Does the phone ring just before it goes down? Do your kids or spouse seem to be talking to themselves till you realize they are on the phone? I know, kinda weird. But my problem of disconnection was my daughters 2.4mhz phone. She start yackin, and my internet went packin!! if you have a 2.4mhz phone in the house, that could be a problem. At least one of many, got rid of daughters 2.4 and replaced it with a 5.8 and the problem of disconnecting dissapeared.

anthony,

from what the original poster said on that thread, he gets a message indicating his wireless network has become unavailable- is that the same thing you get? I never get that message, I'll just be browsing the web and all of a sudden I get a server not found error on the browser. The Intel PRO wireless software does not report any problems- and will still say excellent singal strength, but nothing loads. If I try pinging my gateway or anything on my local network, it gets timed out. I have to disable my wireless then re-enable it and hopefully I have my Internet connection again.

Check out my response to another user experiencing the same problem. http://forums.us.dell.com/supportforums/board/message?board.id=si_wireless&message.id=7980

I know it's not exactly for the mottorola router however I've heard of connectivity drops from Netgear, Linksys, Dlink. They only common factor is the centrino solution.

Sometimes I receive the message that the wireless connection is unavailable other times I'm connected to the router however pages would not load. Ever since I've removed the WPA patch from Windows update and also allowed the Proset application to manage my connections instead of Wireless Zero Configuration I have not had connectivity issues.

Have you tried investigating on Motorola's site for a possible fix, maybe a firmware upgrade for your router. Also, is there a way that you can test your connection with another machine using a different adapter such as a PCMCIA WiFi card or USB. If you try another card and it works, I would try getting either the card replaced or maybe just swapping out the router.  Here's a few more tips for troubleshooting router performance. 

1) Try changing the channel on the router, as there may be some interference from an in home source (microwave, baby monitors, cordless phones) or even somebody else's access point.

2) If the channel does not work try phsically placing the router higher in it's physical location this will help improve your RF signal.

3) If connection is still dropping I would try lowering your encryption from 128 to 64 just to see what happens. I have dropped my router to 64 bit encryption, setup no broadcasting, and also have an ACL enabled.

4) Lastly try moving the router to a different part of the house for testing. Note: it does not need to have an internet connection, your computer will still receive an IP. This is just to troubleshoot the immediate location of the router.

Anyway I hope this helps out.

Same problems with my dell 1300 and true mobile router. I get disconnected every now and then. Using 128 Wep. windows xp.

Have tried newest patch ,, (without patch the wep thing did not even work :-)

The router is about 4 meters from my computer :-) Mayebee a cable would be better....
