TP-Link TL-WR841N: periodically the Internet disappears over the cable on a computer
As I have already mentioned in the topic, periodically I lose internet on the computer connected via cable.
Tp-link TL-WR841N, consumers are connected to it via wi-fi. No big problems, though sometimes it takes a long time to get an ip address….
But the computer with WinXP, connected via cable, periodically loses internet. This was not observed with the old one. Switching the cable to another port (arbitrary, not any specific one) helps.
How can I overcome the problem?
Thank you very much!

Good day. It’s bad that you didn’t write down how exactly the internet disappears. What is the status of the connection: no internet access, or the connection is completely lost, as if the cable is not connected.
I would start by updating the TP-Link TL-WR841N firmware. It would be good to understand what the problem is: the router or the PC. You wrote that you had no problems with the old router. So, most likely, it’s something in the router. Is there no possibility to connect other devices via cable?
