Router installed... power management problem?

What model is the Netgear router? Also, what manufacturer and model is the DSL modem?

netgear wgr 614 v2

modem westell wirespeed

Well, I talked to someone at staples and it seems there's a power management feature that needed to be disabled in the network card on  my computer. I'll see if it works tonite.

 

You may also want to check the idle timeout setting, this would be under basic settings from the setup menu of the router.

If you have checked the idle timeout, it should be set to 0 for never, and this is not the issue, you may want to update the firmware. Firmware updates include added enhancements and bug fixes. You can download the most recent firmware update here. The instructions are at the bottom of the page just above the download link.

Idle time is at 0.

Updated the firmware.

What else could it be?

running xp.

Just scanned entire system for trojan horse-went into safe mode and nothing was detecte

also, I have the wgr614v2 which has different download then the one you supplied the link to.i'm update firmware 2.04 instead.

If I don't go through the router, my connection stays up and running.

could something be wrong in my network setup?

I do setup but just don't stay connected.

thanks
