Yep, with both 3.3.0 and 3.3.2 RC1 WiFi connections drop out briefly and regularly. Basically makes WiFi unusable. Was fine on 3.2.1 - but that had so many other bugs as to force us to use our 2820Vn as a door stop. Guess it's back to its fitting role again.

I'm also having problems since the 3.3.0 firmware. My wireless was fine on 3.2.1 with my HP laptop, but now it' s useless. The only reason I joined the forum was to check that it wasn't just my 2820.

When you say switching it on and off do you mean the router or your PC? I have always had a problem where I would have to switch the router off and back on because the wireless stops working, any hard wired devices are fine its just wireless devices, if I left it for about 5 - 10 minutes it would start working again it was just a reboot cured it much more quickly, oh and when connecting to the router everything appeared fine.

I have since discovered that it was being caused by having a wireless device in the DMZ (my Nokia phone) since removing that device it has been fine.

I just reverted to 3.2.1 last night because the wireless stability is too poor on 3.3.0. It's a real shame as the other functionality is great.

I've had all sort of issues with WIFI on my 2820vn. I often found I was restarting my router every evening to get things working again.

However when I configured all my devices to use a static IP, the problems have cleared up. But this is very annoying as I'd prefer not to use this method.
