For the past year or so I’ve been having strange issue’s on my network at home, every now and again nothing will connect to the wireless connection at all.
I’ve done everything to try and find the issue, replaced a Netgear DG834G with a DG834N, run the BT Home Hub that came with my connection, made sure all routers have the latest firmware, moved the router, stopped certain computers connecting but nothing worked.
I came across this page on the Netgear forums http://forum1.netgear.com/showthread.php?t=30461 which is exactly the problem I get and seems to point towards the iPhone, but no fix.
I noticed that I was getting errors on my computers saying another device is using the same IP address, could the iPhone be taking an IP address that is already in use? is this possible?
Well in the end I gave up, bought a Zyxel and all my problems have now gone away, goodbye Netgear and BT Home Hub, hello working network.
