[gentoo-user] Linksys router BEFSR41 loosing internet

[Dale]

Hi,

I bought this router the other day.  I notice something that is a little 
weird.  When I first wake up and try to check my email, the internet is 
dead.  The light on my DSL modem is red and Seamonkey can't check my 
email or load a webpage.  If I unplug the router then plug it back up, 
it works fine.  It seems that after a while the router cuts off the 
internet for some reason.

I need the internet to stay alive even when I am asleep.  I run folding 
and it sends data without asking me and some other stuff is running as 
well.  I have looked in the settings of the router but I don't see 
anything that will change this.  Am I missing something?  Is this 
normal?  I used a router once before and I don't remember this being a 
issue.

I also updated the firmware and it still does it.  Feature?  Wrong 
setting?  Router broke?
