I have set up my TP-Link WR841N v11 running DD-WRT v3.0-r46069 std into client mode. It's acting as a wireless extender, I have connected it to my main router and setup a virtual ap to use it.
Now it works but the devices connected to the router loose internet connectivity every 15 seconds. After a reboot the time interval changes and can be 5,6,8 seconds; quite random. During it's connection loss, the main router has internet. My main router is on 192.168.1.1 subnet and ddwrt router is on 192.168.2.1 subnet.
Also I understand that speed will be less but this one's actually slow. I tried enabling/disabling WMM support as my main router works fine but didn't help.
I tried changing the wireless modes and channel width, didn't help. My firewall is disabled. I have connected the router to my main router using a static ip, dhcp makes no difference. Router has almost full signal from main router.
My main router is TP-Link TD-W8968 running stock firmware.
Do you have any logs... otherwise we are just guessing and if you have done debugging you should know that non-consistent symptoms are hardest to diagnose.

Without details or logs we can only guess. If I have to troubleshoot blindly, check the status of the connection on the secondary router (via LAN cable) and on the primary router, to judge whether is the main link which goes down often, or the link between your repeater and the clients. _________________ If you want support, please read first the announcements and forum rules.
