Re: plusnet hub one keeps dropping wifi connections

I have a desktop machine connected via ethernet, no issues there. Sure, will factory reset and reboot when home. cheers

Re: plusnet hub one keeps dropping wifi connections

OK cool no worries, keep us posted

From 31st October 2022, I no longer have a regular presence here as I’ve moved on to a new role.

Re: plusnet hub one keeps dropping wifi connections

FWIW I have something similar.

Once every couple of days one of my wifi devices will simply disconnect. Today it was an Amazon Echo 10 feet away from the Hub One. Sunday it was a Kasa smart plug 5 feet away. Thursday it was an AudioPro Addon C5a 2 feet away.

There are about 20 wireless devices in the house. I have WiFi Analyzer on my phone. have already split 2.4 from 5 with separate SSIDs - that helped somewhat. I have turned wifi off on two Devolo dLAN 1200+ that connect ethernet televisions - and that helped somewhat. 

These days my first port of call is to turn the affected device off and on again - that seems to work three times in four. If that fails then I refresh the Smart Wireless on the router (that seems to be as effective as rebooting the router without disturbing my wired connections).

The reach of the signal of the Hub One seems to be good enough. But the dropping is annoying without being life threatening.

If there were a good solid alternative suggestion I'd go for it. Before Hub One I used to use Netgear routers. 

1. Product name: Plusnet Hub

Re: plusnet hub one keeps dropping wifi connections

It it helps at all, I am seeing a number of Client associated and Client disassociated messages in the log, with a few WiFi registration failed

Is this rate of activity normal? 

Just looking at the top few and using -https://dnschecker.org/mac-lookup.php- to determine the device type.
