Azlios Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 2 minutes ago, Netduma Fraser said: Thanks for the additional info. Your DHCP settings, have they been changed to keep LAN IPs in a restricted range compared to the default which I believe is .100-250? nope I tend not to change anything like that as I don't really understand any of it. Only thing I changed was the lease time to a week when asked to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 25, 2019 Administrators Share Posted January 25, 2019 Okay that's good just checking. Have you set a static IP on the console rather than the router or is it connected via automatic network settings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azlios Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 It used to have a static IP but since it didn't help the situation its all set up to be automatic again. I'll try keep an eye on the system info page as much as I can on Thursday next week to try and see whats happening when it drops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course as you say it could very well be an issue that only occurs to me and Azlios. And that most probably means that it is a hardware issue, wouldn't you agree? In my case, the original R1 that I received from you was defective (reset button problem) so I was sent a replacement R1. Could it be that the replacement R1 is a defective unit as well? Are you usually giving refurbished units for replacement or brand new ones in a situation like mine? 22 hours ago, Azlios said: I've kinda accepted it at this point Personally I can't digest the fact that I own a "premium" router and had to spend £50 extra to buy yet another router in order to have reliable WiFi. 22 hours ago, Azlios said: I reckon it might have something to do with BT too if George is also on BT No I was on EE and the issue persists even though I recently moved overseas.

Azlios Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 These are all from a quick search on the forum with similar issues across all platforms. There was even a firmware for the xr500 to help alleviate this issue. Granted they may be completely different issues and its not as simple to say here look everyone else has the same problem as me but I do think there are quite a few people out there having the same WiFi issue, and probably don't understand whats causing it, me included. Lots of people like me too that have had it since the 1.03.6 update. Like I said before though, I'm sure it's not a simple fix and will probably take some time, but now its on your radar I'm happy to think you'll have it fixed soon. ^^"They're different platforms and therefore different issues. This one is for Netgear to fix. If once DumaOS is released on the R1 WiFi issues continue we will be able to look into it further and have a fix."

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 26, 2019 Administrators Share Posted January 26, 2019 It seems related to DHCP so not sure if it's a hardware issue and therefore something we should be able to fix in a firmware update, they are looking into it so hopefully they'll find the cause. Developers will let you know if they need any more information. Those are related to XR500 so for Netgear to fix or from the old R1 firmware which was likely a different issue as it doesn't seem as prevalent on DumaOS.

scbba Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Happens 2 to 3 times a day or it may go a week or 2 without dropping but sometimes it' not all devices it' a few then other times its all of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted they may be completely different issues Given the really bad support given here, I am sure there are a lot of people who don't even bother raising their issues. For instance I have raised another DumaOS defect that I am facing when trying to use third party VPN clients (R1 is blocking the connections) 1,5 month ago and even though I have given all the required info to the netduma team they still haven't managed to replicate the issue. I have been requested multiple times to do their debugging for them, even if that involves downgrading/upgrading my router's firmware etc. For a "premium" gaming router this kind of support is unacceptable if you ask me...

Okay so there doesn't seem to be anything in common between the occurrences such as at specific times or under heavy/low bandwidth usage? 9 hours ago, George said: Given the really bad support given here, I am sure there are a lot of people who don't even bother raising their issues.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted February 7, 2019 Administrators Share Posted February 7, 2019 It might be that it's taking a little while to adjust after the new modem. If you plug the old one in I assume its fine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This issue has taken a while - the reason being the difficulty of testing for it. Your logs are invaluable in this case as are the previous ones from Azlios, but I believe it's been a very hard nut to crack. We know there's somethin' fishy going on, but so far it's only clearly affected both of you and not the tens of thousands of other users. For us on the support team, the best we can do to help you both is to make sure it's being investigated; and I can assure you guys that it is. I feel like every logical solution in terms of settings has been explored at this point. I'm sorry it's happening to you, I just hope we can get a fix out in the next update. Any chance you have something on this matter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tidemaquina Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Same issue for me, Wifi last 1 or 2 days without problems. Once i reboot it, problems gone, its like night and day. I was just thinking on buying a AC adapter with Timer so it turns power off once a day. Actually one simple thing you should have in the software is a schedule reboot option. Using R1 with DumaOS Open Beta i havent yet reseted after dumaos update, i will test increase lease time. Should i factory reset before anything?

Should i factory reset before anything? That's a good idea, I have suggested it to the team! I would always recommend doing a reset after an update to ensure no legacy issues are present from the previous firmware so do that first and then if you continue to experience issues increase the lease time.
