PPPoE connection doesn't reconnect for a while after a power cut
Hi. I'm using an Archer C20 router. It was working perfectly fine up until a couple of months ago. Every time there's a power cut in my area, my connection doesn't reconnect for some time (sometimes 30 mins, sometimes 2-3 hours). After some hours, the connection restores on its own. It's getting really frustrating.
As far as I'm aware there was a bug that caused PPPoE connections to not reconnect after being disconnected but since been patched in a recent firmware update. I upgraded my router to the latest firmware version for Archer C20 V5. I also tried changing my connection mode to connect on demand and set max idle time to 0 (as suggested in an older thread). But nothing seems to resolve the problem.
The red LED is lit. Unplugging the power outlet for a few minutes, factory resetting the router- nothing has worked for me.
