W8690N WiFi keeps freezing
2014-10-26 22:40:26
Region : UnitedKingdom

Model : TD-W8960N

Hardware Version : Not Clear

Firmware Version : 1.4.0 Build 111108 Rel.40398n

ISP : Plusnet


Note although label on bottom of router states v1.5 (S/N 10178201273), Device Info Summary reports Hardware Version as TD-W8960N v3 0x00000002

WiFi randomly freezes with light on but all wireless devices become disconnected. ADSL light also freezes on at same time. After a few minutes ADSL light starts occasionally flashing again and then 1-3 mins later WiFi starts flashing and reconnection is then possible without restarting router. Have upgraded to latest firmware (for v1), and done a factory reset. No change. Freezing incidents can happen every 3-4 mins, or every few hours, but are usually 10-20 mins apart. I have had this router for ~2 years but this behaviour has only just started in the last 10 days.

As my title say..

I have bought this modem about 1 month ago now, and it continue to loose connection with WIFI, is that a common problem with all TP-LINK products?
Since I have had many routers from you and they had all the same problem.. Was forced to buy another brand to get correction of the faults..

Hardware Version: TD-W8960N V5 0x00000001

Wired connection is working OK? Did you try different channels and using channel width 20MHz?
SInce you had many TP-LINK routers which had the same problem, did you ever contact TP-LINK people to ask for soluctions?
