TL-MR100 disconnected many times per day
I've been facing frequent disconnects like other MR models. Signal strenght is 100% and router to my device distance is not more than 3 meter.
So far I've tried following steps.
- Creating custom network profile
- Setting 4G only mode
- Setting channel number to 1
- Setting DNS to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
- Disabling firewall
- Setting channel width to fix value. (tried both 20MHz & 40MHz)
None of these worked. Also disconnects doens't happen at fix time, it's random. Something it happanes twice in a minute.
So far I've seen only following text in the log when disconnect-reconnect happens.

Use my solution :
I figured out something very weird but useful today. I took one of my antenna out from the router (the left one ) and the fluctuations has gone since. I mean when I have 2 antennas the Db is : +6 , +10 , -15 etc . never stable. However when I take the left antenna out it is + 20 db fixed ;) Not more fluctuations. Can you make an explanation for this . It works great with 1 antenna now =) try to see it with your own eyes
Also I choose band 8 manually to have a stable 45 mbps download/ 45 mbps upload. No disconnects anymore. But use only 1 antenna as I said.

@Sunshine I have bought this router recently. After using Airtel carrier I found this is happening. It disconnects and reconnects auto within 2 or three seconds even when it has latest firmware.

I got the TL MR100 yesterday and since then I cannot fix the issue with the dropping wireless signal. The router has the latest firmware installed but it still drops wireless connection every few minutes. The only improvement that I noticed is when I set the wireless channel on the fixed value and since then my network devices connect faster than before after the interruption but there is still a wireless drop every several minutes which is very noticeable in the real time communication. When I put the same sim card in a cell phone and share the internet there is no downtime at all.
