Need help!! I think my router has big problem....
Forum Wireless Networking : Range & connectivity - Need help!! I think my router has big problem....
It does sound like your router went bad. I had a repeater that acted similarly. It would work fine after unplugging it and plugging it back in, but after a day or so the blinking lights wouldn't blink anymore, and it wouldn't repeat the signal. I think something was getting hot in it, or it was just plain cheap. I'm not sure which yet.
Anyhow, I would try a new router. Linksys routers have done well for me in the past, as well as D-Link. I currently have the Gaming Router from D-Link that you wrote about, and it is definitely a great router. I've not had a single problem out of it, and firmware updates are very easy to keep up with.
The more you spend on a router usually the better of a router you'll get. I would go ahead and spend $60-$100 on a good one and be done with it. Just make sure you've got it on the surge protector after that. 
I recently bought one of the D-Link Platinum Rangebooster routers. I think it was $120 or so, but it is an excellent router as well.
You can find decent linksys routers for around $60-$70 if a more expensive one isn't an alternative for you. Linksys is associated with Cisco somehow these days, so their stuff should be pretty good (that's just an assumption based upon the Cisco name being paired with them though). I haven't had trouble with Linksys in the past either though.
My only advice:
Buy a new router
