Velica GL-B2200 dropping WAN connection every single hour

niket · 2021-02-15T23:51:48.729Z

I recently got my Velica(GL-B2200) Mesh Router. I am facing an issue right now where it keeps on dropping the WAN connection then automatically reconnects within few seconds. This happens exactly every hour and during this time the Wifi is not available for about 1 minute. This problem is very annoying. The firmware version right now is latest: 3.105 - compile time: 2020-12-30 21:56:23.

I have never faced this issue on my old router from Netgear which I have been using for more than 4 years with my same ISP.

I think this happens every time with a DHCP lease renewal. Whenever there is a DHCP lease renewal the connection seems to be dropped even though the WAN IP address has not been changed.

Possible scripts to look are maybe these?:
/lib/netifd/proto/dhcp.sh
/usr/share/udhcpc/default.script

I have attached the snippet of the log from the time when this had happened. Some help would be greatly appreciated!.

For now I have what I have done is connected my old Netgear router back to my Verizon WAN ethernet connection and then I have connected Velica router via the lan port. In this mode I can use Velica without any issues. Netgear router is able to retain seamless connection to my ISP and share the same with Velica router via lan connection. This further helps confirm that there is definitely something wrong in the way Velica handles DHCP lease renewal. I have also called my ISP regarding this issue but they also pretty came to the same conclusion with the new router causing this and not them.

Would appreciate some help on this. Thank you in advance!

I forwarded to developer to check.

Have you enabled router policy?

niket · 2021-02-17T13:38:57.245Z

No I had not setup and routing policy I believe. The only policy that I have is VPN policy but I think that would not be related to this issue.

Please pm me your email I’d like to send you a test firmware.

niket · 2021-02-19T22:47:28.673Z

@hansome Thank you for this. Can you please PM me?. Sorry I am new to this forum and I am unable to find any option to send a PM. Seems like it is not enabled for me. I kept on searching for this option but no luck.

Hi Niket,
Replied you on our support@gl-inet.com with the testing firmware. Hansome already issued a firmware to fix this bug.

niket · 2021-02-20T18:59:16.844Z

Hi @simonli & @hansome - just closing out this thread here. The test firmware seems to fix this issue. My Wifi no longer drops the connection with WAN each time when it does a DHCP lease renewal. Thank you for the quick turnaround from the team. Really appreciate it!.
