[QUOTE="lovinthetelly, post: 1083440, member: 376218"] Hmm- a tricky one! My only suggestions would be: 1) are there any magnets nearby? Not surprisingly, I've had trouble with routers resetting when large magnets/devices with magnetic materials were nearby. 2) could the incoming WAN line to the modem be at fault? I've had cases where power surges on phone lines have knocked out broadband connections and caused router restarts. These surges were either caused by incoming/outgoing telephone calls, or in another case, a very old microfilter. I would have thought your RF scan would have detected this, though. Might be worth putting the router in a large metal box/makeshift faraday cage, to confirm RF is definitely not the cause. [/QUOTE]
