W8968 WAN connection works for only few hours
Model :
Hardware Version : Not Clear
Firmware Version :
ISP :
Hi,
My Internet Service Provider in Hyderabad India is Beam Fiber/ACT Fibernet. I have a TD-W8968 which connects to cable using WAN dynamic IP mode. I have been seeing strange issues recently. Sometimes my beam connection doesnt work in any mode (dynamic IP and PPoE mode) in my router TPLINK TD-W8968. But if I connect its network cord to my laptop then it works. After few hours, somehow again it starts working when connected to my router. The frequency of this issue is like twice or thrice in a month.
When this issue happens my router logs show that 'Recv no OFFER, DHCP Service unavailable' for Dynamic IP mode and 'pado timeout errors' for PPoE mode. But at the same time if I connect the network cord to my laptop then it works perfectly in both the modes. I tried cloning my laptop mac in the router, changing the LAN ip address and tried but it did not work.
Last 3 days, the router only works during the nights and in the mornings is unable to connect to the internet but if i connect network cord to my laptop then it works for me.
The service provider says its not an issue at their side.
Did anybody face a similar issue? what could be the root cause here? Any solutions? How can I trouble shoot?
Thanks,
Ravi
