Hey,
I've never been to this board before, but I figured why not.
I've got a weird and recent problem. A year ago or so, I realized that on my wireless router, certain websites (Paranatural, Imgur, Whomp, my work scheduling page, other random things) cause my router to stop working when I connect to them wirelessly. Doesn't matter the device, phone, tablet, computer, whatever. If I open them, inevitably the internet will stop working through the wifi. I had a second router that didn't cause this problem, but lost it in an accident.
Plugging in to the modem doesn't cause it. Plugging directly in to the router doesn't cause it. But if I'm on wifi and I try to go to Imgur, it will start moving slowly, then not at all, requiring a hard reboot.
I'm going to get a new router soon, anyway, and this isn't life-or-death. Honestly, I'm just curious what on earth could be causing this. Figured I'd come over here and see if anyone has any ides.
Thank you! If anyone actually cares, I can get back to you with any information you need.
Had the same happen with American Airlines website on my WRT54/g/ back in the day. A firmware update fixed it.
(Also aware this isn't tech support. Won't be offended by pruning, honest.)

I can't get a firmware update to go, but I might be doing it wrong.
Bump. This happens on mine too and I can't update firmware either. I've tried two computers.
I might just buy a new router since this one is a few years old.
