Hi,
I have an AC3100 running Merlin 386_7_2. Yesterday I found an very bad issue with the wifi connection:
The configuration is:
AC3100 - TPLink Archer C2 - Desktop.
AC3100 connect with Archer C2 using WDS, {2.4G or 5G}. The desktop is wired to the Archer C2.
From the desktop, trying to ping forever the AC3100, I found 2 packets drop every 58 seconds. It is periodic. Downloading file using web browser may fail because of the issue.
Archer C2 is placed 3m from the AC3100 and the desktop has very good internet speed if not dropped.
I have checked:
+ Ping outside e.g google.com: same issue.
+ wifi laptop connect to AC3100: works well
+ Desktop wired directly to AC3100 with the same Lan cable: works well
+ Restart Archer C2: same issue
+ switch connection between AC3100 and Archer C2 from 2.4 to 5G: same issue
+ Restart AC3100: issue SOLVED. But just a few hours later the issue comes back. Restart it again and few hours later the issue keeps comebak with the same symptom.
I think that there is a bug in the WDS connection between AC3100 and Acher C2.
Pls help, I dont know how to resolve it. Thabk you.
