Hello All,

Strange issue occuring with my Wifi connection to home router as it is the only connection that when connecting will shut down my BB and go through a lengthy reboot. Hot Spots Fine, office fine, home NOT!

Any advise BB gurus?

[monkeypaw]

What kind of router? My Verizon supplied router would reboot my phone or the router would reboot.

[John Clark]

My guess is you have an N router. The 8320 doesn't work well with N routers.

[DaHKGkid]

Yes its a new Nfiniti N router from Buffalo! Is there anything I can do? Could there be any upgrade coming to firmware or Software to fix?

[John Clark]

Not sure. 8320 & N routers don't get along.

Old faithful (Linksys WRT54G) is what I recommend.

[John Clark]

Actually the WRT54GS is a better router out of the box for UMA and is compatible with other firmwares like DD-WRT. If I ever replace my WRT54G, that's what I'm getting. The new versions of the WRT54G have issues with other firmwares and don't have the signal strength that the GS does.

[jeremyckitching]

I had heard that too. v4 or v5 WRT54G routers I have heard complaints about. I had the v3 WRT54G.

If I ever pick up a Wi-Fi enabled BB again (which I will) I will look in to the WRT54GS joint.

[John Clark]

Mine is a v1.0. I have the power turned up with DD-WRT. When it fries I'll get the GS.

Have the same problem with a Belkin Wireless G+ router.
