EspiritDeCorps Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Hello, Can you please help me how to set up my Wifi, I just connected my phone to r2's wifi by default ( just simply write it's password with no additional settings ) and I have low connection to mobile apps, most of the time I have to wait a lot in loading session for some apps ( in my case online food apps / instagram / linkedIn ) - with mobile data I go instantly. Thank you ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newfie Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Turn off the mirror mode and rename the 2 channels and then try to connect to the 5 Ghz channel. I would keep the 2.4ghz to 20Mhz bandwidth and 80Mhz for the 5Ghz. EspiritDeCorps 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted April 6, 2021 Administrators Share Posted April 6, 2021 I would recommend exactly what has been stated above. Also with the antennae set them out like this _ | | _ to two facing upwards, and one either side pointing outwards.

EspiritDeCorps Posted April 16, 2021 Author Share Posted April 16, 2021 I did what you guys said, it worked perfectly, but only for one week. Now it feels the same, low connection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newfie Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Have you scanned The neighbouring channels to see if they are interfering and has anything new been added i.e. Bluetooth devices or any electrical equipment? Are you connecting on the 5 GHz channel and you are seeing a drop on this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted April 16, 2021 Administrators Share Posted April 16, 2021 Great advice above, it won't have degraded without a change to your setup or the neighboring WiFi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EspiritDeCorps Posted April 16, 2021 Author Share Posted April 16, 2021 it's right next to the internet provider router, I connected to the other router and works perfectly fine. I don t know what would be the reason to have such low connection on r2 ( on smartphone ). and yes, i m using the 5ghz channel. If you want me to attach some screenshots from `dumaos/` settings just tell me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted April 16, 2021 Administrators Share Posted April 16, 2021 I would recommend you move the R2 away from the ISP router if possible or better would be to disable the ISP router WiFi as they could interfere with each other Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EspiritDeCorps Posted April 16, 2021 Author Share Posted April 16, 2021 I disabled the ISP router wifi, nothing changed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted April 16, 2021 Administrators Share Posted April 16, 2021 Do you have any other wireless/electrical devices in close proximity to the router? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EspiritDeCorps Posted April 17, 2021 Author Share Posted April 17, 2021 why would this be a problem, the isp wifi works perfectly fine and it's right next to them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This includes cables too. Netduma Fraser 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EspiritDeCorps Posted April 17, 2021 Author Share Posted April 17, 2021 I m not using bluetooth and my phone is the only device connected to r2's wifi. So the only option is to distance the r2 from the isp and other electrical devices as far as possible ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newfie Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 It’s worth trying, mov it away and test. If that fails we can see what else is the problem. Worth checking a WiFi analyser too to see if there’s an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted April 17, 2021 Administrators Share Posted April 17, 2021 Explained well above! Let us know how you get on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EspiritDeCorps Posted April 18, 2021 Author Share Posted April 18, 2021 I tried to place it on several positions, but nothing changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted April 18, 2021 Administrators Share Posted April 18, 2021 Disable the 2.4GHz WiFi, apply, wait 2 minutes, then re-enable and apply, is it any better then? I'd usually recommend doing this with a reboot but as 5GHz is fine I think we should see whether it improves without it first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EspiritDeCorps Posted April 19, 2021 Author Share Posted April 19, 2021 I disabled / enabled 2.4GHz, and after I pressed Reboot, router lost connection. I ve waited 20min and still doesen t connect. I can t even open dumaos/... i plugged/replugged the power supply and it s still dead. It connects for 3-4 sec (wired) and then boom, losts connection and its doing this over and over again. The 2.4ghz / 5ghz are not flashing @Netduma Fraser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EspiritDeCorps Posted April 19, 2021 Author Share Posted April 19, 2021 *update: I pressed factory reset, manually ( ~30sec ) and now I only have wired connection, I cannot access the interface anymore ( dumaos/ ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EspiritDeCorps Posted April 19, 2021 Author Share Posted April 19, 2021 *update - I unplugged / plugged the power supply and, again, lost connection - manually reset 30 sec and I m back with wired connection and no interface access ( dumaos/ ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Liam Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Are you able to access the interface if you go to 192.168.77.1 in your browser? Are you still getting an IP address from the R2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
