Belkin Router Question

[Antithesis]

Another message that may be a bit off topic...

.... but I have a Belkin wireless cable/dsl router for my dsl connection.
It seems like every morning it has to be rebooted for the connection to
come alive again. Is it going to sleep or something? Does anybody have
this router or know where I can stop it from having to be rebooted?

Also, something else a little weird... sometimes at night when I get home
from work, Internet Explorer is the only thing that will communicate via
the network. I normally surf using Mozilla, but things will not load up in
that, AND Outlook Express will not send/receive. Rebooting the router does
not solve this issue, I have to reboot my machine. Any ideas??

Thanks again,
Jesse

It sounds like your ISP may be timing out your connection when it sits
unused.
