Exclamation My Router Keeps cuttin me off!!! HELP

:mad: My router is bein the biggest pain ever recently, for some reason, it keeps disconnecting all the PC's that are attached to it.
My router is a Belkin 4 port Wired, router thing, lol.
It only seems to disconnect when my PC is on aswell so i'm not sure whether it is the router or my PC.
To make it a bit clearer:
I'm just browsing the internet:
While i'm doing this the yellow WAN light is on and flashing
and so is the green connect light only that doesn't flash.
You can see the 1 port light on aswelll as that is the port my PC is plugged into.
but then for no real reason (that i can see) My PC and if my dad is on his PC, are disconnected.
The Wan light goes off, the two port lights go off and all thats left is the power light and it stays like that.
My Card is built into the motherboard and is:
NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller
With all the latest drivers
and so does my G-card
and motherboard.
My dad keeps blaming me when it turns off, but i have done NOTHING lol. Please help me fix this
Oh and i disabled its internal Firewall so i could play my games through it....could that be the problem?
Neway i hope someone can help me i would reeeeallllly appreciate it. Thank you

Try resetting the router, and change the port your computer is plugged into.

You should try replacing the cables before you get a new router. The one from the modem to the router.

Maybe you could try updating the firmware on the router.

Hi

Get rid of that crappy router and do the right thing.

Buy a Cisco or Linksys router!
