I have been seeing periodic drops in internet access from LAN connected devices lately (last 2 months), and I haven’t been able to figure about exactly what is going on. There doesn’t seem to be a pattern, and it resolves itself after a few hours.

  • I can access the internet from my router
  • All devices on LAN can reach each other, both wired and WiFi
  • All devices on LAN can reach router, both wired and WiFi
  • I haven’t changed anything in router settings
  • I haven’t added new devices to my local network
  • I can’t find any IP conflicts
  • It’s a simple flat network with two APs, a single switch, no VLAN separation

    The basic workflow of network troubleshooting is:

    1. Check if it’s a DNS problem
    2. If not, check why it is a DNS problem anyway, but you failed to recognize it.
