Generic title, I know sorry.
For a while now I've noticed that my router stops functioning. At first I thought it was only DNS as I can continue to browse sites/applications that are open. I switched to Google DNS to hopefully fix that. What I didn't realize is that I can't even access the router via IP on my network when this issue happens. I can ping the router though. A router reboot "solves" the issue but this is nothing short of frustrating as my modem is not in an easily accessable spot.
Has anyone experienced anythign like this. I'd like to just have my router act as the modem and nothing more so that I can use a good router. I don't have fios TV so the negatives of doing so are not a problem
