WRT54GL Router Drops Wi-Fi Connections Frequently

Mar 6, 2013

I have a WRT54GL that I bought about 2 months ago, and I've had nothing but problems with the wi-fi since I started using it. It works as normal about 90% of the time, but usually 50+ times per day, I won't be able to connect to the router wirelessly (with ANY device, no matter how close I am to the router) for 1 to 2 minutes. The fact that I can't connect to the router with ANY devices during these times leads me to believe that the problem lies with the router itself. Another thing to note is that the wired connection to the router works just fine during these wireless outages.

I've tried changing channels and upgrading the firmware, but nothing has changed. Did I just get a bad router?

Wireless Connection Drops And Picks Up Frequently

Sep 8, 2012

I am trying to track down a problem I am having with one laptop. Other wireless devices on the network are not showing the same problem. Connecting to the router by ethernet resolves the problem.Over a 120 second period, the wireless connection drops and reconnects several times. Each time it drops it almost immediately picks up and re-connects. The "down time" is usually between 5 and 20 seconds.I have updated the driver for the wireless card (it was out of date) but this did not resolve.

Reading posts here - I see you typically need to see a WiFi inspector screen shot - which I have attached. You can see a couple of "drops" on the graph.

Dell Laptop Drops Wireless Frequently?

Jun 15, 2011

[CODE]Some supplemental information--Several months ago, I changed internet service from Dish Network/Wild Blue to Frontier which bundled Internet, Phone, and TV services together. With Dish, I had a Linksys router. Now I have the router that Frontier came and installed. Ever since, this Dell laptop drops wireless constantlyMy other laptop has no problems. I also take this laptop to work and use it wirelessly with NO problems.

D-Link DIR-655 :: Frequently Drops All Wireless Access

Mar 31, 2012

since getting a DIR-655, and I've had random loss of wireless access at least once a day, sometimes 2-3 times a day.While browsing around the settings looking for a way to increase the DHCP lease times I noticed the expiration times were way in the past. Like January 1970 or some such. Then I looked around and saw that date/time for the router was wrong. ("Current Router Time"). So i set up Enable NTP Server (Tools->Time->AUTOMATIC TIME CONFIGURATION).Ever since doing that I haven't had a single loss of wireless connectivity.  Rock solid.  For weeks now.

Cisco Routers :: RV220W WAN Connection Drops Frequently?

Apr 14, 2011

I'm on firmware 1.0.0.26 and I'm seeing frequent drops in the WAN connection. Most network clients don't notice the drop because it reconnects, but the X11 windows server running over a VPN drops the session and I have to re-establish it. Also, at the same time I experience a 15-20 second silence gap on my VoIP phone connected to vonage (not over VPN). Never happened on my Linksys router, but it happens many times a day on the rv220w. When the drop happens I get the errors listed below in the router log:

Linksys Wireless Router :: E1000 Drops All Connections Every 30-60 Minutes?

Aug 26, 2012

I recently bought a refurbished E1000 wireless router from Amazon, and from the first day I've had recurring connection issues with it. Every half hour or so it will lose all of its connections (wireless and ethernet) and requires a hard reset. After resetting, all connections are good for a little while but then the problem occurs again. When plugged directly into my modem (Motorola SB6121), my internet access is completely fine.
 
The router has the latest firmware as far as I know (2.1.02 build 5 May 6, 2011), and I've tried to change several settings (MTU to 1400, Fragmentation Threshold to 2306, etc) but to no avail.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 Constantly Drops Connections

Sep 5, 2011

My E4200 seems to be dropping connections throughout the day.  For wireless it'll still show full signal and connection, but there will be no internet activity for about a minute.  Then after a minute things will work just fine again. For wired I notice it in my XBox mainly when I get dropped from games as constant as the wireless drops.I believe my modem isn't the problem since the old router never dropped connections on the hard wired devices.  Occasionally my old D-Link router would drop wireless, but never this frequent,I am running 1.0.02.  I've rebooted the router/modem several times.  I even reinstalled the entire setup with the current version of Cisco Connect as the tech person suggested, but still no luck.  The first week or so using this router was flawless, but ever since then it's been dropping connections several times throughout the day to any device connected (wireless or wired).  The problem seems that the router just hiccups the connection very quickly, so quickly that Windows doesn't even recognize the connection has been lost, but long enough to drop a multiplayer game on XBox or to have me mashing refresh on my internet browsers.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E3200 Drops Connections After Firmware Upgrade?

Jun 5, 2012

I have a E3200 and upgraded the firmware last weekend to 1.0.0.4 and now I get dropped connections every few minutes.  I was working form home and VPN into a west coast client and was getting dosconnected every few minutes so I thought it was possibly their VPN but when I checked my outloook it was also disconnected and is not associated with their VPN.  I called Comcast and they said the modem has been online for 19 days so now everything points to the router.

D-link Dir-655 :: Router Drops All Connections Once Connected Via Wifi To Specific Notebook

Jan 9, 2012

My 655 router (RevB, Firmware 2.03) is connected from one side to a DSL modem and on the side to  two wired PC's and via wi-fi to several other wireless clients (two smart phones and two notebooks). All is well until I try to connect a specific notebook. Connection is estabished for about 30sec and then the router drops ALL connections (including internet and local network!) and I must re-start him by un-plugging from power. This phenomena is specific to a specific notebook since with the other one

Linksys Wireless Router :: E1200 Drops Connections At Random Intervals

Jun 29, 2012

Router is connected to my ISP with the option Keep alive and redial value of 20 seconds (the lowest i can set). There are two distinct problems: Router drops connections at random intervals. It can happen once a day or several times a day. It always happens overnight (so every morning it isn't connected). This doesn't seem to be related to ISP as direct connection to computer is stable.The Keep alive option isn't working. When it drops connection it isn't trying to re-eastablish it for at least 2 minutes (the longest i have waited so far, 6 times the redial value configured). Producing external traffic (e.g. constant pinging of some host by IP address, refreshing some web page) doesn't work. When i log on to admin console (browser based) simply clicking connect button brings connection back online. I've even been looking at status page constantly refreshing to see if it ever made a single attempt and it appears it didn't.I did my "homework" before posting (upgraded FW to 2.0.02 build 3, finetuned MTU).

Linksys Wireless Router :: E 2000 Drops All Connections When Connected With 4th Wire

Sep 2, 2011

The router works fine until I plug the 4th wire in the back, which goes to a 2nd desktop computer, then it is only a matter of time until the router drops all internet connections including the direct wire to desktop #1, wireless, and the other two wires.This is my 2nd e2000 router since Amazon replaced the first one after about 4 months as it was having the same problem.

2wire 2701hg-b Wireless Drops Connections?

May 26, 2011

I have a 2wire 2701hg-b wireless router/DSL modem. Every once in awhile, my wireless devices all lose their connection to the router at the same time. I believe the problem is internal to the router/modem as all my wireless devices' connections are dropped at the same time AND I can only get them connected once I disable and then re-enable the wireless on the router. The problem seems to only affect wireless devices as all my wired devices remain connected and my Internet connection remains intact as well.

Cisco Wireless :: WAP200E Access Point Drops Connections

Aug 18, 2012

I purchased a Linksys WAP200E Wireless-G Exterior Access Point – PoE and a HGA9N (9dBi) High Gain Omni-Directional Antenna through CDW Canada about three (3) years ago in April/2009. The first year it worked great and gave complete coverage throughout the Campground. The second year it started to become increasing less coverage and now in the third year, it has very poor coverage. I have purchased and installed a new Microcom HG2415U-PRO (15dBi) HyperGain Outdoor Omni Directional Antenna. This has NOT made any improvement so I am now thinking that the WAP200E Access Point is the faulty equipment. I have changed the channel to number 11 and still no improvement. The Signal Strength is only Good and then dropping to Fair and sometimes no signal at all. This is from a line of sight location that is only 60 yards (180 feet or 54.9 metres) away. There are no objects between the Antenna and the computer.

Cisco Firewall :: ASA5505 Ver 8.2.1 Connection Drops And Loss Of Connections

Apr 18, 2011

I just recently purchased a Cisco ASA 5505 ASA ver 8.2. I run a teamspeak server/ssh/dns and domain on the same server on the network. Before I switched to the asa, I have a regular DGL-4100 that ran with no issues. I have noticed that the connections are very unstable and disconnect frequently and when they do they take 1 to 5 minutes to be able to reconnect. I have done some cisco IOS but am fairly new to this. [code]

TP-Link 150Mbps Wireless :: TL-WR741ND Drops All Connections (wired And Wireless)

Mar 31, 2013

Region : Argentina
Model : TL-WR741ND
Hardware Version : V4
Firmware Version : 3.16.4 Build 130205 Rel.63090n
ISP : Fibertel

My TL-WR741ND is about 1 year and a half old, it was working fine until about 2 weeks ago. I need to reset it, times between resets is not consistent, meaning, it can take 30 minutes, or 8 hours, but it needs to be reset. Right now, there are 2 wired connections (PS3 and Desktop PC) and 7 wireless (4 cell phones, 2 notebooks and 1 netbook). 1 of the notebooks has static IP, and it also has a VM running, with another static IP. Also some port forwarding simply stopped working (ports 80 and 1180), the rest of the ports work flawlessly, but trying to forward the port 80 and 1180 (to the 2 static ips) won't work. I already upgraded the firmware, and the problem persists, also changed the channel (from 6 to 1, and then from 1 to 11).

Installing dd-wrt/openwrt/gargoyle or anything like that, is not an option. The only reason why I bough t this router, was because I could use dd-wrt, I installed it 1 year and a half ago, and it simply sucked, the wireless bandwidth was non existent, and it was a headache. I installed it again last week, to see if it could be a solution, and I was not even able to save changes in the control panel. I need a real solution, and installing a firmware that works only on chrome is not an option (specially when I use Firefox, and I needed to install chromium just to erase dd-wrt)

TP-Link 3G/3.75G Router :: TL-MR3040 Gets Disconnects Frequently?

Apr 17, 2013

Region : India
Model : TL-MR3040

I am using TP Link 3040 V1 and whenever I am using it with my IDEA 3G dongle model no E1732 it keep on getting disconnected after 15-20 mins.

When i restart the router again it works fine for another 15-20 mins and then again disconnects.

When I use the dongle directly in my laptop it works fine without disconnecting. So the issue is not in the Idea dongle but in the router.

Cisco Firewall :: SSH Stops Frequently - 891W Router

Nov 6, 2012

Over the weekend this router was put into production.  SSHv2 is configfured and was working fine.  Due to some circumstances, we had to avoid configuring any zone-pairs that included the self zone.  This of course left the router open somewhat.  SSH was secured but of course a few IP's from poorly regulated parts of the world spent the weekend trying to brute force log into the router.  No luck it seems. Anyway, SSH continjued working, then we set up self zone-pairs (out to self and self to out).  As ssh can't be Inspected, we did a pass log for each direction.  This worked for a bit, then SSH just stopped working.  I've seen this happen on 891W's in the lab here too, so is not something perhaps done by some unseen DoS attack or something.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E2500 Frequently Disconnects From Internet?

Mar 20, 2012

My Linksys E2500 wireless router frequently interrupts the connection to my ISP. This happens about 2 times an hour. The connections is - due to the automatic reconnect feature - only interrupted for about 20-30 seconds, but is quite unnerving, as it causes downloads to stop, streams to freeze and website loading failures. The reason I know that the connection is interrupted completely is that my IP address changes every time it happens. I know the failure is not on my ISPs side, since the connection does not interrupt when I connect my PC directly to my DSL-Modem (Siemens C2-010-I). The router runs the newest available firmware (1.0.04 build 1 Dec 26, 2011)

Cisco Switching/Routing :: 1841 - Router's LAN Facing Interface Becomes Up / Down Frequently

Nov 14, 2011

We have a 1841 Cisco router for one of our remote sites and we have the GRE over IPSec tunnel on it (with our datacenter router) for the connectivity. The LAN facing interface becomes UP/Down (status 'UP', Protocol 'Down'). When I login the router and 'shut' and then 'no shut' the interface, the interface becomes UP and everything starts to work. Traffic starts to flow across it. But after some time, some hours or sometimes some days, the interface is again back to up/down status. The router is connected to  a non-Cisco switch. I do see some CRC's increasing very slowly, but apart from that there seems nothing wrong with the interface in sho int fas0/0 command:
 
!
RTR01#sho int fas0/0
FastEthernet0/0 is up, line protocol is down
Hardware is Gt96k FE, address is 0026.cb91.ee48 (bia 0026.cb91.ee48)

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54G Signal Frequently Disconnects Then Recovers Automatically

I have a LinkSys WRT54G Wireless-G Broadband Router located in my basement office. My IBM T42 ThinkPad running Windows XP Pro has an Intel(R) PRO Wireless 2200BG Network Connection adaptor. The signal strength on the main floor of our townhouse is ~ 80%. My problem is the signal frequently disconnects then recovers automatically causing frustration when browsing the internet. My question: Should I upgrade to a new Wireless N router OR purchase a WiFi Range Extender? since my laptop has a Wireless-G adaptor would a Wireless-N router provide a stronger signal?

Upgrade To N Router / AP With Wrt54gl As Hub?

Jul 6, 2012

I just buy a simple hub and keep my wrt54gl as my router or should I put the money toward a wireless N router (or AP) for the better range and use the wrt54gl as my hub?I currently have my wrt54gl as my one and only router.It gives me good range indoors, but I would prefer to get better range outside, if possible. Right now I get range out about 50 feet around the outside of the house but I would prefer that to double, if not more.At the same time, however, I need to move the router to the basement to better facility my network. Obviously, this will affect the wireless range.I have considered DD-WRT, but not sure it will work much from the basement.So, I have considered two options.One, I could keep my router where it is and just get a simple hub and stick it in the basement.Obviously this is the least expensive option, but it doesn't improve the current router's range, although I could try DD-WRT. The other option is I could use the money I would put toward the hub and, instead, upgrade to a wireless N router or AP and move the wrt54gl to the basement to serve as my hub.
