So I just recently got the Netduma R2 router today set up went well but when it comes to wifi it would randomly disconnect I also have a device that's connected to the wifi but nothing is loading at all. 2 other people in my house hold have also mentioned problems with the wifi any help would be appreciatedĀ

Welcome to the forum!

Is it just wireless devices that are disconnecting, are wired devices working fine?

On a device that's connected to the Wi-Fi, are you able to get to the DumaOS interface by going to 192.168.77.1 in the web browser?

Can you also run a speedtest from a device that's in close proximity to the R2 and let us know what sort of speeds it's able to get? Does the speed test load at all?

It's just wireless devices having problems my wired evices work fine I just have instances where wireless devices disconnect or just not load anything at all as for being able to get into the interface I will test that now and run a speed test

Try these steps and see if you notice any improvement at all:

  • Disable Mirror Mode, give 2.4/5GHz different names and apply - you'll want to connect to 5GHz specifically for speeds, 2.4GHz for range
  • Use a WiFi analyzer to find the least congested channel and change to that
  • Experiment with the widths to see what gives better results
  • Ensure it's in an elevated position - not on a metal surface
  • Ensure there aren't any electrical / wireless devices e.g headphones etc within close proxity ~3 feet if possible
  • Set the antennae to this position _ | | _
