Re: RBR20 disconnect when DHCP allocates IP address

williefriends · ‎2020-12-14

Internet connection on wifi drops frequently. The timing always coincides with a message in the log - [DHCP IP: 192.168.1.3] to MAC address xxxxx

I have tried every single way in this forum, i.e. updated firmware, tick off Daisy-chain, etc, but the problem still continues. I also allocate each device with a static ip address but Orbi just keeps doing this DHCP thing every 10-15 mins or so.

Does anyone have the same problem and got it fixed? Thanks!!

What is the device at .1.3?

What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?

Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update?

Are these "static IP's" (a) set on the devices themselves in their network setup, or (b) in the Orbi LAN Setup page?
