i've had the same wireless router for four years, and have only had to
reboot it once, and it wasn't because of my Newton. FWIW, it's a
WRT54G, a later revision. I actually had the router stop responding
on the wired ports, and that's why it was rebooted. But no problems
since. It would have to be a firmware issue, if there's nobody else
in the vicinity with a router...
