Hello
i just bought 2 weeks ago this router TP-link TD-W8961N 300Mbps Wireless N ADSL2+ Modem Router..
i configured it as PPPoA/PPPoE
so the problem i have with this router everyday or every 2 days in a time the router like reboot by it self and then when i check it's configurations i found that
it has switched back to Bridge mode instead of PPPoA/PPPoE by it self
i tried upgrading the firmware i did but it stayed in the same firmware which is 3.0 guess i already had the latest upgrade ? maybe it got upgraded i just upgraded it now
so i don't know if the problem still remains but i guess likeley it still will be here ..
so does anyone know where is exactly the problem or do you guys have any soulition ? thanks in advance !

Hi,
I am new in the community and i have the same problem but just rebooting or losting the wifi & internet connection with my TPLINK W8961N V3 with the last firmware.
I must shutdown and start the router again to fix the problem, and it come again after few days.
Can you fix this issue please with a new firmware.
Thank you.

UPDATE, well as u knwo the firmware upgrade didn't solve the problem, i solved it the old fashioned way, i sold it and bought a Tenda router now it works perfectly
sad to say this but my experience with this tp-link router was bad, beside this problem the time reboot of it was very slow..

It is very sade that TPLink support didn't react to resolve this problem.
I am very disapointed.
I buyed a Tenda router and it fixes this problem.
Thanks.

Hi,
I’ve just to buy the same as you have had and got the same issue. Thanks to your experience, I found out that all configuration we made is under virtual circuit pvc4. After reboot or power off, it was set to pvc0 as default. You have to reset to pvc4 to get your initial config. To solve that issue, I move all values of pvc4 to pvc0 and the problem is gone. J

Thank you so much for you experience and feedback. I've just test the router again, some days ago, and experinced the same issue again.
Now, i will test your solution and see what it will be.
Other point, some people just bought new W8961n v3 and it has a new firmware on it 170919, this one doesn't exist on any tplink sites, there is only 180218 firmware.
Thanjs again.

@MrDSM Hi, please click on PVC's Summary and check if you are this picture : PVC0 has VPI 8 and VCI 35 ENCAP PPP0E and IP Address Dynamic. The rest should be the same.

@chipitoz Yes, it is.
But the problem, why the wifi drops too?
It feels like the router restarts.
That's happens to me when i connect PC to the router also.
It's very strange.
