Have you tried a new wallwart (if that's what powers it)? I find that the light-weight switch mode ones tend to go flakey after a while. In the case of my modem the symptom is that LAN connections between local computers etc. work fine but the internet connection keeps dropping out. My theory is that the modem needs the full 12v which the PSU struggles to provide but the router portion drops it to 5V through a stabiliser.
