Weird router/internet issues

[Tyche]

I'm constantly having to release and renew my IP on my computers at home when either connected directly to my router or on WiFi at my house to access some sites (usually facebook). This is what I'm getting on my phone/laptop. Any ideas?

need a little more info before i take a stab at this but, have you tried connecting your computer directly to your modem and seeing if this continues to occur, and also what type of router?

WRT160Nv3

Now I'm getting this on FB

[Ramor]

is there some sort of firewall option on your router? this seems more and more like a weird software issue rather than a hardware one

Have you tried restoring the router to default settings? For Linksys the IP is 192.168.1.1 and the factory restore is under Administration.

I am by no means an expert when it comes to routers, but that's probably where I would start.

Firmware update?

I have that router, it sucked ass until i put tomato on it.

It hasn't been updated in a year, but the last build still runs without problems for me.
