Hi everyone

Sorry this isn't directly related to Windows 7 but just wondered if anyone else has this problem.
I have recently got a new N Wireless Router (Belkin N600DB).

I had no problem setting it up and it connects to the internet perfectly.

The only annoying thing that happens, once in a while it loses internet connectivity (both Wireless and Ethernet connections) and then the connection altogether randomly. This lasts only for about 30 seconds to a minute and then gains internet connectivity again. Its almost like the router restarted unexpectedly?

I have noticed that this happens usually when more than 5 devices are connected and can have a gap of about 30 minutes before it happens again, although it is not always continuous. So it usually occurs about 3 times a day.

I know that this is very unlikely to be a problem with my ISP becuase my previous G Wireless Router had no drop out problems as mentioned above.

I think it might be either a minor bug in the firmware or something hasn't been configured correctly. I checked and I can confirm that I have the latest firmware version from Belkin.

Any ideas? :confused:
I have access to the router webpage so I can provide any information that might be useful.
