When I first got Fusion service, I loved it until I found that streaming video would stop every few minutes.
It turns out that what was happening was that Sonic renews it's DHCP leases every 5 minutes, and the renewal message was being blocked by the built in firewall of my DD-WRT router. So rather than properly renewing, the lease would expire and the video would drop while a new lease was being set up.
The fix is to allow those messages through:
add a rule to specifically allow those messages. Do this by navigating within your router’s interface to Administration > Commands, and entering the following into the Commands fields:
iptables -I INPUT 2 -p udp --sport 67 --dport 68 -j ACCEPT
Finally, press the Save Firewall button to save the rule to be executed whenever the router is restarted.
