    I have had it with this router. It seemed to work fine after reinstalling the firmware. After about a week I am getting disconnects from the router to the modem. I was blaming comcast and it may well be but they say no. It just loses internet and then right back connected. Today I lose the...

    asus 3100 going bad, whats a good replacement for less than $200

    I noticed something else, every few seconds the router was checking for a firmware update. I followed your suggestion, reset it and flashed with newest merlin. Seems to be working again. Will watch it and see if I get the same problems again. Thank you all very much for your help and...

    asus 3100 going bad, whats a good replacement for less than $200

    a while back it locked up and only a full reset and flash of original bios fixed it. Now about every 2 or 3 minutes it looses connection on all ports, it last about 4 or 5 seconds. I switched to an old netgear and no problems so it must be the router. I guess its time to find a replacement.

    asus 3100 is acting weird

    I dl the rescue.exe and the latest asus software. and managed to recover the modem but it was a task to get it to connect to the internet. After much trying I finally got it back up and running. Do you think this is just something that happens or is this a sign or some bigger problems down the road?

    not sure why but devices are loosing connection and can't get it back

    I replaced the router with an OLD Netgear N600 router and after 20 hours nothing has lost connect. I am going to keep testing but right now its either the router or the firmware on the Asus that is having problems.

    not sure why but devices are loosing connection and can't get it back

    I should have stated this is an ac3100 router. The roku goes thru a switch (trendnet teg /s8) along with the media center before going to the router. The firestick is using the 5g wi fi network to the router OR thru a tp-link extender. It doesn't seem to matter. What I do not understand that...

    not sure why but devices are loosing connection and can't get it back

    I can not get them to reconnect to the network, the roku is plugged into the router port 3 and it has to be reset to get it to connect to the network. I have taken the roku and the firestick and reinstalled the software and used there settings to do a factory restore and it made no difference.

    not sure why but devices are loosing connection and can't get it back

    anywhere from 8 hrs to a day after connecting to the network the roku will disappear from the client list. Going to the Roku and its off the network, in the roku settings trying to reconnect to the network does nothing. Only by power reboot will it reconnect to the network. I thought it was...

    do the newer routers still have need for DDWRT

    I am going to buy a new router and always used tomato or dd-wrt in the past. It seems that the new routers are locked down and can not be flashed any more. This is what I have read on the dd-wrt site. I think the main thing I got from it anyway was total usage and a few other things. Is it...
