Re: Multiple Networks in Windows 8

Can i just come back to this please? I've finally had some time to do some work on it. Couldn't solve it on my in-use wndr3700v4 - I was sitting thinking about it and I have a spare wndr3700v4 so I grabbed that, connected it only to my laptop (no WAN for simplicity, just ethernet to port 1 and power...

Re: Multiple Networks in Windows 8

Yes I'm familiar with reinstalling the stock firmware via tftp so I'll give that a go, I remember when I first set this up, swapping back to the Netgear FW in this way so I'll give that another go and see what happens - bit of a chore as I don't restore backups but it'll be worth it if it solves thi...

Re: Multiple Networks in Windows 8

So the first thing I did was this: uci set network.lan.macaddr='AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF' uci commit restarted, MAC address updated in Gargoyle but I still had the same issue, so I did: Edit the /etc/config/network file and add this setting to the LAN section (change the letters AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF to the de...

Multiple Networks in Windows 8

I have a wndr3700v4 running 1.12 Have it set to daily reboot as I have a WiFi bug which means that my WiFi will drop out eventually without the reboots. Thing is, every time it reboots, Windows is detecting it as a brand new device/network (public) and asks if I want to enable sharing? Whereas on my...

Disable Ipv6?

Hello :) I've got 2 unknown ipv6 connections showing up in my "connected hosts" list but they are definitely not my devices :( I've changed my wlan password (psk2) and they're still showing up; is there a way to disable Ipv6 all together?


Many thanks 🙏

Re: WNDR3700v4 Wireless Dropouts *UPDATE*

Just a little further update, sorry for the delay but as the cliche goes: no news is good news, right?! Setting up a daily reboot schedule is what solved the problem, I have had zero dropouts since doing so, absolutely none. If anyone else is having the same issue, give it a go. I'm 99% sure it'll h...

Re: WNDR3700v4 Wireless Dropouts *UPDATE*

Just another quick update, I swapped to 20Mhz channel and set up a daily reboot schedule - so far so good, had no more dropouts so I'm happy to just leave it as is for now.

Thanks again 🙏
