baz6578 Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 Almost everyday the wifi will knock itself off and I have to re-enter the password into all attached devices again. My Xbox one is connected via Ethernet cable will stay on while everything else drops out. At first I thought it was a one off but now it's tedious.

ColonicBoom Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 If the Netduma's wifi was dropping out (at the Duma) I would have thought you'd have to restart it to have it reactivate rather than re-enter the password on devices. The devices ought to remember the password regardless and when you click on the network (within your laptop's network selection for example) it should reconnect automatically. I use a separate router as an access point for the wifi though so perhaps I'm misunderstanding. What is your setup? Mine would be: Virgin Superhub (modem mode) > Netduma (wifi disabled) > Asus Dark Knight (Access Point mode). Are they all dropping connection at the same time? Could it be your distance from the router? Have you tried the 'wifi workaround' option in miscellaneous settings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzy clam Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 As CB said,check and see if the wifi work around in miscellaneous settings is ticked or unticked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baz6578 Posted May 12, 2016 Author Share Posted May 12, 2016 I have sky hub (wifi disabled) > Netduma I have set sky hub as told to using dmz etc in wiki. I did have wifi workaround enabled then I read you should disable. What is best. The router is about 10 feet away from Xbox one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did have wifi workaround enabled then I read you should disable. What is best. The router is about 10 feet away from Xbox one. It's a workaround for when something is not working, so if it's not working with the option you have selected then try it. I don't know anymore about it to be honest. I don't use it on mine but if my device wasnt working then I'd try the opposite. Are you trying to play Xbox over a wifi connection? I would expect that you will always suffer inconsistencies with a gaming device on wifi - that's just wifi. It shouldn't constantly drop out but you will definitely suffer more lag and general whoopsies on wifi. I've never tried Xbox over wifi, what does it say when the connection drops out?
