Re:Deco M5 keeps dropping internet randomly
2021-03-12 02:41:12

@Yaminator 

Hi, Did all 3 units have the unstable issue or just the satellite Deco units?

Would any Deco turn red when the connection dropped?

How about the dropping frequency on the Deco and did you need to reboot the Deco to restore the connection, or they could come back automatically?

If possible, could you please provide me a picture of your network topology?

Thank you very much and wait for your reply.

@TP-Link All units, red LED, and it comes back after 2 minutes or so.  Can you please look at the logs? what is the point of having logs if they do not depict an issue, i just posted the "critical" logs at time of outtage

@Yaminator 

 

In your Main Deco logs, with default Log Type: NOTICE, search for log lines similar to this:

 

Mon Nov  2 10:22:12 2020 daemon.notice conn-indicator: Connectivity changed: ONLINE(0x0) -> OFFLINE(0x1)

 

This will help you figure how frequently Main Deco loses Internet connection, even when you are not watching Deco LED or using Internet, thus answering one of TP-Link Support questions.

 

 

Another log line should tell when Deco regains Internet connection:

 

Mon Nov  2 10:22:42 2020 daemon.notice conn-indicator: Connectivity changed: OFFLINE(0x1) -> ONLINE(0x0)

 

In this example Main Deco was disconnected from the Internet for exactly 30 seconds (10:22:12 - 10:22:42), then reconnected by itself.

@Yaminator so far I have switched back to the old firmware and have not had a problem in the last few hours.  The new firmware (1.5.3) seemed to cause issues ever since update so hopefully this will continue working.

@Yaminator 

Thank you very much for your update.

Did everything work well till now?

I have reported your case to the senior engineers already for further investigation.

Moreover, May I know who is your internet service provider and what is the model number of your cable modem?

Thank you very much.

everything worked perfect until about a week ago. At first it would only go out at night, now it goes out multiple times throughout the day. Reverting the software did not fix the problem. Do you think it may be radio wave interactions and interuptions?

Have you checked Main Deco logs, as I suggested, to see if Main Deco reports losing connection? If yes, please post here how often it happens in current logs, and duration of each connectivity loss.
