Good day everyone.
I'm having problem with my buffalo WHR-G300N router:
When I connect with my laptop everything is fine for few minutes(from 2 to I don't know, 10 maybe) and then websites go down. Skype, Online games, p2p programs are working just fine except for any website. Any suggestions?
P.S. Websites go down for both computers, and only when I connect with my second one, when there's only main computer on, everything is fine.
Sorry for my bad english.
I think I have the same problem as Gadion. I can either use my laptop OR I can use my desktop, but I can't use both at the same time. As soon as the wireless is switched off on one, the other will work. And, like Gadion, everything worked prefectly for the first month or so.
I have changed passwords and everything worked for a while again. And then stopped. Again.
Any ideas?
Bump. I was kinda desperate with this problem and just left my router be, but then I bought a wlan supported mobile phone and when I connect to router with it, connection doesn't crash, but with my laptop I've still got that problem. So please, could someone tell what might be the problem and explain it step by step? Sorry for my bad english once again.
Are you running version 1.60? There is a version 1.64 for this router which help solve some of your problems.
Secondly, are you using WPA as your security option. Try WPA2 as SSID1 and play around with the multicast option like SSID2 and SSID3.
Hi Jotin,
Can you rationalize this for me a bit? What would the MTU size have to do with the problem - should the choice of MTU size be driven by some other criteria (like what your ISP uses?)
Struggling with similar issues but I don't like to debug randomly.

depending on the router config on the ISP side if their MTU settings are lower they will drop packets larger than the MTU they have set. it causes really random problems.
you will usually see this when running through some kind of vpn connection where encryption adds to the packet size.
its pretty easy to test there is no harm in trying.
