Restart router daily?
For my t-mobile home internet, I have to restart the router daily otherwise I drag down from 80+ mbps to something like 20mbps. Are better routers coming out? Am I the only one this is happening to?
I have called support before on this and they just have me reboot or reset the router but it eventually comes back.
I tried an Alexa plug but it needs internet to start back up. Doh!
Ah yeah no. This is not a Ethernet negotiation issue. The switch shows it running full gig speed all the time. This is with the LTE modem.
I don't have the modem/router because the service isn:t available where I am, so I am not that familiar with what settings are there and what are not. Most routers and even modem routers have a connection setting that is by default, set to auto, but can be set manually. From my understanding, the T-Mobile modem/router is pretty basic. If it is there, it should be easy to find.
Huh? Connection speed for LTE? Never seen such a setting? I’m talking about the T-mobile LTE modem/router. If that’s what you are referring to, please let me know where that setting is.
Do you have the router set to auto-detect the connection speed? This can cause this because the connection will drop or slow down and the router relocks in the speed. Disabling this and entering the maximum up and down speed manually and saving it should stop this from happening.
