Model: Archer A20  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.8

Hello,

 

I am having unstable internet issues over wired and wireless networks through my Archer A20 ver 1.8. I have contacted Tech support and not received any solution. I am running the latest firmware, have contacted my ISP to make sure it isn’t on their end, and changed the primary and secondary DNS servers to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 respectively. This is happening once to twice an hour. This has been happening since the morning of 6/12. Nothing has changed in the environment, no new devices or new programs running. Usually it clears up in about 15 seconds, but sometimes I have to restart the router to solve the issue. When the internet cuts out the internet light turns orange on the front of the router. I have since switched out the TP-Link for an old Netgear I had and have had no issues, so I am thinking this is hardware related. Here is the error log I was able to pull form the router:

Due to working from home this has become a huge pain. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If the router internet light is turning amber internet is no longer getting to it. 

 

If you have a cable modem, check the modem logs and see if there are any critical 3 or critical 4 errors. 

 

Another thing to try is to swap the Ethernet cable.
