karthik Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 At random times my internet will die on the Netduma R2 router. My modem still has internet, but for some reason my router just has no internet. This is for both wifi and ethernet. My set up is a Arris Modem -> Netduma R2 The internet comes right back as soon as I restart the router. IPv6 is disabled and geo filter is turned off.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted June 8, 2021 Administrators Share Posted June 8, 2021 Are you able to access the router when the disconnect happens? If so does the System Information show a WAN IP or does it say disconnected? Is it a pure modem i.e. no WiFi? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karthik Posted June 8, 2021 Author Share Posted June 8, 2021 The few times I took a look at the router, it simply says "No Internet". I have gotten one other error the last time it happened, but I unfortunately didn't take a screenshot. Something strange is for sure happening on the router side, because my modem still has fully stable internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted June 8, 2021 Administrators Share Posted June 8, 2021 What is your modem model? In DHCP Settings on the router set the lease hours to 168 then reboot from the interface, wait 2 minutes then connect and see if it goes longer without disconnection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted June 8, 2021 Administrators Share Posted June 8, 2021 Ahh so it has WiFi, make sure on the modem you give the R2 a static/reserved IP, the same as is shown on the R2 System Information page and also put that in the DMZ on the modem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you experienced another disconnection since extending the lease time and putting the R2 in the SB8200 DMZ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karthik Posted June 10, 2021 Author Share Posted June 10, 2021 I havent put the R2 in the DMZ yet, as I can't seem to find a way to do that. I did change the lease, and am having no disconnections anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What firmware version is the R2 currently running? 3.0.205? Are you using PPPoE or VLAN identifiers for your internet connection? If you don't know, you probably aren't required to use them by your ISP. As your modem is a pure modem, do you still have the old router that you used before the R2?

DUMA BOLTON Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 I’m facing the exact same issue, I can’t access the GUI either when it internet disconnects, On the latest firmware, Changed Wi-Fi channel, Changed DCHP lease time to 168, I’m using PPPoE Fibre. Not sure if it’s a bug in the firmware as a few as now reported the issue. 😃 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you please go to the three-dot menu in the top right of the interface -> Advanced -> Rapp performance -> Click the advanced tab and hover your cursor slightly higher than the "Rapp" column. You should then see a "Show kernel values" checkbox appear, please check this and then click the Memory (P) column to sort by Memory usage and send a screenshot over of the table?

Can you ensure you elevate the router, putting it on a surface where it can get plenty of airflow not on a carpet for example. If you have a small fan, pointing it towards the R2 can help as well. See if the issue presents after this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
