    The old modem>switch>router question.

    At last the culprit is found!!!!! After disabling every service one at a time I discovered that it's Canon's EOS UPNP detector (32 bit) service. EOSUPNPSV.EXE specifically. Of course once I searched for the service name there were other people who have dealt with this as well...

    The old modem>switch>router question.

    That is a bit over my head but yes my wired Windows 10 laptop is causing failure or severe degradation in my 2.4Ghz wireless. The computer is connected to a switch which is then connected to the router. I tried contacting Netgear support but feel that I would rather kill myself than go through...

    The old modem>switch>router question.

    On a side note, I am seeing a lot of Remote LAN access from IP addresses Amazon, OVH SAS France etc. I'm not sure I can block any of them.

    The old modem>switch>router question.

    Safe mode on Windows 10 seems to mitigate the issue so its most likely an application. My spidey sense tells me Avast Antivirus. However, I disabled it from the system tray and the problem remained.

    The old modem>switch>router question.

    Well, after weeks of ripping my hair out, buying new routers etc... I have discovered where the problem is coming from.... FINALLY. It's my wired Windows 10 laptop. I unplug the patch cable from the switch and the problem immediately goes away. It only appears to affect download speeds and...

    The old modem>switch>router question.

    Yes I do. Each location has two drops wired with cat 6. 1 was intended for data the other for phone. However, I can make both data if need be. It just looks bad is all with patch cables all over the kitchen wall.

    The old modem>switch>router question.

    Yeah I've tried all possibilities I can think of such as cordless phones, microwaves, bluetooth devices etc. 2.4Ghz fails on both levels of my home so I don't think it's something in the room. Although at this point who knows.

    The old modem>switch>router question.

    Yes I have tried the new router and it suffers from the same problems. Which leads me to believe it's environment related. By leaving the SSID name the same my devices can connect to whichever AP has the strongest signal since they share the same credentials it is seamless... if I could get...

    I'm thinking about wrapping my house in aluminum foil.

    The old modem>switch>router question.

    Hi Coxhaus I have tried running the analyzer when the problem is occurring and it doesn't look much different. In some cases I'm on 11 almost all by myself. Which is why I'm thinking it's something I cannot see. Rebooting the router does NOT fix the issue. It appears to happen randomly and...

    The old modem>switch>router question.

    Hi Nullity, I believe the surfboard will only assign 1 IP adress to the first device it sees. I do not see where it assigns any other DHCP addresses.

    The old modem>switch>router question.

    Thanks Ken I have used wifi analyzer to determine what may be interfering. See attached images My Netgear is the BlueLine on channel one. The new Asus is the BlueLine on channel 11. I turned them both on for observational purposes. I did try running them in tandem in AP mode. The problem...

    The old modem>switch>router question.

    New guy here.... so I'm dealing with a bit of a nightmare. My network closet is in my basement which consists of my patch panel (wired with cat5e and 6), Netgear 7000 router, Surfboard 6121 and a Netgear 8 port unmanaged switch. All was working fine for the longest. Then one day something (?)...
