There are a few with the router here, so you may get some help.

ive figured out its not routerstats  so its either router doesn't like wnda3100v2 or it doesn't like vmware so ive shutdown vmware to see

also on :5 now

I've not know that router to crash, on previous firmware I've had the odd occasion when wifi has been unavailable. I don't use routerstats,but virtual box works ok.

The only issue I've had a few times with this router is that it lost the EWAN connection to the FTTC modem and wouldn't reconnect until I rebooted the router.

it appears to have stopped rebooting now and ive got routerstats and vmware running and i also pulled out the dsl cable and it didn't reboot so its not due to lossing sync

ok i think it might have been because i had mac filter enabled and vmware is set to bridged so that might of confused it

FWIW I intially had all sorts of problems with the Netgear wnda3100v2 USB wireless unit. I initially thought it may heve been a problem with my 7800N wireless channel selection but I finally traced it to the fact that I had it plugged into a USB port on a card reader in my desktop, for no other reason than it was easy to get at. I believe it was seeing it as a hub, and it didn't like it. Once I could be bothered to crawl around under the table and plug it in to one of the mobo USB ports on the i/o panel everything was fine, and has been for ages now.
