D-Link DSL-2750U dropping connection frequently. Help please!

In the end, I changed the Wireless channel from 1 to 9 & there hasn't been a single wireless disconnect since then.

Great to know! Thanks for the info. Will try it my side too and see what happens.
 
I had two of these and they both were useless so I got the Netgear and it is working fine.
 
So far I haven't had any drops of late since changing to channel 9. Rather stoked!
 
I had similar issues with my aunt's Telkom DuoPlus 300WR ADSL modem, where the wireless constantly dropped when it was on ch6.
I then used WiFi Analyzer (Android app) to determine which channels are open and then used like 2 or 11 (can't remember which) and ever since the WiFi was reasonably stable again.
 
Sooo hoping this resolves my issue, have the exact same issue and when it DC's I have to reset the router actually, been having trouble for months, even made telkom replace my line totally, lol.

Still had issues, just updated my router with this firmware today so holding thumbs, however I can't seem to login to router now o.O
Keeps telling me wrong password, etc.

That's rather odd. My router for some odd reason went to a previous state and even changed from the 10.0.0.2 IP to D-Link traditional 192.168.1.1 the other day. So updated the firmware again and changed the router IP back. All along though, the U/P has remained "admin" all in lowercase.

Oh, that's just the normal thing when D-Link checks in on your router and doing the normal big brother thing. :D

Then again, I did do some testing for D-Link SA on their latest firmware so you never know hey...:erm:
 
can you upgrade a Telkom branded one to the latest firmware? because my wireless keeps dropping and it's starting to get annoying, especially with the modem RIGHT THERE and changing the channels only helps temporarily

The officially supported firmware is at Tellumat's website. I've tried both this one and the one from D-Link's website and seems like the D-Link one causes less drops. Also changed the channel, but still get drops :sick:
 
Hello all

Got one of these from Telkom the other day, I have a problem with it too, but it doesn't drop connection ( i think), basically i noticed today when i was playing online games ( first time with this router) all is fine lower latency bf3 get 9ms ping, blacklight 230ms ping, but after an hour or so both games ping skyrocket like a sonic jet to 800ms for about 2 minutes then come down.
Any solutions?

I dropped my D-Link after it dropped my wi-fi connection one time to many ;0) - dropped it off at the Telkom shop and picked up a Netgear.

Netgears are pretty good. My D-Link still running strong since the firmware update..
