Request router replacement

bearbear71 — Thu, 02 Jun 2022 13:46:08 GMT

I need a new internet router. I called the customer support, but they don't speak English.

I got an internet router from Vodafone and it was working fine until recently. It began disconnecting randomly and without warning, I followed the steps to try and repair it, even resetting it to factory settings but it did not fix anything.

Hello R4mona, here are my answers, I also log the event for the router if will provide any help, thank you.

What contract do you have? ( Vodafone CableMax1000
Which modem/ router are you using? Vodafone standard WiFi cable router
Do you use a rental device from us or do you have your own device ? Vodafone rental
Which error occurs? Freezing and random disconnects of the router, the router will reset by itself and completely disconnect the wifi and the LAN, otherwise the speeds are normal.
How is your device connected to the modem ? LAN and WiFi
Which browser do you usually use? Chrome
Which operating system do you have on your computer? Windows
Start and period of the disruption (eg: since the beginning of April; only in the evening) Since May 25th
Also upload a screenshot of the signal values . You can find this in the user interface of your cable router via 192.168.0.1 or via 192.168.178.1 on the Fritzbox. Unsure how to get these values.
What measures were taken by the fault hotline (available at 0800-5266625)? My german is fairly poor so I was unable to use this.
In which state do you live? Baden-Wuerttemberg

Hello MariaK,

PN has been sent. I have found that every time the internet becomes disconnected, both LAN and WiFi, this appears in the logs of the router.

Hello bearbear71,

Thank you for your message. I have looked at your connection and some values are out of tolerance. That's why I have now created a technician ticket. This will now be forwarded to our technical service partner. They will first try to solve the problem remotely within the next 48 hours. If this is successful, you will receive a notification by SMS. If this was not possible remotely, a technician will contact you.

Best regards,

Maria

Hello MariaK,

The technician came by but found no issue with the connection to our building, he reset our router (which I have already tried) and while testing it the issue persists (see attached event log). I believe this is an issue with the router itself as the technician confirmed there was no direct issue with the buildings connection.

Hello Carrasco,

I've looked at the ticket. According to the technician, everything should actually work. If it doesn't, unfortunately we only have 2 options:

- Replace the router

- create a new ticket

Unfortunately we cannot do anything else.

Many greetings,

Maria

I understand, I believe a router replacement would be best as the technician was very thorough here.

No problem. I have now sent you a new router. Please send the old router back to us as soon as possible.

The new router has fixed the issue, it seems to be a brand new model with completely different Firmware as well. Thank you.
