Model: Deco M4  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Hi All,

 

My two M4 Deco have been working just fine and my standard generic wifi router too with a good internet connection.

 

Today I woke up and my 2 M4 Deco have a storng wi fi signal (as always) but with no internet connection at all, the App shows that there is no connection to the Deco M4 and my internet provider lets me know that the internet service is working perfectly. I unplugged/plugged the main M4 Deco and the issue is still in place. I log in to tp-link via Chrome so as to make an online configuration and both M4 Deco routers miraculously connect to Internet.

 

Is there any way to avoid this?

 

I am asking this because I live in a rural area with limited access to mobile phone signal and I need to have a steady internet connection in case of an emergency.

 

Thanks,

Tom.

@Pi0tr , I found out that, once you log-in as I explained before and if the issue pops up again, it is a hardware matter: I unplugged/plugged the cable that connects my standard router to the main M4 Deco and got it solved... this happened twice so far and solved it the same way.

 

Hope this helps!

 

Best,

Tom.

@TomArgentina At last I bought a M5 and now is my primary router. 0% problems since that.

 

thanks!
