Router constantly disconnecting, GF is getting mad, pls halp. :c

[20113551]

The router keeps getting disconnected.

It is a Belkin router - N600 Wireless Dual-band - N+ Modem-Router.

There are 2 mobile phones connected, and my PC which is using a direct connection through a chord.

I haven't had any issues before, however the past 3-4 days it's been disconnecting every hour. Almost like it's resetting.

Below is the security log from my router log-in.

Does PPPoE have anything to do with my issue?

Kind regards

Update it see if that helps

 

[smorizio]

looks like it failing...look at the date and time stamps...showing 1970 in the logs.

 

[Paul NZ]

I think it does show that on some of them. I think my old one did. But it worked fine

 

[20113551]

I've already scanned for an update and there isn't one needed. Thanks though.

 

[Paul NZ]

Go to the site and find it. Are you using N600 adapters to connect to it

 

[20113551]

N600 Adapters? Please explain? I'm not accessing this through a wireless card adapter.

 

[20113551]

looks like it failing...look at the date and time stamps...showing 1970 in the logs.

I never realized this. I've just fixed that up by changing the timezone to the correct area. However I don't know if this is really the issue. Only time will tell

 

[Paul NZ]

So its connected by ethernet . Try another cable then

So its connected by ethernet . Try another cable then

I'm afraid this didn't work - the router still disconnected itself. Thanks for the suggestion though.

 

[20113551]

Disconnected 3 times within the hour.

Or replace it. If you think the firmware is up to date. When you said you scanned for router updates. How?? Its not a windows update
