I have been having some issues with my Buffalo WZR-HP-AG300H with Firmware: DD-WRT v24-sp2 (03/19/12) std.
After some testing it seems the issues I am facing are strictly related to the NoCatSplash Captive Portal.
What would happen is, about 36-48 hours the router will cease internet to new users, but allow internet to current users to continue who have already connected.
From my testing, this is what I know when this occurs:
1) Other people can still browse the internet and are unaffected (if they were logged in before the issue started)
2) If you just log into the wifi, you get a valid DHCP but any web requests don't redirect you to the no cat splash page.
3) You CAN browse any sites in the white list during this moment.. So the connected computer does have internet only to the whitelisted sites in the NoCatSplash settings. Any other site you try to visit just fails to a unable try again white screen as normally nocatsplash would redirect you to the splash page to browse them but it just doesn't.
I go to the Administration, Management and hit Reboot Router and everything starts working again and new users and old users are able to reconnect and be redirected to the NoCat Splash page.
This leads me to believe it is NoCatSplash Related.
Thanks for ANY help you can give, I greatly appreciate it.
If you need any other information or have any other questions please ask. Moderators if this is in the wrong place can you please move or direct me to the correct place and I will repost there.
I am sorry, thought I mentioned that. I have it set to reboot every morning at 05:00 am. This is a software reboot however, not a power timer to power cycle reboot. Not sure if that would make a difference?
