WIFI Modem Internet Keeps Dropping Connection

[springz]

Hi,

Currently when the Hitron modem is configured in bridge mode it has a lovely tendency to shut down all the ethernet ports from time to time which makes for a completely unreliable experience. The only way to get the internet working again is to reboot the modem. This has happened for the last week everyday and it is very annoying. Can someone please assist with this. I was lookign at otehr posts and saw that there is modem firmware update? Please let me know how to resolve this issue?

Hey @springz! 

When your modem is in bridge mode, it gives the connection to a third party router of your choice. With this mode, only the first internet port should be working. 

We don't offer an update but we are running a new firmware trial at the moment. If you'd like to be part of it you can send us a PM here. If you prefer you can let me know here and I'll send you one. 

Hope that helps

The only way I could fix that was setting up my notebook to G only.

Check this link and change you PC/Notebook to 02 - 11g
