codean Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 After half a month of normal use with zero issues, my R2 no longer provides a steady internet connection. I thought it was an issue with my ISP but, after switching back to my R1 that isn’t the case. R1 functions with no issues, connection is great. The R2 seems to flash the “internet connection” light for 4 seconds and then off for a few seconds and repeats. I can no longer get to the R2 dashboard, only receive a “your connection was interrupted” message. Assistance from the Netduma team would be much appreciated!

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 4, 2020 Administrators Share Posted September 4, 2020 Were they any settings changes or changes to your setup in general prior to this happening? Could be as simple as plugging the power in somewhere else. I would suggest holding the reset button in the back of the router for 30 seconds then release, wait 1-2 minutes and attempt to access the interface again.

codean Posted September 5, 2020 Author Share Posted September 5, 2020 Zero changes to settings before the issue started. Nothing was touched for days. I was watching youtube vids when connection issues started/noticed. Pressing the reset button extended period brings back internet connection for my laptop but, my brand new pc doesn't see an internet connection (both connected via eithernet). Still can't access the control panel even after clearing browser cache with the laptop. Reconnected the R1, everything works fine with zero fuss.
