I have the Dlink DSL-904 package (DSL-G604T and DWL-G122) running on
Dell Dimension 8250 with windows xp. After about three days of running
the router looses connection with the Internet and I need to go into the
admin utility and restart the system. I have taken to restarting the
system on a daily basis now but it is rather annoying. Does anyone know
what might be wrong? Thanks

When its working, at a command prompt do an ipconfig /all, record the
info.
When its broke, at a command prompt type in ipconfig /all. Compare the
2
and respond with your findings.

Well there is no difference, so it looks like the router is talking ok
to you.
Have you checked for any firmware updates for your router?
