I see a lot of threads on this specific router so I decided to create an Owner's Thread.
My experience with this router:
I use it with my 8ta dongle (Hauwei e173) and my connection to the internet dies every 2 - 4 hours.
I followed the advice from DaBump and it seemed to work for a while. The next day I unplugged my dongle, plugged it back in and now I am experiencing the same issues as before.
I have to restart my router every now and then to get it to connect to the internet.

Someone told me that the issue is related to the dongle that heats up to the point where it just switches off.

Hi Guys.
Ok, so I managed to solve the problem. Not sure if its a bug in the firmware or interference, but I'd like to share the resolution here. I dropped the bandwidth megahertz of the wifi component to 20MHz instead of the default 40MHz. I've not had a disconnect for over two days now. So follow the steps:
1. Log into the administration portal using your browser.
2. Click on the 'Advanced' tab at the top.
3. Click on the 'Advanced Settings' under the 'Wireless Settings' portion.
4. Select '20MHz in both bands' from the dropdown list options next to the 'Bandwidth' item.
5. Save the settings and restart the router.
Like I said, this worked for me. Not sure if it's a bug / interferece, but with this settings, I've had successful results!
