well i leave my computer on connected to my router all the time. (used for msn and downloading torrents.. ) after a few hrs or days, it seems like all the pages i check start to slow down when they load or i get a "TIMED OUT" message and have to refresh a few times before the page can load.
at 1st, i thought it was my torrents(Utorrent) slowing me down so i checked and sometimes, they're only taking 10k/s or less and my pages are still slow. Although msn keeps going.
i know my cable internet(unlimited) sometimes slows down at peektimes but never like this so i figured it might be my modem but it's not... i found the problem: when i start seeing slow pages, or time outs, i just unplug the router and plug it back. then it's like normal for a few days or so...
And i know it's my router because when i use the 192.168.1.1 page, i get a timeout too!
btw: i'm downstairs plugged in the router through an ethernet cable. and it's almost never used for the wireless.
after the update in firmware, i thought it fixed it but it happened again this week.
