Hey guys! I've exhausted my networking knowledge trying to solve this, maybe someone more savvy can help me out! I'll try to be as descriptive as possible.
I have my ISP modem connected to my own Asus RT-N13U rev B1 router with the latest stock firmware.
I have a PPoE connection and whenever i powercycle it, i have to manually "Acquire" an IP with the built-in tool. No problem's here, although it is annoying.
Every now and then, the connection drops. The router becomes unnacessible. If i try to reach the router, it times out. If i disconnect from the router's connection, it is impossible to connect again. Only a power-cycle will make it accessible. From my secular perspective i figure that the modem is flooding the router with IP change or renewal requests, breaking the whole thing down since it doesn't acquire without manual input in the first place. The whole thing happens seemingly at random, working for 3 days or more continously and then breaking down many times a day.
Would anyone have an idea of how i would be able to fix this problem? I will forward a few images of how the router configuration is set up, if it helps.
