Comp0za Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 There is a problem with my router, or the firmware itself, is that the DumaOS says that it is connected to internet but my devices won't get internet connection. This is third time now happened since I updated the firmware to .130. I had to restart the router to make it able to recognize the internet connection. I had called my ISP while this happened and they said that there was nothing wrong with the interet connection from their end. And as soon as I restarted the router, my devices got internet connection, while I was talking to my ISP in my phone. Why is this happening?

Netduma Liam Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Sorry to hear this. Are you able to access the interface when this occurs? What's indicating to you that the router still has a connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bert Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 I have had this twice as well on .130 firmware. White light stays on and status says connected. Was just letting it run to keep an eye on it, maybe it was coincidence. But if more users are reporting this issue it might be due to the firmware.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted November 13, 2021 Administrators Share Posted November 13, 2021 Was it happening on the beta version? Can you provide the logs when a disconnect happens? If the router is staying connected then might be the devices themselves losing connection, likely due to DHCP renewal. Change the DHCP range to start at .50 instead of .2 then give devices reserved IPs between .2 - .49, reboot from the interface and see if it is more stable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 In my case it was already set up like that. I have IP's assigned in the LAN menu. In this case the XR500 only has 2 clients and it's not running WiFi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathmath51 Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 @Netduma do you know if Netgear will ever work on a fix? (I mean really, it's been so long now) A router with a broken DHCP, crazy right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted November 13, 2021 Administrators Share Posted November 13, 2021 Yes they will, they were already aware of it and have collected a lot of logs from users and since the new firmware arrived we've been pushing for these issues to be resolved as quickly as possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted November 14, 2021 Administrators Share Posted November 14, 2021 We need to discuss further with Netgear and see where they are at with it so I can't say for certain, glad it's resolved for the moment. Check the IP on your device manually, then double check the device you think it is on the Device Manager has the same IP - might be you're prioritizing the wrong device without realizing.

Honestly I wonder how they greenlight this firmware with a breaking bug on such a basic feature. It says a lot about this company Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won't be beta as far as I'm aware, the next firmware will be another full release. I'll chase up the team I've spoken to at Netgear to see where we are with it.
