TD-W8960N Problems
Region : Canada
Model : TD-W8960N
Hardware Version : V3
Firmware Version : 1.4.0 Build 111108 Rel.40398n
ISP : VIF INTERNET (www.vif.com)
Hi and sorry for my bad english. i'll try to do my best.
Few months before, my wife's laptop got some WI-FI Issues. It sometimes going offline and goes back online few minutes after (my Wireless is not visible on my 2 laptops when it does that)... I updated the firmware and it did'nt changed anything... it disconnects randomly and reconnect alone... if not, i have to reboot it !
i have this ADSL modem/wireless router for 3 years, probably more! and recently (3 or 4 months before), forgiving wireless problems on my wife's new computer i bought a wireless usb key (a TP LINK TOO) and the problem still the same... I had a gift at christmas, a BLACKBERRY PLAYBOOK 16GB EDITION and the wireless disconnects frequently.. and in other computers too... More than in the past months... so i begin to think that this Unit is probably done for a trash ride!
Also, my ADSL CONNECTION is doing the same... in some streaming (Netflix, Youtube and more), (with a PC who's connected with a lan cable) it goes FullSpeed... and then BANG all stops for 3 to 8 seconds... leds stops to blink, all stay on, no reboot, no INTERNET or ADSL lost... nothing! and then BANG it comes back again and the streaming is back ! It does the same on big downloads (750MB ISO'S for testing)... or other downloads.
My provider checked all the settings (who have'nt been changed for 3 years) and all seems to be Okay for him.. i got to work hard to make him check the settings because he told me that this device was'nt the one they rent (or sale) but the interface still the same, they rent some TP LINK too!! so all seems to be okay for them. Connection is ok, line is clean, signals are good (6mbps on copper lines) etc.
Hope you'll be able to help me because i love this device... and i hope that's not the end of this TP LINK device... he's not hot, always been at the same place, no new devices around him who could do some interference or other things... i got all the same setup for 3 years...
Wireless problems began past year. they got worst for the past month. and the ADSL problem that i described a lil'bit higher on this topic began the past month too.
Thanks a lot if you can help me with this!
a TP LINK lover!
