I have a specific set of problems that I can't seem to solve no matter what. My internet will disconnect every 30 minutes or so and will not reconnect unless I reset the router.
My phone/tablet will ONLY connect to the WiFi within 5 minutes (ish) of that reset. Even then when they have connected, only Facebook Messenger will work, no other internet using app will at all.
I cannot access the routers settings except within this 5 minute frame, any other time I try to, I time out. It is not limited to a specific device either, anyone who connects is the same.
This seemed to start around the time I enabled access control to prioritise my computer so that I could work. After I was finished, I disabled access control.
Is this a case of my router being tired? Or did I make a mistake when I enabled access control? I'd rather know if theres anything else I can do before splashing out on a new one only to have the same problem again.
Thanks in advance.
