So I have a Linksys 4-port Cable/DSL router. It's worked great until
about 2 weeks ago, when it totally freaked out and wouldn't release its
DHCP lease with Comcast. I spent pretty much all day getting it back
online.

It worked great for awhile and now it seems to be locking up several
times a day, to the point where I have to do the magic
router-reanimation-dance and power it down, power down the cable modem,
then power them both back up in reverse order. Note that it does not
appear to matter if I am naked when performing said dance.

So, this is a two-fold question:

1) Anyone have this problem before and find a permanent fix?

2) Assuming the answer to number one is buying a different router, does
anyone have any non-linksys suggestions? Needs to be pretty low-profile
so it will fit in our silly media hub that lives in the wall of our
closet. Minimum 4-ports, plus all those nifty firewall features and stuff.
