  1. Change the channel number (in case there is an interference issue with another router in the area).
  2. Update the firmware to the latest revision.
  3. See whether any of the filters or firewalls are blocking. NAT should not be of issue.
  4. Dropkick the router and buy another brand.

I've been in the network engineering industry for years and Linksys has always had "issues". I've also seen many issue with D-Link. Netgear has been a good solid performer and I also think the new ASUS devices are holding their own especially if you need a NAS storage solution built into the router.

What ever your device, remember to flash often as new bug fixes come out.

Cheers!
