VR400 - LAN ports disconnecting - now also dropping WLAN
Hi,
I just got a new VR400 v2 replacing the old VR400 v1 after making RMA. But the problem is still the same with brand new unit - VR400 is dropping out of LAN-connection, closing (or something) the LAN port/s.
I have 2 x PCs connected via LAN-ports (LAN1 and LAN4), Wifi is connected to several devices 5-7, but those devices are not usually used at the same time as playing some games with two PCs. Internet connection is VDSL2.
Usually the LAN1 port dies first, before that LAN (internet connection) is speeding down and pings are very high, connection is unstable. Propably the VR400 unit is getting hot and throttling (if that's even possible). Soon, also LAN4 port dies. Switchign RJ45 cables to ports LAN2 and LAN3 sometimes helps, at least to get internet connection back to computers. Usually we just have to reboot and after rebooting wait for a while to get connections back (unit is cooling down?).
- our temperature at home is about +22 celcius
- unit is on the table, nothing covers it, it even doesn't have dust in it (the new unit is about 7 days old).
Does anyone else have samekind of problems, or do you use it for gaming at all with multiple computers connected via LAN-ports?
And yes, Wifi is working on the meantime when LAN-ports die, usually at least.
If you have any tips to get it working more reliable (more than placing the unit in the fridgerator) I'm all ears. I have tested Asus units, but they get too hot and stops working.
Or is it the only option to get a real VDSL2 modem and use Wifi-router to get things working properly... I haven't tested to use VR400 only as a VDSL-modem because those antennas are not detachable and I think that if it has 4-ports those all should be able to be sed simultaneosly for gaming, surfing the internet, iptv etc.
