I have tried a hard reset, a factory reset and adjusting the settings so my bandwidth heavy devices are in the DMZ still not great

No hard resets needed

Once it became unstable, I usually could not access the management console (would get some firmware upload page or wrong credential message instead) and I would have to do another hard reset (this happened multiple times).

Initially tried changing the router IP to 192.168.1.201 which didn't work and required the reset to gain control of the router.

Crashing, requiring a "HARD - RESET" then re-configuring the TEW-818DRU.This has happened 3 times during the last few days

This router seems to only do a proper DHCP request to my cablemodem after a hard reset (which restores factory default settings).

I attempted to: "Import Settings" previously saved once, but that again lead to having to do a "Hard Reset" to recover access to the Router

After fooling with this problem for over two hours, I finally wrote down all of the WAN connection parameters (from a reboot after hard reset) and configured the router for a static IP address WITH THE SETTINGS THAT I HAD RECORDED

It also did a hard reset but I realized it was me (boy really making rethink my major), now that I'm not doing

Attempting to update the firmware causes it to freeze requiring a hard reset.

Hard reset

do a hard reset on router which means you'll need to know the original router password that came with your router password should be on a paper on the bottom of the modem.5

After multiple hard resets and attempts to fix, every time I would set it up and thought it was good to go, it would become unstable within an hour.

"IF" there is no configuration changes are made and all settings are left as "default", but then why have an Administration web interface that allows configuration changes if we can't make simple changes without the router locking up to the point that a Hard-Reset is required to get the router working again?{Original Review}Just installed last night and so far I really like this Router.

It goes down regularly; requires hard reset on nearly a monthly basis.

The second unit had exactly the same issues after trying multiple hard resets, troubleshooting various settings, and re-flashing the firmware.

TEW-818DRU - Crashing, requiring a "Hard - Reset" Issues

After several refreshes, I'm taken back to the:TRENDnet - CFE miniWeb ServeI finally had to do a hard reset with the reset button on the bottom of the TEW-818Reset up the router

Pros: Gig-E ports, compact, light, cool

Average throughput right now is 1MB/s, although it has operated as fast as 10MB/s at times.

Variance (sudden transient dips in signal strength) were especially troublesome while streaming audio/video signals through media devices and “smart” TV’s.

We have two iPhones, two iPads, two laptops, one desktop, a Surface Pro4, smart TV’s and smart thermostat

As of today I have the following WiFi-enabled devices at home: 2 Smart TV’s; 5 Smartphones; 3 wireless tablets; 3 laptops; a graphics desktop computer; 3 wireless TiVo’s; 5 wireless printers; a WiFi garage door opener; a WiFi thermostat; two types of video security systems plus a WiFi enabled perimeter alarm system; a WiFi multi-room audio system; 3 digital cameras that utilize WiFi, 2 Harmony WiFi remote control systems and yes even more.

Pros: Gig-E ports, compact, light, cool

But setting the schedules needed were next to impossible t after over two hours of trying, and I'm not exactly a novice

n’t work at all now.
