IPTV Behind TL-SG105 and a router - usually TV does not connect Internet
A couple of weeks ago I bought a TV and ever since I am having issues to have it connected to Internet.
(1Gbps Fiber) Modem --> Asus Router RT-AC88U-->TL-SG105 switch-->TV
Mostly TV doesn't start using the 'conventional' method, i.e. using the power button on the remote control.
I may try that a dozen times, waiting in for 1-2 or 3 minutes in between, nothing happens.
In fact I may push any button on the remote, nothing happens.
As a last resort using off and on switch on the power strip solves the matter.
(BTW Did not try to remove the switch to see whether problems continue)
Somewhere, someone wrote about 'energy saving' mode, or something and disabling that(?)
The TL-SG105 has some 'Green Ethernet technology' on board, but I wouldn't how to disable that.
Probably I can't.
Somewhere elise I read about IGMP Snooping (really I have not faintest idea what it is)
In the Asus router, section IPTV, it says
Use DHCP routes: Microsoft
Enable multicase routing (IGMP Proxy): disabled
Enable efficient multicast forwarding (IGMP Snooping): disable
UDP Proxy; 0
Section: Dual WAN: Primary WAN is set to WAN.
Q: are there any settings that may help to solve the problem?
Thank you.
p.s.: re-discovered the thread about this 'power saving mode' - it is on Reddit
pretty much the same situation, same hardware. It is not my thread...
