 | [IA] DHCP Renew - Every 5 minutes - RT-N56U My router has been disconnecting every 5 minutes, renewing the dhcp constantly almost quicker than 5 minutes.
It is paired with a Linksys CM100 Modem. (The Asus RT-N56U)
It's beginning to be intolerable. I've had this modem/router for several months and this problem sometimes happens, but never like this.
Here's the general log. Feb 7 19:09:50 detectWAN: perform DHCP release Feb 7 19:09:50 RT-N56U: udhcpc starts Feb 7 19:09:50 dhcp client: deconfig: lease is lost Feb 7 19:09:50 kernel: ip_table: set wan_name=eth3 Feb 7 19:09:50 kernel: [K] track_flag=1, clean_flag=1, mm_flag=0, ipaddr=0 Feb 7 19:09:50 kernel: [K] track_flag=1, clean_flag=0, mm_flag=0, ipaddr=0 Feb 7 19:09:50 WAN Connection: WAN was exceptionally disconnected. Feb 7 19:09:51 kernel: ip_table: set wan_name=eth3 Feb 7 19:09:51 detectWAN: perform DHCP renew |

Are you losing connection on all of your computers at the same time? If you would like to shoot me a message with your account info, I can double check nothing is wrong on the modem end. |

 | Im not sure. I have my PC connected via ethernet cable and the rest are wireless.
I gotta go to work but Ill check back afterwards.
I imagine if the router is renewing the DHCP then all computers would lose connection.
I'm thinking the modem clashes with the router, but I dont want to replace it unless I know for sure, and what one to get to replace it. |

 | reply to Seth I have the same router. Rock solid.
Sounds like a upstream connection/modem issue.
Is the modem rebooting?

 | The modem requires, most of the time, a power cycle.
Re-configuring the automatic IP fixes it a lot as well. |
|
 | What modem do you have the RT-n56u paired with? |
|
 | reply to Seth I'm having very similar issues over the last week or so. My Modem is a Cisco DPC3000 and I have a Asus RT-N13U. |
