Keep in mind, when I mentioned power I wasn’t so concerned with the source as much as I was concerned about the AC adapter. Those can and do go bad based on power outages and surges.

Those can and do go bad based on power outages and surges. Came here to post this. Your wall wart or the capacitors inside the router are going, the power from your wall is probably fine and unless you're buying an "always online" double conversion UPS it's not going to save you here. Nice to have, but not going to fix it. Spend the money on a new router.

I'm starting to think the Nest cameras we recently added to the network may be overloading things a bit. What's the go to network health/monitoring app/suite these days? Bonus points if it's dockerized.

So I took my network setup apart today to install a 6183 I was able to borrow from a friend... and I found something. The power cable for the modem was cat chewed. At least three places with moderately oxidized bare conductor. I suppose that's to be expected, as the whole reason I built a floating shelf 7' off the floor was to keep the small cables out of cat reach. New power adapter on the way.

I'm not a networking person, so newbie question. I've got this topology:  (I've got reinforced concrete walls, APs are cheap, don't look at me like that) At apparently random (maybe a couple times a week), the desktop (connected to AP#2 via cable) loses its connection to the Internet. Pinging the fibre router times out, pinging anything on the internet times out, but it can ping AP#1 and all other machines in the home network. It can also reach AP#2. From the command console in AP#2, AP#2 can ping the fibre router. Whilst this is ongoing, the devices connected to AP#2 via wifi are fine and can reach the fibre router and the internet. I've checked that they're not silently switching to one of the others - they are really only connected to AP#2. This lasts for maybe ten minutes, then everything is fine again. If I reboot AP#2 it is fine as soon as it comes back up. What the hell is going on, what kind of logging should I even try to gather to find out ronya fucked around with this message at 06:45 on Jun 16, 2020 |

IP address conflict, maybe? Check if you haven't done something like set a static IP to a device (perhaps the disconnecting desktop) that turns out to be within the range handed out by your DHCP server.

Hmm, my fibre router is handling DHCP. The ISP software is hard locked to have a static range between .64 to .127 within the /24 subnet specified for the pool, I don't think it would re-use addresses... hmm e: from the DHCP logs there's a device that is MAC randomizing (like so), maybe that's it. I'll cut the lease time down to an hour, maybe that will help ronya fucked around with this message at 07:46 on Jun 16, 2020 |

The desktop is connected via cable, it's not also connected to the wifi at the same time, right? In theory the device would prioritize the cabled connection but I've seen weirder things happen with devices that are double connected. Also, Windows does have mac randomization options on the wifi, assuming this device is windows.

No, not double connected Mac randomization should be OK but I suspect whatever device it is requesting new leases really aggressively as well

Kind of a tough one with the limited troubleshooting capabilities of ISP routers. If this device is eating up the DHCP pool it still shouldn't effect the desktop as long as it's connected since the router will just keep giving it the same address forever. Once the pool runs out it just rejects new device requests. This device may also be trying to set it's own IP addressing apart from DHCP for some reason. Do you have any smart tvs on the network at all? Those are notorious for just grabbing and keeping IP addresses forever, often holding onto multiple addresses at a time because they suck. If it is actually an IP conflict, the best way to tell would be to ARP ping the IP address from another device when the desktop is acting up. I don't know what your other devices are but it doesn't look like there's a good way to do it in windows without downloading third party software. The reason I say ARP ping specifically is that all devices have to respond to ARP whereas a lot of devices will ignore regular pings (windows devices have ICMP responses disabled by default). Without downloading third party software, you could do this, from another (windows) device: arp -d //clears the arp table ping [ip address of desktop] //see if anything responds arp -a //shows the arp table, see if you see a mac address for the ip in question and if it actually matches the mac from the desktop if one of those other devices does happen to be linux it may have arping in it (or it can easily be installed) where you just run it like a normal ping so arping [ip address] and that's it. See if some other unexpected device responds. Garrand fucked around with this message at 10:54 on Jun 16, 2020 |

Unfortunately with how vague and intermittent it is, there's just a whole bunch of variables to cover. One thing you haven't mentioned, during this downtime have you tried disconnecting and reconnecting the ethernet cable and/or rebooting the device? Does that fix the issue or do you have to just wait until it starts working again?

Rebooting AP#2 resolves the problem as soon as AP#2 comes back online. That may be due to all the devices attached to AP#2 being connected to the network again so it may not be due to AP#2 itself though I haven't tried physically disconnecting it, I'll try that the next time.

I am working on a project to move all my network equipment (which right now is just an Archer C7) to my upstairs office, my house is small but I'd like to hardwire an AP to the downstairs area of my house. I'm not yet ready to make the jump to microtik or anything more complicated than just a simple AP to help with coverage. Can someone reccomend some decent bang for your buck APs that are on the market now? I don't need PoE.

Pretty well regarded if you're looking for a pure AP solution. Otherwise, Asus routers are usually pretty good and can be thrown in bridge mode.

So I got my C7 to stop making GBS threads the bed every day- hunted through old tickets and support threads for an hour and finally found someone with an identical problem in the v2 version- I have a v4 but it was the same issue. I have no idea what it does, but I turned off the NAT boost and viola- no more disconnects!

Some devices have hardware acceleration for NAT but it sounds like you were filling up its table (torrenting is one example of a thing that can do this obscenely quickly).

Lot of apps these days use peer-to-peer delivery methods for updates, too. It's also entirely possible it was malfunctioning or had a bad firmware or whatever.

Anyone ever have a UAP-AC-HD (or similar) just stop working? Here's the symptoms: - Receives PoE power and link shows active when connected to switch (switch shows a few watts going to the device, and a gigabit link) - Not discoverable via CloudKey - No LED ring light at all - Hold down reset button (clicked in) for 5 seconds, 10 seconds, 30+ seconds, no difference. LED is dark; nothing seems to change even after waiting a while. - Tried the "TFTP mode" - nothing, just darkness - Tried two different PoE+ injectors and a UniFi Switch 16 POE-150W This unit was working fine for years and then just appeared as offline  What haven't I tried?

I just moved into a new place and banzai kamikazed on a Dream Machine in lieu of going the old rack full of server gear stashed in a specially-doctored IKEA cabinet. It arrives this Friday. We'll see if I need or want the UAP in-wall HD. I doubt it, though, even though the signal will probably have to go right past the microwave to my computer, besides, they're sold out everwhere, it seems. From what I've seen, everything is painless, and I almost want to replace everyone I've set up Edgemax + Unifi for with this thing. Anyone got a recommendation on a decent PoE+ injector, since Ubiquiti has to be coy and not use words that are commonly used to mean certain specifications?

There are no injectors in inwalls boxes and the AF-AT price delta is so negligible, i would suggest purchasing a AT injector from the start.

The AP Pro I bought a few years ago did not come with an injector. I bought a second AP Pro and the 150w Ubiquiti switch a month ago, and the new AP Pro came with an injector. Maybe they changed when they realized it wasn't all commercial purchases?

Popping in for some help, again, please, because I have a weird thing happening. Here's my home network:code:This doesn't happen every time nor for every SQL script, but it sure as hell seems to happen when I start queries. It never happens when I'm only using my personal desktop. I'll be doing some testing this weekend to see if I can replicate it with any consistency. But so that I know if I'm completely insane: is this even possible? Could the router be having some kind of... I don't know, allergic loving reaction to the SQL code? Is it the spike in network traffic? What would you be looking for if you were trying to test this out?

Thanks Ants posted:Is your SQL environment set up differently on each PC regarding how many connections it will open at once? The only computer I run SQL from is the work laptop, so that shouldn't be it (if I understood your question). But if I need to check those multiple-connection settings on the laptop, I'm all ears. It's a fairly vanilla MS SQL Server connection to a company server through our VPN, at least to the best of my understanding.
