My Belkin F5D7230-4 v6000 wireless modem disconnects every 4 hours. It has the latest firmware version(F5D7230-4_US_8.01.21), acquired from Belkin website. I have DHCP on and a "forever" lease time. Security is WPA/WPA2-Personal(PSK) with TKIP + AES encryption. Resetting it to factory defaults doesn't do a thing. I already called my ISP and confirmed that I have correct settings. Anybody knows what could be the problem?

Intermittent connection with the use of networking devices, like routers, switches and hubs are known to experience this issue. Most problem occurs in a repetitive manner, it works for a while and it disconnects after, in your case every 4 hours.

Interruptions – This issue is a bit technical to discover and identify. You'll need to know the equipment, devices that near to the modem/router that might cause the interruptions. Keep them away from the networking device that you have and or move them little farther.

* Microwave
* Cordless Phones
* Electro-Magnetic devices
* Satellite Dish and even floor mats (carpet)

Time of usage – Some Internet service provider times out when a certain time and Internet usage in Giga Bytes are met. It limits Internet connection to a certain Bytes downloaded then it time outs. Call your ISP and check if this might be the issue. Upgrade your service plan if possible.

Modem-Router networking issue – It doesn't mean that their is something wrong with either equipment, but for some reasons, they can't talk/communicate. A sequenced power cycle is the trick, in this it'll refresh the connections and became in sync.
