Apple products losing wifi connectivity

SG'ers
I have a DDWRT router and for some reason all apple mobile devices lose connectivity after they power their screens down.

I'm not a jerk and will eventually send it back because it is a significant amount, but theoretically what recourse do they have ...

It has something to do with Flash.. It only happens when flash is open and playing music...

Is your modem also a router and perhaps double natting. Go to start/run/cmd/enter and type ipconfig /all and see what your IP is.
assuming it's not in the 192 range, you're getting your IP from the modem/router and not from your new router

Secondly, my credit score went DOWN because I paid off all my debt. It's because I'm no longer a slave to their system. When I was in debt, I used to get credit card offers once a day in the mail...now, my mailbox is empty most days.
