RE200 disconnecting from internet
Hello, I have an RE200 V5 that I use as a wireless adapter (ethernet cable to desktop pc)
Which I now have problems with. Sometimes when you connect it to power, or when it runs for about 30 minutes, it disconnects from the internet, usually just a few seconds and then it comes back on. I've tried resetting the extender, and also the router but it doesn't help.
This is what it says in the log when this usually happens:

Hi @Triple7D,
If you are experiencing intermittent wireless connection on the range extender, please refer to the following suggestions:
1. Confirm the extender is properly located based on How to place your wireless Range Extender for optimal reception and performance.
2. Make sure the firmware on the extender is up-to-date.
3. Enable “High Speed” mode if you have a dual-band extender.
4. Disable Parental Control or Access Control (Blacklist/ Whitelist) on the host router if they have been enabled for the extender.
5. Turn off Band Steering (also called "Smart Connect" or "Whole-Home Wi-Fi") and set up different Wireless names for the router's 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz Wi-Fi.
6. Fix the wireless channels on the host router, such as channel 11 for 2.4GHz and channel 48 for 5GHz.
For more details, please refer to What if the Range Extender keeps losing connection?

@Joseph-TP Hi, thanks for your reply, I have followed most of these steps before, without success. A small update now is that it happened again, but in the log it now said the following: [dhcpc]DHCPC: Stop DHCPC
I assume it has something to do with DHCPS? here is the network page of the extender.
And my DHCP range on the routers settings are from 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.254

Hi @Triple7D,
Please change to' Auto' for DHCP server. If the issue persists, please try to hard reset the extender and set it up again.
How to reset: Keep power on, use a pin to press the button for 1 second to reset the extender.
