Routine Lockups

Does anybody else have the issue of having to reboot this device every 3-4 days. I'll normally figure out I have to when I'm unable to connect to the AP. You can see the SSID, but can't connect to it for some reason. A reboot seems to fix it. My guess is that the buffers are filling up and aren't being emptied properly.

Very peculiar problem fanclerks. My DGL-4300 has always been very stable. I connect about 5 devices to it wirelessly at any given time and use Comcast for internet, FWIW. The only time it reboots is after a power failure, which is rare.

Thanks for the replies SystemJinx and bigtech; I do try to keep it updated to the latest and greatest firmware that's out there. I think the problem is the sheer number of connections that I push through the device. It used to happen with wired connections too. It always seems to happen after running torrents for a bit.
