It happened again. My WAP lets me connect for about 15 minutes and then all of a sudden goes away. I try rebooting, resetting, and everything else but still no dice. I can't believe I spent another 3 hours on this last night. Time for a new Router/WAP.
Ideally, I'd like a WAP and Router all in one. The WAP would have to support WEP or some other authentication/encryption protocol since I live in a high density area. The router would have to support DHCP, which I think most do. Does anybody have any recommendations?

I just bought a linksys wireless-g broadband router with "speed booster".
I had a netgear - but it stopped working two weeks ago for no reason.
I had a belkin pre-n router, but it won't let me VPN in when I'm wireless (but if I plug into the router directly I can). It is my backup device now.
the linksys is working fine (very nicely in fact) but I found the setup of it to be by far the hardest of all three (even though it was the third one I configured!). Not intuitive.
I've got a Belkin Wireless ADSL Router and it's totally easy to use.
I would suggest using mac address access instead of WEP encryption. WEP encrypts all data before it send or receiveds and makes things slower. Most newer routers/WAP have this feature.
