Well - I solved the problem. Bought a linksys RV082 and the problems are
gone. I guess the home linksys just didn't have the capacity to handle
the load. And this new router has 100mb connection on the Wab side and I
think the cablemodem can go over 10mb at times. The curse of having a
really good cable provider.
