Netgear settings for AT&T

I just got off the phone with AT&T. According to their diagnostics, the internet signal they're providing is sound from their perspective. I can logon to the internet and my modem seems to br functioning correctly, but I frequently lose my connection and am having to constantly shut the modem down and reboot.

According to AT&T, there are some settings in my wireles modem / router that are unique to ATT. I have a Netgear N150. I've looked on the internet and I can't find anything.

Thoughts?

Hello, cdowdy!

The unit that I have hasn't been provided for me by Bell South, rather it's one that I've purchased on my own. The manual for said wireless router / modem can be found at ftp://downloads.netgear.com/files/DGN1000_SM_15Oct09.pdf. I'm referencing that not so much so you can do for me what I need to do for myself, as much as it gives you a comprehensive snapshot of what I have and what I may be missing.

I'm looking through the manual, seeking specific ATT settings and I don't see anything mentioned.

I don't have a Panasonic phone and I will keep an eye on the indicator light to see if if flashes just before my signal drops.

Hey, Folks!

I finally just bit the bullet and completely rebuilt my hard drive and I'm working just fine now. I think, in light of the vast improvement that I'm now enjoying, what I had was a collection of renegade apps running the background and that was what was compromising my connectivity.

I'm going to distribute points equitably and I do so appreciate your time and input.

Thanks!
