[Q] Linksys WRT610n, Lumia 920&people hub

[leifage]

A few days ago i got my Lumia 920, and pretty soon i discovered a networking problem. When i am connected to my homenetwork, the people hub refuses to update facebook-streams. Sometimes it does, but most of the times its just "looking for updates". I have this problem only when i'm home. When connected to the wireless network at work, it works just fine - it's fast and updates every time.

I guess there is some parameter on my router that the phone does not like, but i dont have any clue what it could be. I'm running the newest firmware, no security is enabled. The problem is on both 2,4 ghz and 5 ghz.

I run "dhcp-reservations" so the phone gets the same ip every time - i also tried without reserving a specific ip to the phone. It has no effect on my problem.

I tried to enable the log, but the log is not very informative - its just telling what IP-adresses its trying to access.

This is the first device i have that is having a problem with my router. I have had three windows phone devices before, i have had iphone and one android phone, and of course laptops. I have never experienced this problem.

Would be very thankful for help solving this. I am not skilful enough to figure out what could be the problem. It works like a charm "everywhere" except when i'm home - so it must be my router that it does not like.

920 and WRT610n

I have a 920 and a wrt610n as well. A while back, I reflashed the firmware on my router with a third party open source product from dd-wrt.com. The firmware provides a lot more options for the router, and may help with your issue. I used the "mega generic" version of the firmware. Follow the setup carefully and let me know if you have and issues. :fingers-crossed:

I have exactly the same problem with WRT610n! Hope there's somebody can provide a solution...

Sorry to bring it to u guys, but some particular brands do not "like" each other. For instance, D-Link has an issue with iPhones and iPads, now this has issues with Lumias...
Possibly some reflashing of the router might get the things done, I cannot tell. I have a WR240G - and it works perfectly with every device, except for iPhone5 (in order to work with it, all security must be shut down)
