    Who's your ISP? Same thing has been happening to me for the past week or so, I'm with UPC. Noticed the NAT settings like to change to moderate sometimes, which would be causing these sort of issues.

    I'm in the same boat happens at night nat type changes sometimes to strict
    I have the Xbox live settings on manual
    Dmz enabled on Reuter
    UNDP enabled
    And still have to reset my Reuter most nights
    I loose wifi signal and full connection
    I have he new Cisco dcois3

    you said DMZ enabled, but did you put the Xbox in the DMZ? if that fails, try manually opening the ports:

    TCP
    53 80 1863 3074

    UDP 53 88 1863 3074

    allow these ports on the manual IP, easy enough to do when you're with UPC

    I've done all that mate except for the port 1863
    Since putting port 1863 in it's been staying open
    I don't even think xbox support mention that port

    Thanks man

    Btw I also changed the lease from 60minutes to 1140 minutes
    Not sure if that helped but I haven't been disconnected since
