Netduma R3

The PS5 won't work either.. It does find the 5ghz from the NetdumaR3 and are connected to the router, but it cant connect to internet . 
"Can't obtain an IP address within the time limit"

I tried connecting it with the 2.4ghz, but it got disconnected from the internet while playing..

One of the phone also dropped out from the 5ghz .. but after "forgetting" the network, and reconnected again it worked again. 

This is a small apartment's where the router is placed in the middel. There are less then 5 meters from the router to any of the devices. Walls are  not concrete. No issues with any previous routers at all.

  • Torkild changed the title to Connection issues: computere can't find the Netduma 2,4ghz, PS5 connects to the router, but cant get IP (no internet)

Did install it the new firmware and did a factory reset.
The computere can't find the Netduma, and the PS5 won't connect to the Netduma at all now. 

"Connecting to access point" and "failed to obtain IP address within time limit 😔

The PS5 ain't showing up under "Device Manger" either.

Yes.  It's just the one computere with the  Asus PCE-N1511N-Wireless card and the PS5 that can't connect properly.  
After a reboot, i managed to get the PS5 to connect trough 2.4gz.   

The computer can still find 10-12 other wireless networks close by, but can't find the Netduma

@TorkildI had the same issue PS5 before never got to a fix a except just connecting it to lan I believe it something to do with the PS5 wifi module though I could be wrong 😂

Do you still have that issue with the WiFi?

@DARKNESS, That's strange. Just hooked up my IPS supplier's router (haven't used it) and the PS5  connected to the 5gz at once. 
Then i tried the old nighthawk r7000 I used for a while, no issues at all. Bummer.. I can't use cable on the kids PS5 or computere. It Christmas's times and gaming is on the menu. 
The PS5 seems to work okay ish on the 2.4 doh. So that's something. 🙃

Hi !

You can still use the R7000 as an access point if that allows you to have wifi on the PS5 and the old PC!

Plus it will give it a second life.

I did some research and did find others with the same WiFi card who had problems getting it to work with newer routers. As far as I can tell it was released sometime in 2011 and last driver update was 2015 so not sure how easy it'll be to do #2. I only found 3 potential solutions to this:

  1. Buying a newer WiFi adapter worked
  2. Rolling back the WiFi adapter in some cases works
  3. Disabling WiFi 6 on the router in some cases works

We don't have a WiFi 6 toggle on the router so from our end I'll make a request to get that added in the new year if possible.
