My router connection drops periodically.

My internet connection drops randomly (both wireless and cable connection). Once it drops, I can reconnect it again through powering off my router then powering it on again. If I did not power my router off and then on, I only could see my network account but cound not connect to it.

Can anyone help me solve this problem?

Thanks a lot

First thing you could try is updating your firmware for each device.

But for your router, don't update firmware over a wireless connection, it is known to sometimes cause damage sometimes. Always use hardwire (Ethernet) for updating.
