My Archer c20 v4 randomly connects and disconnects and doesn't stream media properly
Hi,
I am facing a strange issue since a few weeks. I am using Archer C20 v4 with Alliance broadband in India.
My internet is randomly disconnecting. The internet LED glows green, but internet doesn't work. Streaming media is a pain, and most of the live broadcasts fail to run continuously and buffer all the time. This also happens randomly, not like all the time.
Recently, I purchased the Mi smart TV stick and connected it to Internet through the router's WiFi. It failed to run properly and always keeps disconnecting or buffering. The speed of my connection is rated at 60 mbps and it does display the same results on Speedtest or Fast.com. Youtube runs smoothly. But streaming media or live broadcasts do not work properly.
Then I tried to switch to mobile hotspot (to connect to the Mi TV stick) through my Realme X2 and it worked wonderfully. Without any hiccups at all.
On my PC and laptop, the WiFi network keeps interrupting as described before.
I also keep receiving this message:
Recv no OFFER, DHCP Service unavailable |
Please note that my internet service provider (Alliance) gave me static IP addresses.
When I try to log in to 192.168.0.1, it would sometimes display the error that the page has failed to load. I simply cannot enter the router's login page to check or configure my router. This also happens randomly, not continuously.
I was suspicious that my Mi TV stick is faulty, but now I am 100% sure that this problem is happening from the router's end. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks.
