DanologyUK Posted March 5, 2024 Share Posted March 5, 2024 My PC (which does not have a statically assigned IP) and is connected via an unmanaged switch to the router, keeps losing connection (Twice today so far). I can connect to the router on my mobile when the PC is offline (which also doesnt have a static IP assigned) and restart the router and it then brings the connection back to my PC. The last time it happened, i grabbed the logs. I lost access at 14:27 Is this a "known issue"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted March 5, 2024 Administrators Share Posted March 5, 2024 The only other thing in the log is about DHCP so could you try giving the PC a static/reserved IP and see if that helps please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
