Again another crash ay 10:01 on July 25....

In the error log attached I see ALL issues related to getting sim status and "mobile"... The router is in and always has been in access point mode... Why is code executing related to the sim or mobile?

  @63Vino 

Last fiile I send for now.  This router is continually active creating errors around sim status and mobile......

This is access point... Maybe I'm wrong but spending limited CPU power to execute checks or code that should not be active in Access point mode.

In this file, there was no crash... I was just clearing logs to have a fresh start and these keep popping up like crazy.

thanks

thomas

Hi David.

Thanks for the reply.

While i agree the system log itself takes a small memory or cpu bandwidth... The background checks for things that are not active, I worry do have an impact.  Thanks for checking to see if that could be optimized further.

When Deco X50-5G is in AP mode and the internet drops out, will its LED turn red?  Yes, It turns red and then likewise the satellites, sometimes the satellites dont recover.. (or maybe Im not patient ehouch :))

Have you tried to disable "Smart DHCP" on the Deco APP>More>Advanced?

I have not tried this but can. Could you indicate what benefit thous would bring? I am remote these days so if changing this setting would disrupt the service, I will wait until i return before making changes...

I am SUPER curious to understand if there is some indication in the erros logs, about what is causing the crash.  Are they able to read and give some indicaiton?

ny optimization suggested will be beneficial and through this investigation, learn more about the nuances about how deco works and the impacts of certain configurations.

As for stability.  I've seen a beta FW aimed at stability for different versions BUT could you see about if there would be a similar update for the V1- x50-5G?

By the way, apart from Deco X50-5G, do you have other Deco Mesh models in the network?

Yes, I have 3) x50-outdoor and 1) x1500 Screenshots below.

Thanks David.. with these suggestions I will have a couple possible things to try. Both seem useful to try. I won't be back there for at least another wek but I will let you know the result once I try them...

When "Smart DHCP" is enabled, even in AP mode, Deco could assign IP addresses for mobile devices to maintain an active local connection if the actual DHCP server is down. It might cause trouble after the actual DHCP server is recovered, but the previous DHCP release time on the mobile devices hasn't expired.

Basically, disabling "Smart DHCP" prevents Deco from randomly activating its DHCP function in AP mode when the ISP router consistently works well.

 OK .I will try that when I get back there

 

In AP mode, almost every Mesh unit behaves quite similarly. I think it might be better to set another Deco, such as the Deco X1500 here.  Deco X1500 is much simpler compared with Deco X50-5G, which is a multi-gateway Deco.

You're saying to set the x1500 as the main deco?  Thats quit easy and a really good idea..I originally had a sim in the x50-5g but then changed service provider. 

I will try this also as it does sound pretty promising to not have the more complex and busy router as the main deco, unnecessarily.  

 

 

As for the beta firmware, do you refer to this post for Deco X50-5G_v2:Enhance the Overall 5G network stability for Deco X50-5G_V2

A similar firmware fix has already been introduced into the 1.2.1 official version of Deco X50-5G_v1.

OK... then i have the best available...thanks

 

 

Best regards.
