Problems with SMC2804WBRP-G not detecting/connecting with Windows Vista

Problems with BARRICADE SMC2804WBRP-G not detecting and connecting with Windows Vista Home Basic… Ever since I upgraded to Vista, my SMC cannot detect and connect with my desktop (HP Model a6115.pt). I did not have this problem with XP earlier. I have to either switch the SMC off/on or unplug/replug the RJ-45 connector for it to detect and connect with the computer and then the Internet. From there on everything is OK, but the family and wife get annoyed with this…
Is there an incompatibility between SMC and Vista? Is there a firmware upgrade available for SMC (current runtime code version: v2.08 (Mar 9 2005 14:47:15)) to solve this problem? Do I have to recycle this router…? Please help.

Router is probably configured incorrectly. Try this... Turn off cable modem and router for 1 min. Turn on cable modem...when done booting..turn on router...check for internet. If no...log into router and make sure it is NOT in PPOE but rather in dynamic mode. Good lUck
