Jul 02, 2022RAXE500 mobile app shows Internet Offline
This recently started happening to me last night.
I have the RAXE500 since Jan 2022, and haven't had any issues until last night. My TV kept disconnecting from the wifi, my sons Nintendo Switch's connectivity started slowing down. I checked the mobile app and it shows Internet as offline, then a few minutes later it went to online, then back to offline.
I rebooted the router, still same issue. Then I rebooted the Frontier ONT, that helped for about a few hours then the router went back to displaying offline, then online, then offline.
I tried rebooting the Frontier ONT again, this time to no avail. It just keeps going into an offline, online, offline cycle.
While the mobile app tells me that its offline, I however can access the Internet using hardwire as well as wireless. The only issue I have is my smart TV will not connect to the wifi and it is slow for gaming.
My download/upload speed from Frontier is supposed to be 500/500MB, I am currently getting 500MB/4MB.
