XR300 Keeps Rebooting

[jgkhgk]

Good afternoon,

My router keeps rebooting every couple of hours and sometimes minutes. i lose all connection both wifi and ethernet.

The router turns off all the white lights except this amber light on the power LED.

I have tried factory reset and installing a previous firmware. i just can't seem to fix this issue.

Ive had this router for about a year and half without issues but now i don't know why its giving me so much trouble.

PIC: image i captured right beofre it rebooted.

Firmware Version

1.0.3.68_10.3.50

The first thing to do would be to upgrade to the latest firmware and then factory reset the XR300 afterwards. Let us know if you're still experiencing this issue afterwards.

So the router was back up and running when i factory reset it but now its back to rebooting into the amber light again. it was fine for about two days.

Could you please try changing the DHCP range to start from .50, then reserve IP addresses for devices that are disconnecting from .2 to .49. Such that devices on your network have IP addresses outside of the DHCP pool.

After that, reboot the router from the interface and see if you're still having the same issue.

how would i go about doing this in dumaos?

[Netduma-Fraser]

On the interface go to Settings > LAN Settings and you can do so from there

The only option i was able to find was this on settings. i apologize for the little red censor im not sure wether or not tha should be private.

Change the 'Starting IP address' to be 192.168.1.50.

Then, under setup -> LAN Setup, reserve IP addresses for each device. Make sure the address you give them is between .2 and .49.
