Dodgy modem?

event wrote:

last week i bought a wireless ethernet router, its a belkin

works grand, wireless too

however, iv noticed in last few days ill be browsing away and suddenly ill be offline

when i look at the modem, the power and modem light have both turned orange(usually green) and the wireless, lan and internet lights are gone out or ery faint!

is it broken, should i take it back?

Event, Had/have similar problems with the same Belkin router, seems to lose the connected status every time I reboot it (not very often) then it requires me to plug into the modem to get it to connect again (even though the modem says its connected) plug the router back into the modem and it picks up the signal again, I have the mac address of my lan card cloned to the AP in the router so the modem thinks its the one and same. Overall disappointed with the Belkin (all the wireless gear is HiSpeed version) and would go doen the Linksys route if was asked to recommend one or if I was starting again as by all acc's they are the biz.
