Recently I purchased a Buffalo WZR-HP-G300NH to replace an elderly (and failing) Linksys WRT54G. Aside from dealing with the Comcast compatibility quirks all has gone fairly well except for one issue.
The only problem is with my neighbor. For several years I have shared my broadband connection with him and he utilizes a Linksys WRE54G range extender to boost the signal on his end. This setup worked great for years, but with the new Buffalo router we are having frequent connection issues with the neighbors wireless connection. What tends to happen is that he can get online with no problems part of the day, and then later in the day he has no internet access. During these outages his laptop is able to reach the router (confirmed via accessing the router config screen from the laptop).
Yesterday when he lost internet connectivity I had him unplug the range extender, come over to my house, reboot his laptop and try to connect directly to the router - but he was still unable to access outside the router.
Any suggestions for getting this worked out are appreciated.
