Hello,
At home i have the following setup.
All my house has CAT5 and CAT6 installed.
On the basement i have my data room where there is a patch panel connected to all the CAT5 and CAT6 around the house and a 10/100 24 port TPLINK switch.
Yesterday i purchased an ASUS RTN66U router and connected in to my ADSL modem WAG200G (in bridge mode) got everyhing working, internet connection and wfi, and then i used one of the ports of the ASUS to connect it onto the switch in order to get internet around the house.
I then went to my pc, that is connected to the CAT6 wall plug via a CAT6 cable.... and noticed the folowing!!!
THE LAN WAS CONNECTED AT FIRST an i had internet but then IT STARTED DISCONNECTING AND CONNECTING .. every 3-5 minutes, i couldn't even log on to the router locally va 192.168.1.1 when i was disconnected.
At first i thought it was the ASUS but i connected my laptop via WIFI and it was on all the way.... without any disconections.
Then in order to check some more... i went down to the data room and bypassed the TPLINK 10/100 switch and pluged the ASUS port directly on the patch panel to the room where my PC was...
EVERYTHING WORKED FINE !!!! (No disconnections)
It seems that the SWITCH causes the problem ... is it because the ASUS is a gigabit router... but the switch is 10/100 ??? or what ?
Can someone help me on this.
