Hi, I have a Actiontec C1000A modem-router combination on a CentruyLink high speed dsl. I had no problems at first but about a month ago I started getting "timed out" problems on wifi, where the connection will drop for a few seconds. Laptops (Windows 7) and cellphone (android) all have the problem, which was determined through ping testing 192.168.0.1. I don't have any problem with a wired connection. So far I have:
Factory Reset the the modem.
Tried uncommon wifi channels
Update firmware on modem and network card
Change encryption type
Finally I called CenturyLink and they are sending me a replacement modem. However, since this wasn't initially a problem I'm a little worried it will come back, even with a replacement modem. Any suggestions???
