Need help with linksys router

I setup a small network in this guys house, I used the wrt55ag. Its the new A+B wireless router. The prolbem is that it seems that the DHCP server just shuts down. I have to reset the router everytime this happens. I was wondering if anyone has encountered this before and/or if they have any fixes for it.
 
I have multiple problems with Linksys gear (i.e., disconnects, resets, etc.) and finally replaced them all with Netgear which has been working fine ever since. Sorry that I can't help with the problem at hand because my best guess was also upgrade the firmware.

Could the DHCP server be running out of addresses? Have you changed the defaults?

Its not running out of addresses. There is only 4 computers. I think I'm going to hard code the addresses in there but it just pisses me off that its not working right.

Ill tell you a relavent story. I had the Befsrv41 the 4 port router from linksys. I had the exact problem connection going in and out etc. I gave the router to a friend he has 0 problems. But my neighborr just bought one and he's having the same problems i did! linksys is good but perhaps looking else where(siemens for example) would be a better option. I own a seimens powerline router and it kicks ass
 
I had that same router -- it just wouldn't work right with the particular cable modem I was trying to hook it up with. An equivalent Netgear router worked flawlessly, and the Linksys worked fine on my network but not the one I was trying to install it on. They just have problems with their DHCP implementation in some of their equipment, apparently.
