D-LINK DIR-625 / Randomly Losing Wireless Connectivity

Apr 4, 2011

I have a DIR-625 router that has been acting odd lately. Several times a day at random my devices (laptop, android phones, PS3) will lose internet connectivity from my wireless network. They say they are still connected to the network but I am unable to access the internet or even the router config page. Everything works fine on Wired LAN computers. The only way I can fix it is by unplugging the router for a few seconds. I have had the router for over a year now without this problem. Seems like it may have started when we got our android phones.

TP-Link 300Mbps Wireless :: WR841N / Losing Connection Randomly

Mar 2, 2013

Region : Latvia
Model : TL-WR841N
Hardware Version : V8
Firmware Version :
ISP : A/S Balticom

recently i bought wireless router TL-WR841N and there hasn't been a day or should i say few hours without restarting/turning on-off.I have cable(no modems,etc)Longest time it has ran without restarting was around 20hours.The problem is it RANDOMLY looses connection like this , but it's not the only problem , mostly when i leave computer and go to sleep or other business i leave router turner ON (no else have access to it and no one touches it), when i come back it just does not connect to internet, it shows that everything is fine , but i have no access to internet.This happens to all connected computers.I have dynamic ip I have russian version of windows xp sp3 , but i think everything is pretty understandable here. connection timed out/request timed out

Code:
Microsoft Windows XP [Версия 5.1.2600]
(С) Корпорация Майкрософт, 1985-2001.
C:Documents and SettingsГеоргий>ping -t [URL]

[code].....

FYI the problem is not in my computers(i tried setting up wireless networks from 2 different pc's) and i'm pretty sure it's not ISP's fault too(everything works fine through cable) , because this never happens with other wireless networks, etc.

Keep Losing Wireless Connectivity?

Mar 30, 2011

Noticed the last couple days that pages weren't loading on my laptop. Looked at the network status for the laptop and noticed that my network speeds would fluctuate from 54Mbps to 1Mbps, and various speeds in between. I had never had this happen before (I've had this router, a Linksys, for about 6 years). I thought maybe something was going on with the laptop. Grabbed my wife's laptop and she had the same issue. So, I checked the wired towers - their speeds are running at 100% all the time, no fluctuation. So, it has to be something with my router, but I'm not familiar with how to diagnose, etc. The router has a 3rd party firmware (DD-WRT) flashed on it, in case that matters. But I've had that on there about 4 years, nothing new. I've done a DHCP release and renew.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Brand New E4200 Losing Internet Connection Randomly

Jun 26, 2011

I have a brand new E4200 constantly losing internet connection (both wireless and wired). I have a ADSL connection to the internet, last router I had did not have the same issue. I also have a Cisco ASA 5505 for work connected to the ADSL modem and is not experiencing any disconnect issues. All computers connected to the router is losing internet connection, local lan keeps working. The internet connection gets back again after a 10-15 minutes or when resetting / turning off the router.
 
I have tried the following;

Changed ethernet cables
Disconnected the ASA 5505
Turned off wireless
Upgraded the firmware
Reseted to factory settings

Home Network :: Using A Netgear WG602 Wireless Router - PC And Iphone Randomly Losing Connection?

Jun 2, 2011

Currently using a netgear WG602 wireless router which i use to connect to my 2nd PC and Iphone, with the Netgear router running from my main PC.I have recently been having trouble with my 2nd PC ad Iphone randomly losing connection and the only way for the connection to be reastablished is to reboot the wireless router. Once rebooted i am able to connect again to the internet with no problems, interestingly enough my main PC never loses connection. Also sometimes when i lose my connection and reboot the wireless router i will have a IP conflict pop up on my 2nd PC however i would i say i get this once in every 10 dissconects and not all the time. Sometimes i won't dissconect at all in a day but sometimes i may dissconect 5-6 times.

Cisco Wireless :: WLC526 And Two AP521Clients Keep Losing Connectivity

Jun 24, 2012

I have a UC520 in a building with several IP phones.  We installed a WLC526 and two AP521's for seamless roaming of cordless phones.  THe phones work great with no issues.  When I am running a ping test on a wireless laptop, i keep loosing packets.  It looses connectivity randomnly.  DHCP is given via Windows 2008R2 server.  Have a cisco 2948 switch also in the mix.  THe AP's are connected directly to teh front of the UC520. Why do phones work perfectly and not data?

Cisco Wireless :: 1252AP Losing Network Connectivity

Sep 7, 2011

our autonomous 1252APs. It loses network connectivity irregularly and ends up disconnecting everyone. It may stay up from a few days to a few weeks. I don't see any log messages that give any clues to why it is doing this. We have 30 of these working worldwide (on the same software level and same config) and this is the only one having the problem.
 
Things I have tried: Changing software levels - there is a code level where it didn't seem to have this issue, but I can't run it because then I'm unable to monitor it in our monitoring system. Swapping out wireless access pointsRe-terminating the cable on the AP side, it was really difficult to get the network cable into the AP while swapping it outBlocking a company test piece of equipment from connecting using the mac address filtering (it connects with one of their test IPs - weird) – I still see it connecting though I don't see high utilization on the switch port when the issue happens I had a few cases open with TAC, and they were unable to find anything wrong - gave them sh techs of prior to the event and after the event. It was one of those where the tickets were open for a weeks with no updates.

Cisco Wireless :: WLC 5508 Implementation - Some Users Losing Connectivity

Dec 3, 2012

We are implementing a WLC infrastructure in our company following the below scenario:

- WLC 5508, OS 7.2
- APs AIR-LAP1142N-T-K9
- 3 Wlans (1Open w/ Web Auth, 1 WPA2 and 1 802.1x)
 
Issues:Everything seems to be fine, but some users loses connectivity (when connected to 802.1x network) at least 3 times by day.

- I cannot see anything at WLC logs concerning the association/deassociation of any of these users.

- Only strange line in the logs is "RADIUS server 172.21.44.50:1646 deactivated in global list" (authorization server config)

- Also I see some "Coverage hole pre alarm for client" but that doesn't look like a problem...

Cabling / Cards :: Belkin F5D8053 N Wireless USB Adapter Losing Connectivity?

May 18, 2011

I recently purchased a Belkin F5D8053 N Wireless USB Adapter after my 6 year old adapter was unable to see my home network in the network list.

I installed the software but the adapter wouldn't connect to my home network so I reinstalled and updated the driver, still wouldn't work. Finally about 2 hours later it just randomly connected. Now it has been frequently (1-2 times a day) losing connection to my home network for around 3 hours, it can see a dozen networks in the list with full signal strength but won't connect to any at all then connects to my home network again several hours later.

I have switched between the Windows connector and the Belkin one and tried all 6 USB slots with no luck. I contacted Belkin support and they told me to try the device on another computer and see if the problem still happens but I don't have another computer to test it with.

I suspect this is a problem with my Windows installation rather than the hardware or router as my old card would freeze once every couple of days and was only fixed by powering off my computer as Windows was unable to kill the process to restart it.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E3000 Losing Wi-Fi Connectivity On Multiple Device

Sep 7, 2010

Issue with Linksys E3000 router (firmware 1.0.02). I'm experiencing issues with the following wireless connections:
 
-iPhone 4G (wife's)
-iPod Touch 2G
-PC with wireless connection (non Linksys brand adapter)
-Acer NetBook (non Linksys brand adapter)
 
The issue is the connection gets interrupted and dropped, but the devices and the router DHCP clients table show the connections are still present. By interruption, I mean no data traffic is being transmitted.My wife's iPhone 4G and my son's iPod Touch wifi both show they are connected to the home network, complete with wifi bars being displayed, and the checkmark is present next to the home network connection in the the device settings for both. When I check the E3000 DHCP clients table, both Apple devices are listed as holding a connection. Yet both devices display network errors when trying to use any app that connects to the internet. By restarting the wifi connection on each, the connection is restored to the point where traffic now transmits. My wife and son estimate it is after about 10 minutes that they encounter the interruptions.
 
On the PC and NetBook, the connections have to be terminated and reconnected. I have not timed these to see how long before the connection becomes problematic.Interestingly, my ASUS laptop and my iPhone 4G do not have the issue, nor does my work laptop (Dell).There are no timeout parameters in the router config. Closest thing to it is the Beacon Interval, but I don't know which way to adjust it (up or down) to manage the devices that are experiencing interruptions. I have not made any interval adjustments...at this time, everything is set to default settings.This E3000 replaced an aging WRT54 (hardware v2) router so that I could have an N router in the house.

Keep Losing Internet Connectivity?

Aug 29, 2012

ISP : ShawPC >> SMC Modem/Router >> Netgear Router >> PS3 and Denon Stereo Receiver ( Both hardwired to Netgear Router), 2 Laptops and 2 Phones connected wireless- The reason I do not use the SMC as a router is because I was getting terrible wireless signal- When everything is working properly I am getting great speedsroblem : I keep losing internet connectivity. On the wireless devices I still have have great signal strength but no connectivity. I need to run netgear genie oripconfig/release/renew to get it back. It always comes back but this is annoying.It also does this on the PS3 and Denon which are hardwired to the router..as with the other ones if I reset the router or do a connection test on the PS3 it will fix it. Finds IP but no internet connectivity.My PC has also started to lose connectivity and I need to do a ip release/renew and it comes back fine.The fact that this is happeneing on my PC would lead me to believe that it may be an issue with the Modem/router. Are there some settings I need to change on it since I am only using it for modem purposes? I have disabled the wireless on it but I don't think that would be the issue anyways

Losing Connectivity Every Couple Of Hours / Modem Or Router?

Sep 19, 2012

I have an issue with my current network where every couple of hours I will lose my connectivity and it will not come back unless I do a power cycle on my router/modem. I originally thought the issue was with my router, however I'm beginning to think it's an issue involving the modem. I've tried two different routers and this happens on both. My main router is a D-Link WBR-1310 (crap I know but it was free) and has lasted for years, and my modem is a Toshiba PCX2500 from Time Warner Cable. The second router I used to test this was an older Linksys BEFW11S4. I was going to replace my router, but when I saw that both of them reset after a few hours (today was only 5, last night it was connected for over 8 hours as I slept). I ran an IPCONFIG /ALL when I was connected with internet and when I was connected without and the only three changes were: [code]

Network fixes I have attempted from the OS level so far include:

~ Switching the dynamic port range to start at 10,000 and run for approximately 54,000 ports

~ Systematically reviewing every running service to make certain that only the essential ones are on

~ Disabling all NIC stacks except Client for Microsoft Networks, IPv4, File and Printer Sharing and Comodo

~ Attempted connections with Comodo turned completely off and its NIC driver disabled

~ Attempted rolling back the RealTek driver to an earlier one from the same family and device line

Using netsh I have tried the following settings:

~ netsh winsock reset catalog
~ netsh int ipv4 reset reset.log
~ netsh int ipv6 reset reset.log
~ netsh int tcp set global rss=enabled

Wifi Network Adapter Randomly Gets Limited Connectivity And Freezes?

Apr 25, 2013

I'm having a really annoying problem which is making my laptop almost unusable and a hassle to use. After a while of my laptop being on, my wireless network adapter will suddenly get "limited connectivity", and won't connect to the internet.Disabling and enabling the adapter will cause my computer to freeze, requiring a restart. The same with troubleshooting. The only thing which fixes this is a fresh reboot, however it always occurs again within the hour.Sometimes the entire adapter will randomly just disable itself, and the computer will completely freeze, meaning I have to press the power on/off. Sometimes the adapter will just disappear from Device Manager. Searching for "plug and play" devices will cause it to freeze.

Apart from having to reboot, what also seems to work is disabling the wifi from PC Settings, putting the computer to sleep, then awaking it and turning wifi back on. I've had to do that 6 times whilst typing this post.I've tried flushing my dns, registering it, renewing and releasing. Assigning a static DNS address. All those things. Though I may have done them wrong.Operating system: Originally came with Windows 7 64bit installed, issue began on this.I installed Windows 8 64bit Pro a month ago, did not reset settings. Problem persists[CODE]

D-Link DIR-655 :: Keeps Losing Connection Through Wireless?

Mar 5, 2011

It seems to happen only when connected through our rooms or through wireless.  When I connect directly to the router I don't lose connection.  The router is downstairs and it routes the wired connection through a switch.  So when routing through the switch or using wireless the connection is lost and re-connects about every 30 seconds to 1 minute.  When directly connected it works fine.  I've reset the router and reset all settings twice and nothing.  I'm using 10/100.  Not sure if any of this matters. I have also updated the firmware to 1.35NA.  PPPOE password and username are correct as they have been given by our ISP.  Any settings I should be aware of?  Everything is pretty much default.  All I do is setup the internet connection and then setup a wireless connection.  Are we overloading the system maybe? I've also changed the password a few times as well.  Seems like the logs fill up really fast. Keep getting blocked UDP and TCP packets from different addresses.

D-Link DIR-615 :: Losing Wireless Network After A Few Hours?

D-Link DIR-615 :: Losing Wireless Connections To Devices?

Feb 5, 2012

My Dlink router has been working fine until recently.  The only changes I made was to try to put time limits on my kids' devices, through Tools->Schedules and Advanced-> access control. Things worked Ok, but I soon realized I had to reserve each kids' device DHCP number, or so I thought(?)  Anyhow, now I seem to have to log into my dlink router weekly as their wireless connection stops each week.  Not sure if it affects the non-reserved wireless devices. Not sure what's happening or what I did wrong.  Running the following: DIR615 hardware Version B2 Firmware 2.25 Under DHCP Server settings: Enable DHCP server - checked Addrss range 192.168.0.100 to 192.169.0.199   Note - reserved ips in that range Lease time 1440 minutes Always broadcast - checked rest blank NetBIOS type Mixed mode.

D-Link DIR-655 :: Keep Losing Wireless Setup On Firmware 2.00NA

Oct 2, 2011

In the last two weeks I've been losing wireless connectivity at least once a day.  Today it occurred twice.  The way that I resolve the problem is by wireing-up, loggin into the router and essentially just resaving the wireless settings (url...) without changing them. Then I'm good to go for about 12 hours.

D-Link DIR-655 :: Not Broadcasting Wireless / Losing Internet Connection

Oct 25, 2011

I bought a DIR-655 about 8 months ago. I had no problems connecting to the internet for the first couple of months. Then I would get a random connection problem where I would reset my modem or the router and all would be fine for a while. Then about a month and a half ago it started getting worse and worse and about 3 weeks ago it got to a point that I was resetting the router or modem daily to get a initial connection to the internet. And that would last until the next day when we would try to access the internet. Ocassionally, if I had a good initial connection, I would get a random loss of the connections a minute or two after I started surfing the web. Initially a modem or router reset would clear this up too. This happening both over wireless and through the hard wired connection. So it doesn't matter how I am using the Router. AND, most recently resets may not even get me a solid connection to the internet. So, I have bypassed the router for now.

The router was set up with changes to only passwords, network name, a changed router IP address and not broadcasting the wireless it has worked fine. After the reset, I left the router IP address as the default but changed the above security settings. Nothing else was changed. I have never had any issues logging into the router menus through the default or my defined IP addresses.

In doing some troubleshooting, I performed a reset on the modem several times, none of which resolved the problem, I was still losing the connection. Then I bypassed the router and did a direct connection to the modem and all is good and I have not had a connection issue since. I even tried changing the Ethernet connection on the back of the home computer to a different computer port but that changed nothing. I am currently trying a different cable. I am using the standard connection scheme:Cable from outside to modem, modem to router via Ethernet into the proper router port, Router to static computer via Ethernet. And a laptop accesses through the wireless. All cables have been working fine and are home built CAT 5e cables

It is really frustrating and I am not sure where to start now. Currently, I am running without the router for internet but I need it for the wireless to a laptop in another room. I use Time Warner Cable and have a Atlantic Scientific DPC2100 cable modem.

TP-Link ADSL2+ Wireless :: TD-W8970 Freezes Randomly

Mar 24, 2013

Region : Italy
Model : TD-W8970
Hardware Version : V1
Firmware Version : 0.6.0 1.2 v000c.0 Build 130201 Rel.54921n
ISP : Infostrada

My TD-W8970 freezes randomly, sometimes several times a day, sometimes less, but now the problem it's more frequent and I suppose it could be generated by some internal component that could have a abnormal behavior.Anyway, this happens in different situations, either using all the functionalist, or being only on and in idle state. Last time was few minutes ago, when all the system were shuttled down and only router was on.

TP-Link ADSL2+ Wireless :: TD-W8960N Disconnect Randomly

Feb 14, 2013

Region : UnitedStates
Model : TD-W8968
Hardware Version : V4
Firmware Version : 1.1.1 Build 120912 Rel.67406
ISP : centurylink
Region : UnitedStates
Model : TD-W8960N
Hardware Version : V4
Firmware Version : 1.1.1 Build 120912 Rel.67406
ISP : centurylink

First a bit of background. At the end of December, my centurylink modem finally had enough problems with disconnects(was 6 or 7 years old), and Centurylink sent out a new router/modem. The new modem/router, a Zyxel, worked great, and all was good in my house hold. Then I got the bill and found out that unlike the previous modem they had sent me, this one I was paying a lease payment for. At which point I returned the Zyxel which gave us the best service we'd ever had, and bought this TD-W8960N. The reviews were glowing, setup was easy, but we started rather quickly to have disconnects. A call was made to Centurylink and they confirmed service was working, and since the modem/router was not theirs, referred us back to you. I called and after considerable time on the phone, all I was basically told to do was a hard reset to the modem. When the unit finished booting back up, internet was restored. Of course it was restored everytime we reset it for a while. At that point I was told that since the unit was working, that there was nothing left to be done. Since that time, it has disconnected us from time to time, and then in the last 2 days, sometimes it won't stay connected for more than a couple of minutes. My wife is very unhappy-she is a gamer, and a disconnecting internet is very very bad for an online gamer.

It seems that the further it gets away from a hard reset,the more it disconnects. After 6 soft resets (unplugging) today, I had to do another hard reset to get back on to register here and post this message. Is this a known problem for this unit? Is there a fix for this unit? Or, do I just need to return it to Newegg and try another manufacturer?

Again, the "leased" Zyxel gave us no problems for the month or so that we used it.

ISP : TPG

I've got a problem with the wireless dropping out randomly. It may take a week before it stops or a couple of hours. I originally thought my microwave oven was swamping the signal when we used it so I relocated the router much further away but this hasn't changed anything. I can still log in to the router from a computer on the wired ports and reboot the router. It also thinks the wireless is working but everything looses connection to it. We have 3 laptops and 4 phones that use the wireless and they all cannot connect when it goes down. This is only a new device - less than 6 months?

Wireless D-Link DWA-525 Network Adapter Randomly Stopped Working On Desktop?

Sep 10, 2012

The other day I went to a friends house, came back home, booted up my PC, and my wireless network adapter wasn't working. I've tried everything to fix it.It's a D-Link DWA-525 802.11n Wireless PCI netowrk adapter. On device manager it just says 802.11 Wireless LAN Card with a yellow exclamation next to it. And when I check what the error is, it's either error 31 or 52 at different times, depending what I've tried to do to fix it.I tried downloading the driver for it off the D-Link website, nothing happens at all when I install it. I tried taking it out of my computer and plugging it in. I tried enabling it and disabling it on device manager.I noticed one thing, when it's in my computer the green light at the back that says activity next to it isn't on.

TP-Link Dual-Band Wireless :: WDR4300 - One Computer Losing Internet Frequently After Firmware Upgrade

Jan 23, 2013

Region : Canada
Model : TL-WDR4300
Hardware Version : V1
Firmware Version : 3.13.23 Build 121225
ISP : Rogers

Ever since upgrading my firmware from 120426 to the latest(121225), one of my computer(windows xp, TP-link Nano) is frequently losing internet connectivity.I purchased the router a month ago and firmware 120426 was the version that came installed. The router would stop working about 3-4 times a week, requiring me to reboot it. Because of this I did some research online and found out about version 121225 which supposedly should improve performance and stability. After the firmware upgrade today I noticed that one of my computer is having a lot of trouble maintaining internet connectivity for more than 30 minutes. When checking wireless connectivity it would say that I am connected and that the signal strength is excellent. I'm also able to ping 8.8.8.8 but not www.google.com(I've tried ipconfig /flushdns and it doesn't solve the problem). I also have trouble accessing or pinging the router(192.168.0.1) with this computer.

TP-Link 300Mbps Wireless :: TL-WR1043ND Stops Working Randomly And Requires Power Recycle

Dec 3, 2012

Region : Argentina
Model : TL-WR1043ND
Hardware Version : v1
Firmware Version :
ISP :

Region : UnitedStates
Model : TL-WR1043ND
Hardware Version : v1
Firmware Version : 3.13.12 Build 120405 rel 33996n
ISP : Verizon Fios

(My router says Version 1.9).Had this router about a month. It works fine. Using it in Wireless mode wpa2 security. Get excellent speeds. HOWEVER> It freqently drops connectivity and fails to allow wireless clients to connect at all. (You can see the SSID via wireless clients, but not connect to it). To restore it, I have to disconnect from Power, wait a moment, then reconnect to power. It recycles and connections are working again with no problems (UNTIL NEXT TIME). Seems to happen every few days.

I checked the web site and I appear to have the most current firmware.I have a Trendnet router on different channels in another part of the house which has never had this problem. I disconnected it to test if it was somehow involved, but the TP-Link router had same symptoms when it (trendnet) was not connected. Our Actiontec Router (VERIZON provides this as base connectin to them serving the Cable TV DVRs also) ) has its wireless disabled and is the DHCP server provider to the home network. DHCP is disabled on the TP Link.

D-Link DIR-655 :: Connectivity Between Wired / Wireless Through UPNP?

Jun 24, 2012

My Dlink DIR-655 is hardware ver B1 and firmware 2.00.  I found the UPNP cannot cross between wired and wireless network.    It is fine if both UPnP server and renderor are on either network.  There is no problem on other protocol, such as SAMBA from my notebook connected via Wireless to the QNAP NAS connected via Wired to the 655.
