First off, i've never had a router before and i'm still figuring out how this thing works. I used to have my PC connected directly to the DSL modem and my PC acting as the internet host, that is, until my family started getting wifi (House just got renovated and they don't want any more holes drilled) and i really had to get a wifi router.
It's a Linksys WRT54G v7 and i've had it for a day. The thing is, the setup page (192.168.1.1) stalls even tho the router is right next to me. At first it opens immediately, then a while ago i wanted to check some settings and now the setup is taking forever to load, if it loads at all. I tried resetting my computer and it's still slow. Finally i pressed the reset button at the back, that seemed to fix it, and the setup page now loads instantly.
The longest the router has only been on is about half a day before i reset it. Am i missing something? Did i do something that made it slow down? I just set the DSL password and the Wifi passkey, everything else is at default.
