Hi

I use a D-Link DSL-2740B with BT broadband in the UK. I use WPA encryption on my home network. For web browsing I do not get a problem but when I use internet radio I often lose the connection with my modem router and then need to reset the modem so that my N810 can see it

Anyone got any recommendations?

I don't know the most reliable router, but most seem to be reliable. My home router is a D-Link also, but a DI-614. I don't have any trouble with it. Of course my setup is going to be different from you. I only use WEP. Have you checked for a firmware update with D-link? You may have older firmware with bugs.

Going to the Dlink web site found . . . nothing . . . ok, go to Dlink UK web site. That turns up the following:

2.51b181
DSL-2740B - NO-NAT support - Wireless MAC Filtering - SNMP - QoS
30/04/2008

2.24
DSL-2740B - improved WPA/WPA2 wireless performance - remote management no longer limited to port 80 - fixed DMZ issues - fix
13/04/2007

If your firmware is older that 2.24, it looks like there are WPA problems that you could eliminate with an update.

yep, I have the latest firmware. Note that I only get disconnection problems when listening to internet radio.
