Thanks for you response!
partach1, have you looked into this?
Yes did a lot of setting changes including DNS relay, no help
[INFO] Fri Dec 02 10:05:50 2005 DNS Relay ALG rejected UDP packet from 192.168.0.150:1381 to 67.21.13.6:53
This then happens every second in the log (after going bananas; first couple of days of router operation is n.p. and you do not see these messages) making the log full pretty fast...
Can you look at the eventvwr.msc (assumes XP) and take a look and see if you have any error messages regarding DNS registration failures? This is a weak area of knowledge for me, technically, but I do know that DNS queries typically occur a lot faster than one every 10-15 minutes or so. But 10-15 minutes sounds like the right interval for DNS Registration retries.
Have different clients: mostly Vista, Lunix, sometimes XP (not often) but all clients suffer from not having internet when the router goes bananas

Still believe it is an issue inside the router. it has different instability sympthoms like not broadcasting a wifi network anymore. (also after a couple of days of operation). This new sympthom has poped up with 1.32NAb2. so i reboot the router now because of no wifi network and not because I see the DNS ALG info messages....
Hope that helps -- or at least gives us a lead ...[/color]
As stated i have done a lot of things with settings and all, it is somewhere in the firmware of the router (I am sure.) Other routers (sitecom N300, WRT54G all work brilliantly. but not fast enough
)
Can send a log if that might help....

see different clients!!
Btw just saw something interesting. I tried to log in with Chrome but each time i type the correct password it brings me back to the same login screen (so i can log in until doomsday).
I used another browser (firefox) and that one was able to log in.
But have just switched over to Chrome so this does not mean it contributes to the problems I am having for four months...
