Firmware Version : 3.14.7 Build 130424 Rel.72646n

ISP : Telkomspeedy

Hi all,

I think I found a temporary solution for the losing wifi problem, as I found the same problem happening too in D-Link wifi router, and I read in D-Link forum someone said this losing wifi problem was caused by enabling the IPTV multicast stream, and we just have to disable this function with disable the IGMP proxy and snooping. So I go to my WDR4900 router website and go to Network tab and then LAN tab and make disabled that IGMP proxy. And my wifi until now, 48 hrs already, never losing their connection yet .
Even with my Hardware NAT Enabled and I used the latest stock firmware.

I think this solution can be applied to WDR3600 and WDR4300 too, u just have to disabled the IGMP Proxy/Snoop or IPTV multicast stream.

Hope this solution work.

Hi Sunseng,
thanks for your solution I just did that... testing. This is a really embarrassing problem. I made the 30/30/30 hard reset before and after upgrading to the current version my 4900 and i'm still having problems with the wifi.
Media server is still not working.
I'm thinking to buy another router. Fortunatly amazon can get back the product.

Edit:
I'm still having the same issue.

Unfortunately your solution doesn't work for me. I'm continuously losing wifi signal.

Is it the new released "TL-WDR4900_V1_130424" caused wifi problem again? I used the "TL-WDR4900(EU_V1_130320" now and it was better than before about wifi stability.
Can you describe the wifi losing problem about the new released so that I won't do the update? Thanks...

I replaced the 130424 by the 130320 because the wifi throughput was too slow.
With 130424, I measured the speed with "Lan Speed Test" using several PC and curiously reading was 5 times slower than writing.
Globally the last version doesn't appear better to me.

Sometime disabling the "WMM" feature in the advanced wireless setup works.
