MR6400 dropping out
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
My MR6400 4G router with an O2 PAYG SIM has been working fine on 4g for 6 months both in UK and roaming in Spain (O2 is owned by Spain's Telefonica). Over the last 2 weeks it has started dropping out at increasingly frequent intrervals. The same SIM works fine in my phone, even when the data connection is shared via a hotspot. Sometimes yhe MR6400 reconnects on its own, then drops again after a few minutes. Nothing interesting in the system logs, just DHCP and DNS timeouts when the disconnection occurs
Thinking it was an O2 problem and under pressure from O2 customer services, I upgraded to an O2 contract Sim 2 days ago, but that has the same problem.
The only thing that seems to help most of the time is on the internet page press 'Save' on the canned config O2-contract or sometimes I have to select a different config, save, then reselect o2-contract and save again. It is as if the internal working copy of the config has got corrupted and is refreshed by the save.
Is my MR6400 broken? I only bought it in March 2023.
Attached at last is a zip file with the full system log from reboot at 08:31 until 08:44 this morning after it had dropped out. There are also the requested screenshots from 08:33 when it was working, and 08:44 when it had stopped working. There was only one wifi client active ovrr the complete period. Carrier is O2 contract. I am based in rural Kent, England, postcode CT4 6XS, where 5g has never been seen, and 4g is pretty weak on all networks, hence signal strength 25%. Nevertheless it has been working fine for 6 months, typically giving me 10MBS, better than the 4MBS I get from copper wire ADSL that I use as fallback.
Sorry for the runaround, I only have an android tablet available at the moment and some things are a little harder than I am used to in Windows.
