@Feary 

 

Look at the internet light of the router. If you are noticing the light change from amber to green there may be an issue with the modem. You can also log into your modem and look at the system logs, if you have any critical 3 or critical 4 errors that is causing the drops.

Yes it does change to amber.

 

It drops ALL clients be it wireless or wired..

@Feary 

 

The amber is the routerh telling you internet is not getting to it from what ever it is connected to. Log into the modem, not the TP-Link router, and look for the crit 3 or 4 errors. If you do have those, contact your ISP, the errors are telling you the signal is not stable, and that needs to be fixed.

 

Now if you log into the modem, and do not see any such errors, then the router WAN port may be bad, at that point I would contact our support team.
