Model: Archer A6  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.1.7 Build 20201010 rel.49458(5553)

Hi,

 

I recently bought TP Link Archer A6 online and started facing as an Internet connection keeps on dropping.

I checked the system Logs and found below messages occur periodically in the span of 1-2 hrs or sometimes lesser.

 

[0] wan port link down

[0] wan port link up with speed 1000M

 

I was using Tp link TL-WR840 N and never had any issues.

The reason I purchased a new router as my Internet speed is 250 Mbps and old router did not have gigbyet port.

 

When contacted TP link support did all the troubleshooting including factory reset and firmware upgrade.

Finally, I have been advised to replace the router.

I requested a replacement and received the same in 4-5 days. Meanwhile, I connected old TL-WR840 N router and the internet worked just fine.

However, the moment in connected Brand new Archer 16 which i received as a replacement I started facing the same issue again.

 

once again contacted support and wilth advise setup primary and Secondary DNs to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 respectively. MTU size : 1458

Still facing the same issue. Not sure what to do as fed up. Never thought of such issues before purchasing a new router. 

I would appreciate if some can help.

May I know who is your ISP? When the internet drops, is the Internet LED on the A6 orange or green?

 

BTW, we would report the issue to the support engineers, they will likely reach out to you via email to continue to troubleshoot your issue. Please check your email box and confirm, thanks.

Hi, thanks for getting back with the details. Do you mean you have contacted the local tech support to request a replacement? If that is the case, you can wait for the replacement, then confirm if the issue will disappear.

 

Good days.
