For a couple weeks now I have been having devices lose internet/network connection. It occurs with both wireless devices and the desktop that is wired. Restarting the router fixes the problem.
The router is a Linksys WRT300n and there are a number of devices that connect via wireless (a couple laptops, iphones, ipads, kindle, android phones etc.).
The only other thing of note is Directv recently installed one of their genie DVRs with wireless clients. To make the wireless clients work they have to have a wireless video bridge. It is a separate router that only connects the genie clients (I'm sure its accessible to direct but I don't have any log in information) to the main genie server. I tried to find specs on it but wasn't able to find out what wireless band it uses or anything like that. The directv genie connects to my regular router via wireless for ondemand/internet functions.
So is it just a coincidence the router happened to start dying at the same time they installed the new tv stuff or is there a possibility that the directv router is causeing interference with the linksys causing it to lose connection?
