belkin router keeps dropping

Router Placement: Ensure that your router is placed in a central location to provide optimal coverage. Avoid placing it near electronic devices that may cause interference. Update Firmware: Check for firmware updates on the Belkin website. Outdated firmware can lead to connectivity issues. If an update is available, follow the instructions provided to upgrade your router's firmware. Change Wireless Channels: Access your router settings (via the web interface) and navigate to the wireless channel settings. Experiment with different channels to find one with less interference from other devices in your area. Adjust Security Settings: Sometimes, overly strict security settings can cause connectivity problems. Temporarily lower your router's security settings (e.g., switch from WPA2 to WPA) to see if it resolves the dropping connection issue. If successful, consider updating your devices' Wi-Fi settings accordingly.
