Liliumbonafide Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 Hello everyone, I was wonder what the best set-up would be for the configuration I have. ISP : Bell Speed : 1Gig/1Gig modem : Bell Homehub3000 so right now I have it configured that all of the wifi is disabled, wps is disabled, I have the R2 in dmz from the isp modem. Is this the most optimal setup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted May 12, 2022 Administrators Share Posted May 12, 2022 Welcome to the forum! So all devices are connected to the R2 is that correct? If so yes that is optimal. I would recommend starting with our Optimal Settings Guides here: http://support.netduma.com/en/support/solutions/folders/16000090646 There are also ? icons on most panels that give more information about what that feature does which will help. If there is anything you're struggling with or not sure on after going through the guides just ask and we can help further!

Liliumbonafide Posted May 16, 2022 Author Share Posted May 16, 2022 All devices are connected to the R2 but sometimes my wifi cuts out. Also on my Adblocker I'm missing the Malware - cloud list. I'm not sure exactly what's going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted May 16, 2022 Administrators Share Posted May 16, 2022 What firmware version are you on currently? You can follow this guide to add the default lists which includes malware http://support.netduma.com/en/support/solutions/articles/16000133055-using-adblocker-on-xr1000 How often is the WiFi cutting out and does there appear to be any pattern as to when it happens?

Liliumbonafide Posted May 16, 2022 Author Share Posted May 16, 2022 I am currently on firmware 3.0.394, I’ve added the list so let’s see if that works. And the wifi cuts out as in the connection is still there just seems like there is no actual internet being transmitted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted May 16, 2022 Administrators Share Posted May 16, 2022 Here are a few suggestions to improve the WiFi. 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 _ | | _ In the next version we have made some changes that should improve WiFi performance overall.
