout the router will stop locking up. Or have the ONT switched from COAX to Ethernet and use your own router with the actiontec piggy backed on to it for TV only. If you do this you will loose remote access to the TV STBs from the web. There are many ways to configure your own router if you wish to go this route.
It could also be one of your devices connecting to the router. You could unplug them one at a time and see if the router stops locking up.
If you do a search using the search feature at the top of this forums page, and seach for Small NAT, you will find many posting including this one.

Router keeps rebooting every few moments

I have a WRTP54G router and this morning when I tried to connect to the 'net, I discovered that the router keeps rebooting itself. It barely gets through the process before it dumps and starts all over again, making getting online impossible. I use the power adapter that came with the router and it's plugged into the wall directly. I have no idea what this thing is doing or why. Anyone familiar with this problem? Suggestions?

Ok Everyone I would like to suggest to check your power supply. I have the same router and I have had to factory default it several times because of my provider pushing firmware to it and messing things up! This time after several resets to bring my router back to default it seems my power supply totally burned out due to power surge trying to start and restart my router so now it will not even boot my router even up to the dreaded flashing power LED. I received an exchange router from them to replace my WRTP54G but is is not the same device. They sent me a device they currently use for new customers and it has many issue if power is lost and the WIFII need to be set up after any power reset as well as WEP WPA and other setting not taking. I used the power supply that the replacement router came with and now I can view my setup page and config on the WRTP54G router. So check your power supply! I thought it crashed because of firmware only but after finally getting it to work with the new power supply it looks like it was multiple issues. I found another WRTP54G on EBAY and will wait to get it to use the power supply and have a spare router available and send back the junk router they sent me to replace my WRTP54G.

WRT 330N V1 keeps Resetting Cable Modem

I have the issue that the router (Wrt330N Version 1) keeps resetting my Modem connection. I have turned off the wireless portion of the router and it doesn't happen as often. I have tried to get my money back no luck, I have reinstalled the eprom update that tech support told me to do and still resetting. 10 times allready today that it has reset. Anybody have any suggestions other than throwing it away and buying something else! I have had several Linksys routers in the past and all have been great except this one. Yes I have the lastest eprom.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Connect your computer straight to the modem and check for a stable connection...If you have a stable connection then download the firmware from here
Follow these steps to upgrade the firmware on the device: -
Open an Internet Explorer browser page.In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1
Leave username blank & in password use admin in lower case...
Click on the 'Administration' tab- Then click on the 'Firmware Upgrade' sub tab- Here click on 'Browse' and browse the .bin firmware file and click on "Upgrade"...
Wait for few seconds until it shows that "Upgrade is successful" After the firmware upgrade, click on "Reboot" and you will be returned back to the same page OR it will say "Page cannot be displayed".
Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...
Then, unplug the power cable while holding down the reset button for another 30 Seconds...
Plug the power cable back in, and keep holding down the reset button for another 30 Seconds...
Release the reset button...Now re-configure your router...Hope it resolves your concern...

WRT54G Keeps Resetting - Help!

Just bought router a couple of weeks ago, and it keeps resetting. First I lose internet connectivity, and when I bring up the Linksys Advisor, it goes into the initial setup like I've never done it. It worked fine up until a few days ago. Any idea what is going on?

don't really rely on the easy link advisor sometimes it's not accurate. do you frequently have power outtage in the area?sometimes it affects the settings of the router.also try to configure the router properly if not familiar on how to do that try to get in touch with the phone support

Cable Box Keeps resetting only when computer is on.

My cable box keeps resetting when ever the computer is on. I get an LDR code on the box, resets, I have to press menu to get the cable back on and then the reset screen loads. It will continue to reset every 10 minutes or less until the computer is shut off. I can have other devices connected to the internet but it seems this is the only device that causes a problem. I have verizon fios. I have had a new box come to the house already and hooked it up, same problem occurs.
Anyone have any suggestions?
thanks.

I have never experienced that, with as many as 4 computers and a cellphone active on my FiOS network with three STBs also all active.
I wonder if perhaps you have that computer set to acquire a static IP Address from the FiOS router with an address of 192.168.1.1xx and that conflicts with the IP address used by the STB? The FiOS STBs by default acquire IP addresses starting at 192.168.1.100 and going up from there, depending on how many STBs you have, and computers, cellphones, etc. by default get their addresses via DHCP starting at 192.168.1.1. You can log into the router and see the various devices it sees with their IP addresses, and look in your system to see what IP address it has.
Sorry, but that is the only thing I can think of.

Iphone now it says it needs to be activated and plugged into itunes. It wont let me do anything because it keeps resetting. Help please.

I cant coonect it to the computer because the iphone keeps resetting itself and the restore or activation cannot be completed. Do I just need to get a new iphone? I have a 3gs and dont want to get a new iphone. Also the iphones sim card wont work and I have tried to do a hard reset mutiple times.

Sounds like your phone was jailbroken. If it was, you will need to get another phone. That phone is permanently disabled.
