Hi all,
I have AT&T U-verse with t here proprietery modem/router setup cascaded with a netgear 750 router running ddwrt.
My problem is that my wifi will constnatly drop. I can browse the web just fine but for any streaming media it will stop downloading the stream and I have to refresh page, select where I was before it stopped and continue from there in hopes that it won't happen again (which it most usually does).
I've tried the following:
-setup static ip's
-disabled the 5GHz antenna
-did a site survey and selected the least congested channel
-enabled wireless-G only mode
nothing seems to fix it. I should mention, LAN'ing in is just fine.
Not sure what else to try?
Appreciate any help on the matter.
Thanks!

maybe I wasn't clear in my post. But as I am streaming video or using skype or any form of internet activity that constantly requires a live connection. The activity will stop, not just to buffer but it will actually just stop loading altogether as it has lost connection.
For example. Watching a youtube vid, it will just stop loading the rest of the video until I refresh and click where I was last and it may stop yet again after a certain point at which point I would have to refresh the page again. On skype, the session will abruptly end. I hope that is clear enough for you.
