    My router (Sitecom DC-202 V5) disconnects me every hour once. Does anyone have the same problem? And do you know how to fix that? Please help me.

    My neatgear did that to. i think it might just get overloaded or something, but i just ended up going out and getting a new one. i dont really know why it did it.

    lol firmware basically tells your router what to do.

    Kinda like drivers for your computer hardware.

    Say for example your router was linksys

    you'd go to linksys.com and download there latest firmware, and it should have installation instructions.

    In some router options there might be an option to automatically update, have a look around.
