(logs) Internet going out once a day
Every day I get one time where the internet comes in and out, Ive talked to my isp they said its not from them and it might be due to something with the firewall in the router setting off the dos att...
FOUND THE SOLUTION turn off ddos protection on the router it was giving false reports and causing a issue. I'm haven't had a problem since my last comment on the thread! and that's unheard of before I would have had at least once a day now none!
I just looked at my logs and mine are the same. Same weird attack and I too experience my connection throughout the house dropping. First noticible on my Google Nest Hub. I see it trying to connect to network a few times a day.
Setup: XR1000 (running latest firmware), ARRIS SURFboard SB8200 DOCSIS 3.1, Gigabit Connection via COX
I've factory reset this thing at least twice in the last 3 days. I've checked internet connect without the router and it's perfectly fine. No drops on my PC to Modem connection. But as soon as I plug the XR1000 back in...everything is fine for about 30 mins or and then randomly devices disconnect.
In my home a good indicator that it's happening is again is the:
Google Nest Hub (needing to reconnecting)
Logitech Harmony Hub (green light goes red indicating internet goes down)
My Samsung Note10+ (Wifi-6 icon goes away and is blinking and then showing 5G)
Wife's Ipad 11 Pro (everything shows no connection)
What's weird in this as well is I have three ROKU devices and none of them appear to loose connection while streaming.
I've tried a series of things,
SmartConnect On, MIMO off, OFDMA On (2.5, 5g)
SmartConnect On, MIMO On, OFDMA Off (2.5, 5g)
SmartConnect Off, MIMO Off, OFDMA On (2.5, 5g)
SmartConnect Off, MIMO Off, OFDMA Off (2.5, 5g)
All end up in the same result...$350 Connection killer.
Are you on the very latest firmware .44?
I am yes. When I first got mine around Oct 4th it downloaded and installed that update on initial setup.
- Give your devices reserved IPs in LAN settings and see if that helps please.
I can definitely say that won't help. That's normally how I configure my routers. I commonly do this since I actually keep an eye on what's using the most bandwidth in the house (old days before discovering DumaOS).
