Troopergr Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Greetings all, I have observed that after a few days, wifi performance on some devices starts to drop and I have to restart it to work. Also this happens sometimes on the LAN pcs that I noticed. I am using the latest firmware 3.0.205, and I don't have enabled anything. I am behind a speedport plus vdsl modem/router which I have put in DMZ mode with only netduma connected. It seemed to be working ok apart from the occasional resets I had to do on both netduma and speedport. Some packets seem to be dropping constantly and I dont know why. Here is a part of my log. If someone can help. I am watching a stream on twich and it freezes and resumes every few seconds.

Netduma Liam Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Welcome to the forum! What speeds do you expect from the ISP and what are you actually getting through the R2? Are they similar or is the R2 seeing dratically less? Do you have the two Wi-Fi networks seperated or are they Mirrored? You can check this in Network Settings -> LAN -> Wi-Fi.

My line is 220/22 and I am getting good speeds, but the problem is that after some use I get strange problems, like netflix not connecting on one device, or a website will not open on another device etc. When I notice these things, I just reboot netduma and everything is ok again. Settings are mirrored on wifi. Those packets that are being dropped, is it normal or is it something I need to do ? If I ping 8.8.8.8 for example it will ping at 60ms, but it might go up to 120-200 for a click or 2 depending on whats happening.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted May 6, 2021 Administrators Share Posted May 6, 2021 Dropping packets is normal but not usually that frequently, have you set the DMZ on the R2 or done any port forwarding, disabled UPnP at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have set the DMZ on my modem/router so it sends everything to the netduma. I have not configured any DMZ on netduma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted May 6, 2021 Administrators Share Posted May 6, 2021 Might be dropping packets when devices switch from 2.4 to 5GHz and vice versa. Disable Mirror mode, give 2.4/5GHz different names then apply and connect manually to 2.4 or 5 and see if the issues and dropped packets is resolved.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted May 6, 2021 Administrators Share Posted May 6, 2021 Does it specify this in the log or are you observing that through pings etc? If you open command prompt and type ping 8.8.8.8 -t and then stop it after a little while, can you post a screenshot of the results? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Netduma Liam Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 OK thanks, could you perhaps provide a screenshot of the ping result? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already did, and it seems to be much better. Will keep monitoring it over the next couple of days and get back with results. Many thanks for the help!
