Cannot access R2 router interface

[mengov]

While playing online we were booted from game and voice party then lost all internet connection wired and wifi(wifi first) the could'nt access the r2 interface, have tried to reboot 30 30 30 method and get invalid ip address  or unidentified network and it gets stuck in a boot loop. Any help would be appreciated.

[Netduma Fraser]

Please don't do the 30-30-30 method, it shouldn't be unplugged until it has finished rebooting correctly. Unplug it completely from the power for 10 minutes to let any residual power drain. Then connect it back to the power, does it continue to do a boot loop? If so hold the reset button for 30 seconds, then let go and wait 1-2 minutes for it to fully boot and see if it all works then.

Sorry it was a last attempt at rebooting it, i had it of all last night and booted it this morning and like i said it either goes unidentified or boot loops

Hi!

Have you tried to manually configure an IP within the range of R2 on your pc to see if you have access to the network? try it to see if it works.

Regards!

Hi i turned the R2 on and it was in boot loop so i pressed the reset button for 30 seconds and i have connection to the internet but cannot access the router interface, could you tell me how to do the ip configure procedure please.

I assume that the pc has it connected by cable, follow these steps. Press the windows start button and in the search bar type network and sharing center and click on it. In the left pane of the window click on change adapter settings, right click on local area connection and then click on properties. Find where it says internet protocol 4 and double click. In the window that opened, use the following IP address and fill in the fields like this:
192.168.77.100
255.255.255.0
192.168.77.1
DNS
192.168.77.1
8.8.8.8
IMPORTANT: CLICK ON VALIDATE CONFIGURATION ON EXIT (right next to where it says advanced configuration and above where it is accept.

In case the PC has it connected via wifi instead of cable, you will have to perform the same operation but instead of right-clicking on local area connection, you will have to do it in wireless connection.

Try if you can configure it and have access like that, I hope you have luck.

It just Started diagnostics Detecting problems and results are DHCP is not enabled for "Ethernet"

and unidentified network in Network Connections

So we can see where we are.
Right now you have R2 connected and working and you have internet but you don't have access to the R2 interface, right?

If you want this afternoon around 3:00 pm I have a space to do with you if you want a teamviewer session, I can try to do the manual configuration to see if you can regain access to the interface.
What operating system are you using? and what browser?
First of all, also try to clear the entire cache of your browser and then try to access R2 again

[Netduma Fraser]

That's a very nice offer from tito! Forgetting about the diagnostics it said were you able to access the interface using the static information?

Are you able to access the interface with any other device, either with WiFi or ethernet at all?

Do you get the same thing trying to access http://dumaos ? Also if you use an incognito browser window does that make a difference? What IP does the PC get when you don't have the static information set?

even with routerlogin.net I get the same error
I tried with chrome, explorer and edge, same thing
the IP address that my computer generates is 169.xxx.xxx.x
when i try to configure a static IP it says IP error
 

[DanyKTM]

my question is, what happen, I disconnect the R2 for one or 2 weeks and when I reconnect it betrays me. 

[Netduma Fraser]

Routerlogin.net is only for the Netgear routers so won't work for the R1/R2. With that IP you will need to try a reset again, hold the reset button for 30 seconds then release and wait 1-2 minutes, then try to access again. I've no idea what happened there.

[DanyKTM]

I did it 2 times (hard reset) I tried both routerlogin and dumaos.  Can I ship you my R2 ? it would be easy for you to trouble shoot.

I will run my XR500 while waiting

[Netduma Fraser]

We don't take back routers to debug usually to then send it back out again but I have raised these issues with the team so email with a link to this topic and we may be able to sort a replacement instead.

[DanyKTM]

sorry about that, but what is the email adress  ??
