Model: RE200  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I have the RE200 and whenever I turn my pc on after getting back from school, waking up or getting home from being a away for a few hours it does not have any connection. It says on my computer that it says that it is connected to the RE200 but there is no internet connection. The only solution I have found for this is pulling out the RE200 and plugging it back in. After I pull it out and plug it back in it connects to the internet and works. This leads me to believe that it is the RE200 that is causing the issue. I would really like a more permenant fix to this instead of having to replug it in every time I want internet. If anyone has had this problem and knows a fix please let me know.

  @Ethan24 

Hi, if not pulling out from the power socket and plugging back, will disconnecting/forgetting the current WiFi and connecting again help?

Is your PC the only device that had this issue?

It is also suggested to change the IP address on the PC and check whether it had got a correct IP address from the main router:

How to find IP address on your devices

By the way, how long have you RE200?

Thank you very much.

Best regards.

Hey @David-TP , my pc is the only device connected to it. I did a bit of testing and figured out that it is the RE200 that is disconnecting and not my pc. I realised that it need a firmware update and I downloaded that just a few minutes ago so I am hoping that the update fixed my issue. I have had my RE200 for about 2 months now I started noticing the problem a few weeks to a month of having it.
