Question

Hello I have a RUT955 that keeps resetting the access point, each time it connects to a gateway, or it fails over.

Is there a way to prevent from AP getting reset? I have instruments connecting to the AP that must share information and each time the AP gets reset my line stops because the different devices reconnect at different times.

I am using firmware  RUT9XX_R_00.06.09.2, and the newer ones will not load.

Current Firmware Information

Firmware version	RUT9XX_R_00.06.09.2
Firmware build date	2022-06-20, 07:18:07
Kernel version	3.18.44
Bootloader version	3.0.1

Is there a way to get in touch with support directly?

Answer 1

Hello,

This is simply how the wireless operates.

Both, access point and client interfaces use the same radio device. When RUT950 connects to the access point as a client, physical radio is restarted in order to create a new logical interface, reconfigure it and apply new settings.

The solution to avoid this would be to either use a device with two separate radios, for example, one for 2.4GHz, the other for 5GHz, or have a second device, to perform the role of an access point or a client station only.

Best regards,

Add a Wifi-USB dongle, to have a second, independent wifi-interface.
