Well I have been totally puzzled lately. After my WRT1900AC Wireless Router has been installed for 3 months working great, Wham. I opened up Safari in the morning 2 days ago and it took me right into setup for the modem, none of my settings were there. I have nine security cameras all with fixed IP and port forwarding blah blah blah. So I restored the latest .cfg file. The **bleep** thing was crazy. Even thought I had assigned DHCP reserved IPs it would give it random IPs. Crazy. Well nothing was working, some pages in the web setup were even blank. I restored last firmware, set to default and so on and nothing was working. Well I even set it up from scratch, and it was still crazy, nothing was working. Well I needed my system back up so I FedEx'd a new WRT1900AC in. I decided to re-setup the entire router just in case, BTW I am getting good at this, it only takes 30 mins now :-), Everything was great, back in business !! Here is the part where the Twilight Zone kicks in. I decided to put the old crazy router back in the network system and set to defaultbefore sending into Linksys. Just for kicks I restored the new router .cfg I had saved. Well you guessed it, all worked great in the old crazy router. No issues
Moral of the story, when messin' with WRT1900AC routers have plenty of adult beverages handy !!
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. I am totally confused.
Thanks,
M
