Hi All

I have done my own network setup at our family guesthouse property which was working perfectly fine for over a year and now started giving trouble.

The reason being the property is quite large and due to the age the walls are quite thick with a corrugated iron roof. Makes any wifi extender / antennas useless.

Here is my setup

- 200mb/s Fiber line from ISP

- Connected directly to the Fiber line is the TOTOLINK Router (AC1200) provided by the ISP. (MAIN ROUTER)

- From the Router I have a network cable that runs to the second router (TP Link Archer AX1500) (ROUTER 1) This router is setup as a router (not a Access point) With a dynamic IP. No other settings changed on the router.

- From Router 1 I have a network cable that runs to another TP Link Archer Ax20 (ROUTER 2)

- Router 2 is setup as a router (not access point) with dynamic IP. No other settings changed on the router.

Frim Router 2 I followed the same setup as above and in total I have 7 routers connected via network cable from one to the other. All routers are TP Link either Archer Ax20 or Archer AX1500)

All routers are setup as Routers (not Access points) All IPs dynamic. No other settings changed on the router.

I also have about 6 x TP Link Deco devices that are connected to one of the routers offering increased wifi signal in that section of the property. I did not change any of the advanced settings on the Deco devices.

I am getting a lot of dropped connections. The Speed tests fine at around 180 / 190 mb/s and then the connection drops.

Is there a way to alter the settings on the routers installed to try to prevent IP conflicts / wifi conflicts which i believe is resulting in the dropped connections.

I have done firmware upgrades on all routers and the ISP was at the property to test the fiber line but could not find any faults.

I would greatly appreciate any help / advice.

Thanks!
