Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted November 27, 2021 Administrators Share Posted November 27, 2021 It's probably your specific router so once we get the replacement out to you we can see if it still occurs and get the router back if necessary for testing willthetech 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willthetech Posted December 6, 2021 Author Share Posted December 6, 2021 Ok so I got the new router. (thanks by the way, kudos for sending me a replacement). But unfortunately the WAN disconnected is still there. I have WOW for our internet provider. I have an Arris CM8200 modem, with 1gb down and 50mb Up .I am starting to think the R2 does not play well with the Arris 8200 and only the R2 because all other routers I have here never have this issue. If I put the R2 behind my TP Link A9 router, it works immediately and actually it never losses internet. But I want the R2 to be my primary Router... So I am switching my provider (not because the R2 lol) to spectrum and I am going to set up my Raspberry pi4 to run openwrt as a dedicated router. This will give me SQM, local dns server, etc... and also I can provide a 192.168.etc...IP to the R2, just like the rest of the routers I have here. Crossing my fingers this does the trick...

Interesting, I have the same modem (SB8200) and was experiencing WAN disconnects as well before the new firmware. I upgraded but saw speeds @ like 3mbps when my download is easily 450 so I swapped back out because I don't have the will or time to try and troubleshoot this holiday season. So I haven't left mine connected long enough to see if the WAN issue is still happening. willthetech and Netduma Liam 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you able to get to the interface when the disconnections occur now? Do you require PPPoE or VLAN IDs? Let us know if there's any changes under the new ISP too, I'm interested as to what the cause is here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just picked up my spectrum modem and I can actually run both connections in my house. (exiting I can test my port aggregation work test box environment I am working on).. no pppoe / no vlans, just a dynamic IP from the modem. we will see...
