Why is dual wan router software losing connectivity?


I'm using Edimax dual wan router software to load balance of two broadband connections. I have WAN1 connected to a Zen Internet modem router, and WAN2 connected to Sky Broadband. From time to time PC’s on the LAN will lose connectivity to web sites. They can be working fine one minute, then suddenly cannot connect to web URL’s. When the problem happens they can sometimes ping the DNS server, and can access mail servers, but web pages are not found. If I disconnect either of the two WAN connections the problem goes away, and the PC can access web sites again. If I wait for a few minutes the problem also usually goes away. Does anyone have any idea what might be causing the above problems? Please help.

Hi this is a very common problem for dual wan router. Most of the people face this problem frequently but no needs to worry just try any or all of the suggestion which I am telling you, then you will not face any problem. Check for firmware updates from internet and if there is any update available update it. Change your channel to some another channel because it might happen that somebody is also using the same channel which you are using in your locality. So it will create a problem for you as well as for the other person also. Go to the hidden admin page and change setting according to the channel which you have selected now. If you don’t have hidden admin page don’t worry try to disable your snip. It will work then perfectly ok.
