Nighthawk R8500 down after one device connects to the guest network
When a device connects to the guest wifi, it brings down the entire network and nothing can connect, neither wifi, nor ethernet. The same problem was already described here: https://community.ne...
Interesting. But still uzzling.
This looked odd to me:
[OPENVPN] NTP sync time failed
I have no idea what it means. But it might offer some areas for experimentation.
Are you using OPENVPN?
I don't use VPN actively, it is just configured for the case "if needed" and it seems to work.
I turned it off, but with the guest network the same behaviour. To be more accurate: the phone indicates with the icon that it has connected to the guest network, but as soon as I open a browser and try to load a page, so the router resets itself (so e.g. the streamed music, that I started before on my wired desktop, stops, and I can't access router admin interface).
