Sorry im like the slowest person in the world when it comes to tech lol the reason im downloading the firmware is because whenever i try to use my netduma r2 via van cable, it connects for a couple seconds and then will just randomly disconnect and continue to do the same thing over and over again. When i am connected to my modem via lan cable directly to my computer my internet is completely fine but wont let me access the 192.168.77.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will respond in your topic about not being able to access momentarily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG__DOG Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 @Netduma Fraser @Netduma Liam R2 is back up and running. I plugged it in and I gained access to the gui, I am worried about doing a pinhole reset and it locks me out again. Faris 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to hear that, when you do a reset next time do it from the interface first and it should be alright after that Faris 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuzy Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Hello, I put a manageable switch behind the R2 because I consider that a router is made for routing, a switch for switching and an AP for wifi. I was unable to get an automatic ip address behind the R2 for my switch despite giving it a static ip address on the R2's DHCP! I managed to access the switch administration page only by managing it on my main router! I was then able to put a static ip on the DHCP of the R2 and finally behind the R2 I was able to access its administration page! As above the switch does not get an ip address!

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 18, 2021 Administrators Share Posted December 18, 2021 @Fuzy are devices connected to the switch getting internet? What is the switch model? If you reboot the switch does it get an IP then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could try leaving it unplugged from power for 24 hours as well as that does sometimes bring it back to life. thank you its work with me Netduma Fraser 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheckoutCoachCam Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 Hi, Ever since applying this update, whenever I reboot the router remotely, non of my devices can connect unless I reset the modem. And it takes a loooong time. Any fixes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so that's probably why, it should be rebooted from the interface. Also modems/routers can be picky about the way and order in which they are rebooted. I'd suggest rebooting the modem first, wait 2 minutes, then reboot the router, wait 2 minutes and it should work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrighty338 Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 Just upgraded + factory reset all is well. Will there be any further optimisation of the ui in the next release to make it snappy as possible or are we at peak loading times? cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so what web browser/device are you using, is it on the whole interface or specific pages? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is nothing specifically that was changed that would affect that at all, once the team are back they can take a look at this though we may have another firmware on the way in early jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
