Hi,

I have had this problem before, and found a solution but can't find it since.

I have a Linksys WAP/Router. Whenever I use FTP (Dreamweaver, SimpleFTP, Fetch) I can download a little bit of data and them my AirPort connection dies. Just stops. Then restarts it self.

I know part of the problem was adding a port trigger to the Linksys Router, I did this and I am still having the problem.

Can anyone shed some light on this for me?

Thanks

I have a linksys router, but have never had any problems with it. Have you tried updating the firmware?

Yes, I am on 1.45. My situation is that it worked just fine on friday morning, but then my router kept causing my cable modem to keep dropping it's connection so I reset to factory defaults the router and bang the cable modem stopped dropping but whatever settings I set before when I had this problem back in May were lost. Now I have tried setting port forwarding and adjusting my MTU, but to no avail.

Now when ever I ftp more than one file at a time, the router freezes and restarts. I lose my connection and my xfer...

UGH!
