If you can borrow another router for a test, do that. I never had much
luck with longevity on a Linksys however, and six months was my longest

routers and both failed in the manner you described.

When they failed, was it permanent? Mine worked on two separate
occasions. Unfortunately, I know of no-one with a router I can try. What
router did you settle on? Does it have upgradeable firmware?

Yes, they would come back for a few minutes after unplugging and re-plugging
for a few days sometimes but got progressively worse til finally wouldn't
come back at all. I have an Actiontec PK 5000 now and yes the firmware is
upgradeable. It is a modem, router and wifi point all in one unit.
