Hello, I had emailed you guys before in regard to whether my application of this router and an access point would work, and it did seem to! But I have come across some pretty bad issues which are hindering me from getting to my final goal with this router.
I set up what I could and got the range that I wanted for the access point. I then tried to plug a PC into the Netduma through LAN so I could run ubuntu server and start a docker container which could be accessible across the whole house. When I plugged the PC in, it caused the LAN on the router to entirely shut out, some occasions it would even drop the Wi-Fi. I would have to manually add static information just to get back to the netduma menu and see what I could do to get it back online whether it was removing the machine from the network or resetting. I have factory reset the router an ungodly number of times, Reinstalled firmware but seem to be getting back to that same issue. Closest I have gotten is where I did get the machine to connect once, but then the docker container would not work at all, only a basic apache2 server would, and when trying a different method, it would just loop back to destroying any connectivity with the router again.
I have gotten to a point where I have manually added my PC's reservations to get online as DHCP doesn't seem to want to allocate them properly at all, But Wi-Fi seems to be working okay with most wireless devices. Even though the PC's are online however, any attempt at making a server where it be a docker container or even a Minecraft one to test, will bring no response from any of them, being timeouts or page errors. I am at a complete loss as to where to continue really!
The mapping I have of everything goes:
Virgin Media (In modem mode) -> NetDuma R2, and plugged in by one of the LAN's is -> TP Link router in AP mode to bring wireless signal downstairs. I have 2 PC's connected via LAN, several wireless devices and two wireless repeaters.
Hope you guys can be of any assistance, much appreciated!
Small Edit: Thought I would let you guys know that I tried to sign up to these forums using my gmail account and it would not send me the verification email at all, on outlook however I got the email instantly, might be something wonky with gmail but thought you should know!
