TP Link Archer C3200 dropping internet connection (DNS problem)
2019-03-18 02:35:54
Model: Archer C3200  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 0.9.1.0.1 v004b.0

Lately, my internet connection has been dropping internet connection at random intervals (could be 30 min to 4 hours between drops) and when I check the router when the connection is lost, it always asks to configure DNS manually. I've tried switching to the google DNS and openDNS and the problem still persists.  

 

After a while (~5-10 minutes) the connection comes back and the configure DNS manually message is gone  

 

Prior to last week the internet connection had been solid with no problems for a span of about 6 months 

 

Note:

I have a DSL connection 

 

any help would be appreciated, thanks

Hello,

 

May I know who is your ISP? And what is the bandwidth you paid? Including download bandwidth and upload bandwidth.

 

Meanwhile, could you please export a picture of the status page when the connection drops out?

 

Besides, what is the current hardware and firmware version?

 

Thanks in advance. Nice day.

@TofuBlock Same issue, tried google, and my provider's DNS addresses...keeps dropping! (videotron). Modem still works when I connect directly to it, so router is the issue...please have someone contact me?

@TofuBlock yeah, when I hardwire in the modem, I still am connected, so really this TP-Link is the issue, sad, why a 200$ machine is barely usable within months and @TP_LINK doesn't answer.
