kasa app floods router with mdns
every time i open the kasa app on my phone the vr2800 goes into meltdown with DNS failure
all clients disconnect, the 2.4ghz channel becomes completely unresponsive and the only way to do anything is connect a client with a static address
even when my phone is connected to 5ghz - it is still always the 2.4ghz that crashes
the router will not restart if soft-rebooted... it must be power-cycled on the switch
why does the kasa app do this discovery (many multicast mdns packets to 255.255.255.255) and what can i do to keep the vr2800 from crashing every time?
Re:kasa app floods router with mdns
Good day.
Sorry for the delay.
Did you still have the problem?
If yes, please refer to the following suggestions:
- Manually change the DNS address on the Archer VR2800;
- Did the Kasa APP only affect the 4ghz, or both 2.4ghz and 5ghz, even the Ethernet connection?
- If possible, please also try to modify the wireless channels and channel width of the 2.4ghz and 5ghz, such as https://www.tp-link.com/support/faq/2292/
By the way, what are the Kasa smart devices you have?
Thank you very much.
