I am on DSL and when I reboot the modem, I also have to disconnect the wireless router as well as turn off all computers attached. I then have to turn the DSL back on and let stand for 5 minutes. I then reconnect the wireless router letting it stand for 5 minutes, then turn on the computers and all works well every time unless the modem is broken.
