Client could not connect to Main unit, while other units kept working correct
On 1.3.1 my setup is much more stable: all units were up with no issues for almost 4 weeks, however last week,
again i had to reboot 2x, both the same issue.
The nice thing about the latest firmware is that you can download the log file. So hopefully this helps in finding the cause !
My setup
Modem ------->Main Deco
Node 1 -> Wireless connnected to Main deco / Node 2
Node 2 -> Connected with ethernet to Main Deco
What is happening:
- I could not connect anymore with WiFi to the main unit on the client: error: "connected, no internet" on nodes: LED green + no errors in the app).
- Note that I tried multiple devices, all with the same result.
- Wifi on all other nodes was still working correct
- I can check this just by going to the rooms where the nodes are located (also in the app you can see to which node a client is connected)
- Interestingly enough: the nodes CONNECTED TO THE MAIN UNIT (1 with WiFi and 1 with Ethernet) were also STILL WORKING FINE ! )
- Later Node 1 disconnected (this was visible in the app, and LED also went to red)
=> Only way to fix this was rebooting the main unit.
I have the idea that the cause is not a wifi issue / interference but maybe something with DHCP or a software crash of the main unit.
since the other nodes kept working correct.
As a test I now also removed my Chromecast, since I read it COULD also cause issues.
The logs:
- Issue happened on Tue Aug 20
- I don't know the exact time, but i think around 23:30
