Hello..I have been noticing this since the day I started using the USB port but the problem now seems to be more frequent than it used to be then.. So here it is : After switching the router on, PC and net connection works normal before components like System Scheduler, Windows Media Player, Firefox, IE, etc. stop responding. Things return to normalcy after I remove the USB cable from its socket. Reconnecting the cable causes the hang to occur again but after some random interval of time.. Because the scheduler stops working, the auto-reboot script and Bitcomet fail to execute after midnight. Any solution to this problem ?? Also, I currently use LAN port for my VOIP phone. I wouldn't like to swap it's connection between the phone and the desktop every now and then. So don't advise me to switch over to LAN port :cool:..Thanks in advance..____________Regards,Prasanna

- Please confirm with your Internet Provider the availability
of ADSL2/2+ services in your area.
- Upgrading the modem/router to the ADSL2/2+ firmware is not
reversible without returning the product to D-Link Australia
Para two : Apart from DSL502T, can you give the Wi-fi router model number , to check any spare LAN ports are available.

^^^Agreed If you are having problems with USB use LAN connection... unless you dont have a LAN port... I find the LAN connection better than the USB, fits in perfectly and doesnt loosen up after sometime....More importantly you dont have to install extra drivers for the ADSL modemIn your case it could be the driver issue as well.... so better remove the issue with LAN you dont even need he drivers which is reqd for USB
