Thread: Strange problem with NSN 1600 router.

What's happening forum? Hope you guys are rocking as always.

The problem with my router is that it automatically restarts after every few minutes. I got this NSN 1600 router some 6 months ago, and it never gave any problem, but recently it has started behaving awkwardly.

When the router is powered on, the power indicator glows and remains steady. After a few seconds the DSL indicator starts blinking, and blinks for a few seconds, and then suddenly the router reboots even before it is connected to the internet.

This process is repeated several times, and the router is finally able to establish connection and remain steady. But again after 5-10 minutes it restarts all by itself Now it would take another few reboots to connect to the internet for few minutes.

I tried updating the firmware through the BSNL updater but it shows an error every time I try.

Do you think this problem can be corrected by upgrading the firmware or do I need to replace my modem?
If replacement is the only solution, could you please suggest me the best modem cum router under 3k? (I'm not so experienced with modems and routers).

Thanks guys!
