Anyone here having any issues with their routers? I came back today and found that when 1 of my devices (smartphone) is connected to wireless, the router is unable to provide an IP address to my laptop, which is connected via LAN cable. I changed my laptop to wireless while still having the phone connected, it connected but still without any IP.

I turned off WiFi on the phone and connected my laptop to WiFi and it works like a charm but then, I decided to turn WiFi on my phone again, the laptop starts to disconnect. It's an either or situation. I dunno what could have caused this. Yesterday, it was all good.

Troubleshooting I did:
ipconfig /renew @ /release
netsh int ipv4 @ ipv6 reset
Restarted DHCP client through msconfig
and so many more until I can't remember...
I even checked my Event Viewer and found that it was showing error 0x79 on the DHCP client... Googled and still can't solve it... In the end, I just tried disconnecting one and connecting the other and it's smooth sailing from there...

tl;dr version:

Connect 1, the other can't get IP address.

Try login to Thomson via LAN cable, then change the wifi channels one by one starting from 1, 6, 11...

Seriously.... mine always on channel 1 which monitored by inSSIDer. Strangely, yesterday whole day got problem with this channel but inSSIDer show same status which is 76%. And i have problem login my Thomason with my PC (using cable) then i have to restart my Thomson to able to login..... Why is this happen? what a Sh**ty problem.

You meant Auto disconnect then reconnect when online? My 1 now is ok without switch off modem & router (haven try to switch off from yesterday)

You better keep calling to Maxis for   

Just confirmed router replacement tomorrow. But i told them go play far far if replace the same model.

Is everyone having this Incredible Ping reading or just me riding on turtle?
I'm still with the OLD Thomson router Btw...

modem signal look fine?

eInternet u r referring to ?

I had the exact same problem but i actually planned to use custom router already before this... so initially my setting was that i connect my wan port of my asus router to the lan of the thomson router... since stupid thomson router let me down i just directly configure ppoe in my asus router and connect to btu direct but still waiting for maxis to get back to me so i can use my freaking VOIP... =.=

My modem and router is on timer. Auto off at 1.30am and auto on at 6am 24/7. So far no restart problem.

If Astro alone, I have to pay extra RM20 for HD service (Astro Byond).

But with this package, no need to pay extra RM20 as I usually do.

Another thing, when raining, still got coverage because using IPTV (broadband).
Just my concerns is that is Maxis fibre good? Currently using Unifi and so happy about it..
