Why does it disconnect and give me new IP address every 2-3 hours or so... I am using a linksys 802.11B router.....

um, do you have the dhcp period set to 2-3 hours? :P

How would I change that.?

Maybe its overheating inside and need alittle more ventalation/airflow. Is the firmware uptodate?

Yeah make sure your router and boxes have all static ip addresses. There should be a setting somewhere, just assign them all manually. 192.168.x.x styles

Linksys routers are notoriously bad, which is a shame 'cos their other hardware is quite good.


There are dedicated sites out there that write unofficial firmware. I think it's called WRT or HyperWRT - along those lines. Basically it troubleshoots issues that Linksys have rejected.

At least its not a belkin...
