Model: Deco X55  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.0.1 Build 20221103 Rel. 43293

I recently set up my 2 pack of X55s.THe Main Deco X55 in my living room and is connected to the WAN. I have one NAS hard-wired to this X55.

 

There are 12 other devices on the network including IOT devices, phones, a printer, AppleTV, and a Smart TV. I've had no problem with any of these.

 

The other X55 is in my office, and I have a Windows computer hard-wired to it. The problem is that, if I don't use the computer for an hour or two, it disconnects from the hard-wired connection, and the only way I can find to reconnect it is to restart the entire computer. I'd prefer not to have to do this as it is disruptive to my workflow. 

 

I never experienced this before with my Netgear Nitehawk router. This only started happening when I set up the Deco. Also, this doesn't happen with any of the other devices. 

 

Has anyone experienced this? 

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi, did it help to Disable Power Management on Windows, such as:

  @David-TP Thanks for the response, but this problem was too disruptive so I had to return the Decos. I got an Archer AX21 instead.
