- Dlink di-784 freezing / lights stuck on
- Posted by markm75c@msn.com on May 19th, 2005
Has anyone else run into this.. I dont have any wireless cards in my 2
pcs.. they are both hard wired into the router. I have the g band on
wireless.. disabled, while I just use the A band for a wireless gaming
adapter.
At random times the whole router freezes up.. the lights become stuck
in the solid mode. The only thing that fixes it, is to reboot the
router, only to fail a few hours later.
This is the second router I have bought, the first one did the same
thing, so I had it replaced. I've tried reloading my configuration
settins, this didnt seem to matter either.
Thanks

Make sure that there is plenty of room between the router and everything
else. Do not stack the cable or dsl modem on top of or underneath the
router, keep them seperate. The router needs plenty of room to breathe.

Actually, I think the problem may be neighbors using wireless.. though
the only SSIDS i can see our wireless G (I am/was using wireless A).
It could be that someone has their SSID hidden and has recently gotten
and using the A band I guess.
Weird part is.. since I switched back to channel 6 (wireless turbo G),
the same port I can clearly see a neighbor or two definitely using, I
have not had the router lockup (3 days now), whereas with the A, it was
locking up nearly every day.
I'm still convinced it must be a wireless clash though.
