Thanks! Later today I will connect all my devices to R2. But before I do, should I disable the wifi on the modem? Also should I just leave the settings on R2 wifi "mirror settings on both 2.4 and 5ghz" enabled? So I could choose which one goes to 2.4? idk if that's a good idea.

I would suggest disabling Mirror mode so you can choose 2.4 or 5GHz for a device. Squidid 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squidid Posted October 9, 2020 Author Share Posted October 9, 2020 10 mins ago the internet connection was lost. The router's still on, it did not reboot. I haven't tried the ethernet though. So I tried the modem's(ISP's) wifi and there's internet. The 2.4ghz and 5ghz from R2 does not and cannot access both dumaos and modem. Also I took a video of the R2. Idk if the 2.4 and 5ghz supposed to be blinking all the time? I'm starting to think that there is something in the ISP modem's settings is making the R2 act up like this? We have 3 security cameras. I'm not done connecting the rest of the devices to the R2 and now I'm not sure if I should, shouldn't I? I think I saw a settings in the R2 that allows you guys remotely control the R2 for fixing purposes or something? Maybe we can do that? idk.

Well just see how it goes on the current version then, would suggest changing the DHCP lease hours to 168 though. If you get it again then upgrade.

Squidid Posted October 12, 2020 Author Share Posted October 12, 2020 Okay so it happened again just now. I can't access anything in the internet even the DumaOS but, the security cameras are still working... I'm going to send you a video of it. Then there's a weird part where the google is working but yahoo, speedtest, and DumaOS is not working. I trimmed the video a little bit but, I want to show you what's really happening.

Squidid Posted October 12, 2020 Author Share Posted October 12, 2020 It's been an hour now and still no internet connection from the R2. Both ethernet and wifi. I already did the DHCP and then just this morning the one other one you told me. Update: 6 hours after that I unplugged all the ethernet cables and power and the internet came back. I didn't turn off the modem, just the R2. So the only ones that are connected to my R2 are my phone, PC, and 2 security cameras. The rest of the ppl here are still connected to the modem(ISP).

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted October 13, 2020 Administrators Share Posted October 13, 2020 Apply the DHCP again in Settings and see if that restores the connection, the new update should be out soon and hopefully that will prevent the issues reoccurring.

Squidid Posted October 16, 2020 Author Share Posted October 16, 2020 @Netduma FraserSo last night the internet connection went out again from 3:00am to 7:00am. I slept too late and woke up early. lol Anyways, I unplugged the ethernet and power cord again and the internet came back. Looks like that's the only solution for now when the internet cuts off for a long time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted October 16, 2020 Administrators Share Posted October 16, 2020 Probably struggling to re-establish the connection, are you using a pure modem or modem/router? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ISP's a modem/router then the R2's connected to it. The rest of my family is still connected to the modem/router because they complain a lot when the connection issues happen. lol While my devices and I stick to the R2.

On the ISP router, give the R2 a static/reserved IP and then it should stay connected, use the IP it already has for minimal disruption.

By the way I don't know if I already mentioned in this thread, the ISP's modem mode is C3000Z. Just to let you know. Might help you or anything.

Warrior Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 @Squidid I had the same problem as your going trew the way I fix it @Netduma Fraser sent me a pm I did that then I factory reset it then as @Netduma Fraser said change the dhcp lease to 168 then I bought a usb fan put it on the bottom of my r2 and now it works perfect also make sure to download wifi analyzer to make sure the channel is not congested 1,6,11 are the most clutter so pick a channel that only you are on that work like magic now my r2 runs perfect hope this helps Squidid and Netduma Fraser 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how to do it. I think I found the one for replacing the MAC not IP. 😁 Don't know where to look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be in LAN Settings most likely, should list the R2 as a device, then just give it a static/reserved IP (the same one) and apply.
