Re: Disconnects: firewall Learning mode and new rules didn't fix disconnect prob. Stopped firewall all together still disconnects. Got my buddy, real smart computer dude, to connect remotely to my pc and found out sporadic (but regular) incoming transmissions on ethernet link failing. Also found speed low versus what I'm paying for. He did all kinds of diagnosis and issue is with fiber internet provider equipment. They will be here on Sunday with new equipment and to do line testing. What an adventure.... whew.. and yes, I keep forgetting.. if it can go wrong, it will at my house...
8-10-2020 Update... internet provider replaced fiber modem.. speed sags still present and after more testing speed sags present at the vendors box on the street and not in fiber to my house or new modem... old router slowing things down especially on WIFI and somewhat on ethernet connection... discussing new router options with my computer buddy... transmission failures disappeared... will follow up with internet provider in a few days.. hopefully they will get on the issue with speed sags at street box in a timely manner... they did credit my account significantly for the speed issues.
