Most DSL/Cable modems have a web interface built into them where you
can view status, diagnostics and most importantly logs. I think if you
can google your modem model and figure out how to access this, it
might provide some useful information. (Older modems might have a
telnet interface rather than web)
I can access it with Seamonkey. I had to do that to get it to work at all.
The router and the modem were both trying to get 192.168.1.1 and the fight
was on. Same problem I ran into once before. Anyway.
Hmm, maybe it could be an IP address conflict if one or both of them
keep trying to go back to using the same address. I had that problem
at work where a printer and a computer both had been assigned the same
IP and would "randomly" go offline or have connectivity issues for no
apparent reason, until we finally realized what was going on and
changed the IP to something else.
Well so far it has been working. Maybe it got things worked out and
DHCP is working it out. Maybe it needed a little training time. lol
Both modem and router are set to use DHCP. I should know when I get
some sleep next time. I'm not sure when that will be tho.
