A modem is a multifunctional "combine" that must provide uninterrupted communication 24 hours a day. Unfortunately, it is not always possible to maintain such a work schedule. The modem, as a high-tech device, is often prone to malfunction. To minimize these unpleasant moments in life, we will consider a few basic provisions on this issue. The idea was born after many applications began to arrive for a technical malfunction of these devices.
1. USB modems are a thing of the past. You should not count on stable high-speed Internet from a device powered by a USB flash drive connector. USB power is a very unreliable thing. After all, modems are very sensitive to power. Moreover, USB modems are half software (the drivers on the disk are this software), so stability directly depends on the state of the operating system.
2. Power failure. So, getting rid of the USB misunderstanding, we unpack network router(yes, yes, we now have not just some kind of “modem”). However, gaps do exist. First you need to exclude the version of the failed "pitalov". Climbing into the outlet, of course, is not necessary. To begin with, we try to use other sockets, in different parts of the room. We especially avoid those that, when plugged into it, the plugs begin to spark. The modem should be connected through the network filter ("Pilot"). You should also check the power supply itself for twists. damage and connection integrity.
3. A sharp blackout. This part is the logical conclusion of the second paragraph. If you do not have a UPS, then the likelihood that the housing department will give you trouble is very high. With such a power surge, the flash memory of the modems is reset to zero. In it, as you may have guessed, our settings are stored. It is difficult to insure against such a turn of events, so it just needs to be borne in mind.
4. Overheating. Fortunately, this type of “disorder” is gradually becoming a thing of the past. But still, this option should not be discarded. How hot does a modem “must” be to qualify it as warm? If the hand does not hold for more than 5 seconds (on average) - it is worth considering. Especially if after rebooting the modem it works quite stably for some time. There are three options for solving the problem. The first is to personally organize additional cooling for your router, or periodically turn it off for a while. If this option does not suit you, then hand over the modem to Service center and under warranty, or for their hard-earned money to organize repairs. The third is to simply change the modem.
4. Firmware. Gaps are also of a “software” nature, that is, due to poor-quality or simply “raw” firmware for your modem. To avoid trouble, you should only use official firmware provided by the supplier. They can always be found on the official website. Acorp 120 / 420 modems suffered the most from this, which reset the settings to "default" each time the router was rebooted. Everything was solved by flashing the modem. ATTENTION! If you are not confident in your technical skills, then you should not update the modem software yourself; if the outcome is unsuccessful, there is a high probability of ruining the modem completely.
5. Age. Nothing lasts forever in this world. This is especially true for devices that work almost non-stop. Modems "live" in different ways. From 1.5 to 5 years. SpeedTouch and Zyxel network modems are particularly resistant. Here, of course, everything is strictly individual. As already noted, modem aging can be determined by the gradual “fading” of one of the main parameters of the SN Margin line (AKA Signal or Noise Margin or Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)), which can be tracked in the modem status.
These are the five main provisions that are worth considering, if you suddenly experience the bitterness of disconnects, then quickly going through this chapter you can determine in which direction to dig. Happy digging, Cya!
Hello friends! Wi-Fi Internet now you won’t surprise anyone, it is in almost every office, store, cafe and actively appears in homes. Big choice routers and their low price only contribute to such an active installation wireless points access. Almost everyone can afford to buy a router and install it at home, because it is very convenient and not expensive.
And if routers have become very popular, then the issue of setting up, connecting, breaking down, etc. of these same routers has become relevant. If I have already written a lot of articles on connection, settings and various errors that you can read in the ““ category, then today I want to talk about the most popular breakdowns wifi router ov and give some tips that will help you fix the device, or simply determine the cause.
There are a lot of comments left on this site about various problems with routers. And very often the cause of some error is not the settings (as many people think), namely technical problems in the router itself (in hardware).
Today I want to talk about problems that appear unexpectedly. Like this? Well, the router worked fine for itself, distributed Wi-Fi, pleased everyone :), and then once it stopped working. It doesn't matter how it stopped working completely, or just not the way it should work. The main thing is that he used to work well and stopped working on his own. (You have not changed any settings).
It’s just that those problems that appear during the first setup of the router most likely arise through correct settings.
The router does not respond to the connection to the mains
I'm sorry, but your router is most likely completely "dead". On every router (well, almost everyone) There are performance indicators.
And if, when the device is connected to the outlet, these indenters do not get hot, then this is very bad.
What can be done?
Well, first check if there is a power off button on the router. Here is such a button on the TP-LINK TL-MR3220:
If the button is on, then you need to check the power supply, maybe it's in it. Usually, power supplies burn out more often than the routers themselves. Perhaps the neighbors have the same router, run and ask for a couple of minutes.
If the device still does not work, then return it under warranty. And if there is no guarantee, then it is better to throw it away and buy a new one than to give it for a paid repair. Although, you can take it to the workshop, it may not be very expensive to repair it.
Why is this happening?
For many reasons. A manufacturing defect is possible, but most likely the router burned out due to unstable mains voltage, a thunderstorm, or moisture. If possible, connect the router through a voltage stabilizer. Well, or just turn it off when you see that there will be a thunderstorm now.
This was the most severe case, now let's look at lighter breakdowns.
The router stopped working, does not distribute the Internet
If suddenly there was a problem with Wi-Fi, for example, all devices stopped connecting to the router, there is a connection, but the Internet does not work, etc. then do not rush to throw your router out the window :).
First you need to find out that the problem is really in the router, and not in the device you are trying to connect. How? Just try to connect another device (laptop, tablet, phone). If only one device does not connect, then the problem is most likely in it. Well, you understand what I mean.
The problem is in the router, what needs to be checked and how to solve the problem?
- Do not rush to immediately go into the router settings and immediately change something there. And then set it up in such a way that it will definitely not work. Believe me, I'm not just writing this :).
- Reboot your router. Restart your computer (phone, tablet).
- Call your ISP and ask if there is a problem on their end. Explain your problem to them. Perhaps the Internet is not working due to problems in the provider's equipment.
- Check if you have paid for the Internet and whether it is active (You can also ask your ISP for this).
- Check all connections. Internet cable that connects to the router. It is advisable to check this cable outside the apartment (house). Maybe you just cut the cable. On purpose or by accident, it happens.
- Look at the case of the router, maybe there are some interesting buttons that someone accidentally switched. For example, there may be a shutdown button WiFi module. If you press it, the devices will not see your wireless network.
- Go to the router settings and see if the settings have been lost. This may be the Internet will not work. Especially, check the WAN tab, where the settings are from the provider. If it crashes, set it up again. Here is an example article for you.
- Try changing the channel in your router settings. Here is a detailed article. How might this affect obscure Wi-Fi issues? Perhaps your neighbors have installed a router and not one, I will introduce neighbors from above, below, on the sides. And just all the channels (or the one you are on) busy. That's when the problems begin, which are even difficult to explain.
Have you tried everything and nothing helps?
Then, I advise you to give the router for repair, again under warranty. And if there is no guarantee, then for a paid repair, or buy a new one. Before that, you can ask a friend who understands this matter (if there is one) so that he looks at the router, settings and connection.
Real case. My TP-LINK TL-MR3220 router worked fine for several months. Then, suddenly, it stopped detecting the connection of a 3G modem. I connected different modems, the modem is powered, but it does not appear in the control panel. I tried everything, even the special firmware that TP-LINK support sent me - did not help. You can read more in the article.
This is what I mean if it happens technical problem in the router (there's something going on there), this does not mean that it simply will not turn on. It can work, but it doesn't work the way it's supposed to. And it can be very long and painful to set up, flash, check, etc.
Don't suffer. You paid money for this device. Call the support of the manufacturer of the router, explain the problem to them. I'm sure no one will give you best advice than they are.
If support cannot help you over the phone, they will advise you to apply for a warranty (if any). And there it is up to you to decide whether to go for repairs, or buy a new device.
What to do if the router settings are lost? It is this question that can be most often found on various forums and sites that are devoted to network technologies. It should immediately be said that this problem should not be feared, since it is easily solved, plus it is not a problem as such.
In this article, we will take a look at some of the interesting questions on this topic: why the router settings go astray, what to do in this case, and how to set up a failed router in a new way.
Why is the router crashing?
To begin with, let's try to answer a simple, but at the same time vague question - why does the router go astray? In fact, there is no one specific reason. A lot of things could serve for this: a failure during the operation of the router itself, careless user actions with the reset button on the device case, accidentally not saved settings, etc.
In general, as you might have guessed, determining the reason why a Wi-Fi router has gone astray is quite difficult. But, in order to fix this mess, you don’t need to look for the cause, since in this case it remains only to configure the router again. It is to this point that we now turn.
How to set up a failed router?
So the settings on your wifi router e were reset to factory values, which, of course, is absolutely unacceptable and something needs to be done about it. If you yourself have configured your router, you should already know necessary steps for your actions: correctly connect the router to the computer, go to the web interface of the device, select the desired type network connection and set up a Wi-Fi network.
Describing in detail all the steps for setting up a router is such an amount of material that is enough to write an entire article. However, it is exactly what you can find on our website.
It remains for us to answer the last question - what to do if the settings of the Tp-Link router are lost? Routers from this manufacturer are perhaps the most popular choice of users. However, the tp link router goes astray for exactly the same reasons as all other routers, and you can configure it using the article already mentioned above.
Outcome
Well, let's summarize. If your router settings are lost, then you have no choice but to reconfigure it. We also recommend that you carefully examine the case of the router to find the Reset or Reset button on it.
Perhaps you clicked on it by accident, after which the device settings, as expected, were reset. If such a button is found, then for the future you will already know that you need to interact with the router more carefully, especially for those who have this button located next to the button or power cable.

Hello! Today I decided to write a short article in which I will tell you what mistake is most often made when self setting routers. What problems appear later and how to fix it. Where do I get all this information from?
Look now a little to the right, in the right column of the site. You see, there is the total number of comments that are left on this site. I don’t know what number you see there now, but on this moment it's almost 9000 comments (to be precise, 8894).
Almost all comments are questions that I had to answer, give some advice, give a link to the desired article, etc. What am I getting at, these comments are a great source of unique information both for me and for visitors to this site. These are unique cases, I would even say vital problems :).
Also, most of these comments relate to problems that arise during the configuration and operation of routers, wireless adapters, WiFi networks etc. So I drew some conclusions from these comments, and from the articles that relate to this most popular mistake.
Network without internet access
Yes, this is the most common problem. I wrote about her in an article. By the way, the article is also no less popular :).
Why does this problem occur and why is it the most popular?
It usually occurs due to the exact fact that when configuring the router incorrectly indicate the parameters provided by the provider.
Also, pay attention to the binding MAC address y. If the provider does it, then do not forget to clone the MAC address in the router settings. Only clone from the computer to which the Internet was attached.
Also, in the properties Wireless network connection , or Connection via local network V Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) you need to set to receive IP and DNS automatically.
Here is the most common mistake and its solution.
And one more important point
If you have a provider for which a special connection was created on the computer before installing the router, and after installing the router, the Internet works only on one computer, or works while this computer is turned on, then something needs to be clarified.
You see, the router itself must establish a connection to the Internet, not the computer. On the computer, you need to delete the previously created connection. And in the properties network adapter set to receive IP and DNS automatically.
All parameters that the provider provides are specified only in the router settings. Connection on a computer, if you have a router, is not necessary.
I also wrote an article on this issue.
Afterword
I don’t know how useful this article was for you, but I hope that I didn’t waste my time.
Before setting up the router, the main thing is to understand how it works and specify the correct settings that the provider gave you when you connected to the Internet. If you do not know what parameters to specify and what to choose, then just call the provider and ask.
As always, ask questions in the comments, we will understand. Best wishes!
The Internet and interactive television by Rostelecom have long been offered to the company's customers in combination with a router. The provider uses network equipment from manufacturers such as TP Link, D Link, Fast, Huawei, QBR and Asus. General scheme their settings are roughly the same, but some settings are still different.
What to do if the router settings are lost?
If there are power outages, viruses enter the router, or the router is reconnected, all settings are lost. To return the equipment to a working state, it is necessary to carry out the configuration, during which data are entered and the necessary parameters are selected. In some cases it is required full reset router and repeat the above steps. If necessary, you can always contact the support hotline.
How to enter the settings of the Rostelecom router if all the parameters have gone wrong? First you need to make sure that the cable leading to the computer is connected to the equipment. If the connection is detected and works without interruption, the username and password are entered, which are located on the sticker on the bottom of the router. If the network data has been changed, due to which the connection is unavailable, you need to reset the router to the default settings, which is done by the "Reset" button (hereinafter - without quotes).
After a successful connection, go to the browser and enter in address bar 192.168.1.1 or ip address indicated on the sticker. In the form that appears, in the fields, type " admin" (password may be " 1234 "). As a result, the required network equipment interface will appear. It sets the Internet connection data, from your contract with the company, the ability to change the name and password of the network, as well as Extra options, which already have the required values. It remains only to save all the information and use Wi-Fi in the apartment.
9 instructions for setting up Wi-Fi routers Rostelecom
Each model of Wi-Fi router comes with setup instructions. The general algorithm for establishing a connection is the same, however, there are individual features of each of the devices, which will be discussed below.
Setting up TP Link TD w8901, w8901n, w8961n, w8968
TP Link router connection status windowSetting up Wi-Fi routers TP Link TD for Rostelecom proceeds in exactly the same way. The point is that they use the same interface. How to connect the device to the network was partially described in the previous section.
To get into the interface of the TP Link router, you need to enter 192.168.0.1 or tplinklogin.net into the address bar of the browser. In the right menu, select "Network", then "WAN". In the field "Type of WAN connection" is set to " PPPoE (RussiaPPPoE)", login and password of Rostelecom are entered. Next, you need to click "Connect", and after it - "Save". As a result, the TP Link TD interface will display the "Connected" status.

D Link Dir 615
Main interface window of router D Link Dir-615 The first of the D Link devices will be the Dir 615 router, which is configured through a special Web interface. Before entering it, the system will prompt you to fill in the fields "Login" and "Password", in both of which you need to enter " admin". The very setup of the d link router for Rostelecom is the easiest option if you are not a pro.
Entering the interface, you need to immediately change the language to Russian in the "Language" tab and select the appropriate item. Below is the item "Advanced settings", which you need to click on. On the screen that appears, select "WAN" under the "Network" heading. The “Add” button will appear at the bottom right, where you need to select the type of PPPoE connection, the Internet port, enter the network name, Rostelecom login and password. In the "Service Name" field, enter " Internet”, the LCP interval is set to 15 and the dips to 2.

Important! The Rostelecom set-top box through the D Link Dir 615 router can be configured through the IPTV setup wizard, where the receiving device and the corresponding port are selected.
D Link Dir 300
Setting up the Rostelecom D Link Dir 300 router is generally very similar to the previous procedure, but has a number of differences. Logging into the Web interface is carried out in a similar way. Under the "Network" tab, select "WAN", after which the page familiar from Dir 615 will appear. The difference from it is that in the "Port" item, you must select not Internet, but Ports: 5, 2 (numbers may differ). The rest of the parameters, except for the Rostelecom login and password, are not required to be entered. The way how to connect IPTV through a router was said earlier, so there is no need to describe the procedure again.

D Link DSL 2640u, DSL 2500u
The question of how to set up D Link Dir series Wi-Fi routers was discussed in the two previous paragraphs. As for the DIR DSL series, working with it is somewhat different from the previous options.

After entering the interface, you need to click on the "Click'n'Connect" item. The system will start ADSL setup. Sequentially, you need to select the type of PPPoE, enter the values 0 And 33 in the columns "VPI" and "VCI", respectively, click "Next" until a connection message appears. The remaining fields are filled in exactly the same way as in other D Link routers.
Sagemcom Fast 1744 v2, Fast 2804 v7
LAN interface window in Sagemcom Fast routers. Configuring the Rostelecom Sagemcom Fast 1744 v2 router does not cause any particular difficulties, however, its Web interface is somewhat confusing, due to which this process takes a lot of time. Access to it is carried out by analogy with D Link DSL 2640u. First of all, delete the PPP connection, which is set by default by the router (in latest versions firmware Fast 1744 v2 it is missing). To do this, go to "Advanced Settings" and select "WAN Service". The list will contain one connection, which must be deleted. Next, go back one step and click on the “Layer 2 Interface” tab, under which “ATM PVC Interface” will appear. Here you also need to delete the only existing item.

In place of the remote connection, click the "Add" button to create a new one. For Rostelecom, the VPI and VCI parameters are set as 0 and 33, respectively. The DSL Link type must remain EoA as it conforms to PPPoE. After clicking the "Apply" button, you need to create a new connection in Fast 1744 v2. To do this, in the window that appears, click next (if the atm0 interface is not selected, but find it in the drop-down list). In the configuration that appears, select "PPP over Ethernet" and click "Next", and then - "Apply". The system will prompt you to enter the Rostelecom login and password, as well as the network name. After several clicks on "Next" and "Apply", the configuration of the Sanjemkom Fast 1744 v2 router will be completed.
Note! After the next “Next”, in some Fast 1744 v2 firmware, the “Enable NAT” item appears, as well as the “Enable Firewall” accompanying it, on which you also need to leave a checkmark.
Internet connection window in Asus RT N12 router. Setting up the Asus RT N12 router is one of the easiest among the devices in question. After entering the interface, you need to click "Internet Setup", and all the necessary fields immediately appear in front of the user. Select the connection type "PPPoE".
Video: ASUS RT-N12 Connection and setup.
After it, in the first, second, fourth and fifth paragraphs, put the value " Yes", in third - " No». A little lower - the login and password of Rostelecom and save the changes. For detailed settings (protection type, network name and password) from the main screen of the interface, you can go to the "Router Setup" tab.
Download latest firmware for ASUS RT-N12 You can follow the link from the official site of asus.
The window for entering the login and password for connecting to the Rostelecom network in the router Zyxel Keenetic DSL. The question of how to set up a Rostelecom Zyxel Keenetic DSL router rests on the firmware version that is installed on the device. Older versions work with interface password " 1234
", and new ones with "admin". In addition, the difference lies in the location of the menu items and the absence of the "IPv6" tab. Otherwise, the order is identical. The web interface is available at my.keenetic.net (sometimes not working) and 192.168.1.1. Having opened the sections "Internet", "ADSL" one by one, proceed to filling out the form. In the fields "VPI" and "VCI" set the standard values 0
And 33
, and the encapsulation type is "LLC".
Important! Do not forget to check the box "Use to access the Internet." After saving the data, go to the tab " PPPoE/VPN". Only all the main fields are filled here, as in routers from other manufacturers. It is important not to forget to check the box "Enable".

Video: QTECH QBR-2041WW universal router setup in Routing mode when using PPPoE.
Access to the interface is carried out at the standard address using the login and password "admin". In the "Interface Settings" tab in the "Internet" section, all the necessary items appear at once. The permanent virtual circuit must remain at " 1
". "VPI" and "VCI" are set to the usual values of 0 and 33. Encapsulation is "PPPoA/PPPoE". Next, the login and password of Rostelecom are indicated, “DHCP IPv6 mode” is set with the checkbox “ SLAAC", and "Enable DCHP PD" - with a checkmark "Disable". After these interactions with 2041ww, the setup is complete.
The main settings window of the Huawei HG8245H router for working with the Rostelecom provider. Setting up the Huawei HG8245H router is as easy as the QBR 2041ww. To get into the Web interface, after going to the interface page, enter one of the login and password combinations, of which there are two options: “telecomadmin” and “admintelecom”, “root” and “admin”.

To set the required port for redirecting the signal to the set-top box, in the settings, select the port to which the cable connecting the set-top box and router is connected. Not all routers can be configured with IPTV, cheap device models do not support this feature.
Instead of a conclusion
Thus, the article makes it clear how to enter the settings of the Rostelecom router, how the Internet is connected through this network equipment, and what to do if the device parameters are lost. After you have set up your Wi-Fi router, check your internet connection speed. Perhaps your device is outdated and cuts the speed, then it will differ from the one declared in the tariff. IN modern world setting wifi router this process is so frequent that it would not be advisable to invite the ad master every time. Our instructions will help you avoid problems with the operation of the device and access to the network.
