Has anyone else been having issues with the wi-fi connection on 2.4Ghz? Starting this week, i have had nothing but wi-fi connection drops on my 2.4Ghz wi-fi card. Seems sporadic, and often times, the number of drops can go on for several minutes. If you run a continuous ping count, you'll see a nice solid 2-3ms response, then they'll be the odd 300-500ms response, followed by a coupled of dropped packets, then back to 2-3ms. No issues from a device that uses a 5Ghz connection, only my 2.4Ghz devices. I'm suspecting the firmware on the modem must have been updated recently, but i can't seem to find any logs on the router that would indicate that. Current firmware running is 7.1.1.2.7b8. I rebooted the modem, and the device with the 2,4Ghz card, but it hasn't made a difference. Like i said, this started sometime this week. maybe Monday or Tuesday. I use this 2.4Ghz device everyday, for 10-12 hours daily, so i noticed right away when things start to act up. Anyhow, before i decide to go hardwire, i just wanted to see if anyone else in the community has experienced the same problem.

I had a look at the router, all lights were lit (power, upload, download, WAN, 2.4, and 5). After waiting for 10 min, i got fed up and rebooted the router. Then, at 11:15, the something…

  • i really hope Fizz isn't pushing updates during business hours; we live in a covid-19 world now where the many people work from home. In any event, i haven't had any further problems since this morning.

  • Modem update meaning a firmware upgrade?

  • PF_Ref_D2U9A, channel change may be a good idea, just really odd it started last week. Clive, modem was rebooted as i had mentioned in my opening comments. Resetting back to factory seems extreme, considering what 5Ghz devices haven't experienced this problem. Besides, why lose my custom config? Resetting would be a last…
