Access to modem/router
Posted by Mike on June 26th, 2008


I have a speedtouch 780WL and a speedtouch 585 and both work fine except I
cannot access them after either has been used for a few hours which means I
cannot switch the wireless network on/off.
If I reboot the modem then it is fine for a few hours and the same happens
whichever unit I try.
One of my PC's is running 24/7 and uploads a 20kb file every 30 seconds and
another file every 120 seconds. Both computers on win XP Pro with kaspersky
antivirus and windows firewall set to default. Can always browse ok.

Anybody have any ideas?

TIA - Mick

Second that. I've got a Be branded 780WL that seems to be somewhat
sensitive to heat.

My 585 got very hot. It's now standing on a couple of wooden blocks
which lift it an inch or so off the desk - no problems now.
