Netduma R2 via Netgear 8 Port Switch

Recommended Posts

Got the new Netduma R2, connected it to my ATT Modem -> Netduma R2 -> Netgear 8 port switch -> Gaming PC.

ATT Fiber Internet 1000 up/down service. 

Was able to upgrade the R2 to latest firmware, did a factory reset on the R2, set up Wifi (works with Mobile app too).  (With PC Connected directly to Netduma R2).

However I have a ton of devices in my network, and when I go to my gaming PC, I have Internet connection as I can get to a page, however I cannot open apps such as Discord (it acts like no internet connections). Nor can I run a Speedtest with the speedtest app (or even on speedtest.net). I turned off Adblocker and still the same.

My Gaming PC has intermittent internet. And I cannot connect to the Netduma R2 from the gaming PC. So I have to connect a PC directly to the Netduma R2 for access. 

My other computers etc. work just fine  ATT Fiber Modem -> Netduma R2 -> Netgear 8 Port switch ->other devices.

Gaming computer, MAC, Laptop, TV etc off that Netgear 8 Port switch. And no I did not try to connect to Netduma with any other devices off that netgear 8 port switch because they are work computers. 

Another thing when I look at devices from the Netduma, my Gaming PC does not show up, but my other devices do. 

I tried, restarting my Gaming PC, as well as the Netgear 8 port Router. Nothing. So is there something I need to do on the Netduma or my Gaming PC to get this to work properly? 

Currently disconnected the Netduma R2 and put everything back the way it was previously. No issues with devices. 

 

Would like to be able to connect to Netduma from Gaming PC, as well as have Gaming PC connected correctly to the internet. 

Firewall on gaming PC is on, I guess I can try again with it turned off? 

But any other suggestions?

As you've found it seems like the issue here is the PC itself, given the R2 shows other devices and they're all working just fine. There are no settings by default other than Adblocker which you've disabled that could potentially single out a device. It sounds like the switch is a dumb switch so on the PC itself open command prompt, type ipconfig press enter and then post a screenshot of the results here please.
