GL MT300A constantly dropping wifi

mikedefieslife · 2017-06-19T17:02:44.000Z

All of a sudden my MT300A that had been working perfectly, has started dropping wifi every minute or so. It’s madly frustrating.

Setup-wise I have it connected to a WAN for receiving an internet connection, the MT300A then distributes that via wifi.

Here’s the logs for today:

Seems you have set up repeater and it is not stable. This will case the ap unstable as well.

From the log, you have set up more than one repeater, and the router tries to change from one to another because it cannot build a successful connection.

Can you please remove the unstable repeater or check if all repeater has good signal, password is correct etc.?

So I can just go into Network/wifi then delete everything under the Wireless Overview heading?

I’m not using the device as a wifi repeater. I was about a month now. Now my internet connection comes from WAN.

May be you can just reset your device using the reset button.

Press and hold for 10 seconds.

I complete reset to factory defaults cleared this, but playing around it seems that a complete reset is the only way to remove a repeater once setup.

You cannot delete/remove it in the standard admin, and clicking disable, then delete in LuCI doesn’t do anything. The wifi restarts and the repeater still shows up. Seems like an annoying bug.
