liveandletdie34 Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 So I have had my r2 since release and already had a replacement. So as of today and all of a sudden have no internet connection to my pc and it’s been fine. I haven’t gamed for a few months. And thought I would have a game tonight. But my internet connection flickers between on and off on my pc I am sure this is exactly the same issue I had with my first r2. I have contacted the cable directly to my pc and poof I have a connection any ideas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could possibly be motherboard issue if you have internet access for other devices then the problem clearly isn't on the routers end but pc and that would be something you would need to find out and good luck on that end😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DARKNESS Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 You say you have connection but that means nothing as you literally just said you have flicker on the connection so is it happening constantly or just randomly? Does it stop when your not connected to the R2? I would just hard reset the router at that point to fix any possible issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted June 15, 2023 Administrators Share Posted June 15, 2023 Were other devices getting internet from the R2 or was it just this PC not working? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it stop when your not connected to the R2? I would just hard reset the router at that point to fix any possible issues It’s hard to explain. When my r2 is connected up. I turn my pc on. I will get what looks like a globe if I don’t have a connection and a little what looks like a monitor if I have a connection not sure if it’s like that on all pc’s. So it will come on then go straight off then on again then off. So I have disconnected the r2 fully and now wired into my pc and it’s fine hope this explains Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DARKNESS Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 @liveandletdie34Hmm did you ever try unplugging and plugging it back in? Can't speak much for windows I haven't used it in a while but sometimes systems just have bugs especially Microsoft you always hear some security issue or windows crashing every couple of updates that the reason some people use different OS like Linux there even alternatives for a windows version which runs way better but everything comes with pros and cons Also you still hadn't answered whether you had internet access for other devices Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted June 15, 2023 Administrators Share Posted June 15, 2023 While connected to the router via the affected PC, open command prompt, type ipconfig press enter and then post a screenshot of the results here please.
