I use my Linksys G-router (model WRT54G) with my Macbook and when it's actually working, it's great. But in the last couple days I've been having to reset it at least 4 times a day (and before that it was about 3x a week) :mad: Does anyone know what the problem could be and how I could fix it? Or is this just normal? I've tried going to the linksys site but it's worthless....so I thought I'd try here.

I'd replace the router. My DLink has been running without a reset for roughly 2 years. I used to have a Linksys router which worked fine until I switched to Vonage 2 years ago, then it started hanging every few days. I replaced it with the DLink and haven't reset it since (except for a couple of power outages which took everything down).
 
actually no i havnt tried that...lol i feel dumb. well since im away visiting family right now I'll have to wait until sunday to try it out.
