NetPlay Community / Re: MBCaster Mauve. Router restarts itself
« on: August 04, 2011, 07:34:50 AM »
I had the same problem with this router resetting over and over about once every minute when I added a port in Port Forwarding. I was pulling my hair out and thought it was a power supply or connection problem or even a stuck reset switch. Finding this post helped me discover that Port Forwarding was the problem.
That said, I think I found a fix. I was trying to forward one port, so let's say that was port 40000. I set the range from 40000 to 40000. However, since I have changed that to 39999 to 40001 I have now had a steady up time of the router for going on 7 hours now.
It seems that there must be a spread of multiple port numbers. I could be wrong, but this is the only variable I have changed since going from 2 minute up times to 7 hours.
