Router wiping itself and many other issues


Recommended Posts

My router has been consistently lagging and disconnecting. Then today my router has fully wiped itself to factory settings and wouldn’t let me log in without factory resetting. My speeds are slower then what they used to be. I am getting kicked from online games due to the router deciding to not connect to anything for a 1-2 minutes at random intervals. Anyone got a fix?

Welcome to the forum!

Sorry to hear you're having this issue, have any settings been changed or any new devices being added prior to the issues occurring? How did you figure out it did a factory reset without being able to confirm by accessing - did the WiFi SSID revert to the default? What is the model of the modem/router you're using that the XR is connected to?

In LAN Setting, set the DHCP range to start at .50, then assign reserved IP addresses to devices between .2 & .49 so they're out of the DHCP range, apply, reboot from the interface, wait 2 minutes and see if that stops the disconnects.

So now that I’ve been using this settings for a bit. I still do disconnect in all devices but I’m not disconnecting as much. However on my Xbox if I use 5 GHZ my connection disconnects quite a bit. And I know it’s not the console because I used 5 GHz on my Xbox at a friends house just fine. My phone doesn’t work on 2.4 ghz at all. I just get a no internet connection and have to use 5 GHz. Any ideas for a fix?

Couple of questions.

do you any type of special characters in your WiFi password and have you tried changing it? You could set up a guest WiFi to test too, give it a name like Testme and a password different to your main one.

what’s your security setting ie.WPA?

what’s the range of the ps5 to the router?

Whats the settings under both 2.4 and 5Ghz on the bandwidth side?

have you performed a manual install of the firmware followed by a reset. When you set up don’t use a saved config profile.

Do you notice when it disconnects that it’s just the device ie PS5 or does it drop the 5GHz channel?
