| Netgear WGT624 losing connection
Hi.
I've had this wirless router for around 7 months now and i still run accross a problem when accessing some websites. For example when i try to look at different pages at www.pkeuro.com the router will basically lose the net connection. I have to unplug the router and power it back up and it works fine again.
I was wondering if anyone knows a way to tackle this problem that seems to occur with websites the router has to 'think hard' when connecting |

| I think the reason isn't which website u open.....
The reason is Netgear WGT624 over heat........if u use 108Mbps(SuperG Mode).......
and now I use 54Mbps(b mode) everything is OK......
but it still auto-reboot 4- days.........
some guys did the heat test..........

Hi,
Forgive any cross post on my part. That Heat Test item in the last post is VERY important to resolutions with the routere's drops/resets !!!!!
Now a couple days after removing the "endCaps" on my router, my drops/.resets seem to have stopped. I chose this method initially because my router is already in the vertical position so removing both endcaps (and the rubber crossmember support part) has opened up the air flow considerably !
I also moved my cable modem away from the router so any heat it may have given off would not be drawn into the router.
I would rather not have to mod the router case to mount a fan and so far It seems like I won't have to.
