Every night my internet goes out. The solution is to unplug the router and plug it back in. Why is my router needing me to do this? Sometimes I have to reset my modem and sometimes my expander. Recently its been only the router that needs reset. Its a Cisco/Linksys

Do you have the channel selection on auto if so try selecting a channel manually may want to download iStumbler to help with channel selection.

My Linksys router needs to be routinely rebooted to get it's wireless connection up..the hard-wired connections seem to stay..make sure that you are running the latest firmware version for that router..

What is your "expander"? Are you using a range extender of some sort?

Maybe the problem is with your ISP (Internet Service Provider)...somewhere at the street level...and/or if you have a cable modem supplied by your ISP...maybe you need a replacement.

Keep drinks and other liquids away from your expensive electronics!
