WNR614 N300 disconnects while lights stay on
I have been using WNR614 N300 wirless router for a few months now. My laptop gets disconnected from internet once or twice a day, even though the router's green lights indicating wireless transmission continue to stay on. The laptop stays connected to the wireless network, but not to the internet. Switching off and restarting the router resolves the issue.
Please clarify why the router keeps disconnecting and how it can be resolved.

It maybe due to interference.
Try to change channel on the router.
See page 34 of the manual on how to change the channel.

Thanks Elaine. Tried the channel change. It shows some improvement and the disconnects are much less frequent. But the connection seems unstable at times. Anyway, thanks for your input!
You're welcome.
You may try to relocate the router or better yet upgrade your router.
