Good afternoon. I have been struggling with a network issue for weeks now and I am hoping someone would be kind enough to help me out. I have a decent background with pc's but the network portion is still a mystery to me. And I apologize up front if I do not use all the correct terminology.
So, anyway, I have a new isp who has provided me with a wireless (lte) connection - the tower is line of sight. The antenna installed on my roof appears to be receiving a consistent signal (according to my isp) and all indications to me show that to be true. When I connect to the poe using an ethernet cable directly to my pc, it seems to have a good consistent signal.
My isp has provided me with a Zyxel router which is connected to the poe via the wan port. This connection seems to work ok as well.
Here's the problem. I have a Google Mesh wifi system (newly purchased) connected to one of the lan ports on their router and I set it up with its own ssid. I am able to connect to it but there are many disconnects. I have also connected the Google Mesh wifi router directly to the poe connector and it has trouble staying connected there too. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can keep the connection from dropping?
My "tech guy" has been here several times and he has run out of ideas.
As a side note, once this is resolved, I hope to add an outside connection using a gateway hub and access point. I only mention that in case this would conflict with any offered solutions. But if I need help on this connection, I will create a new post.
I look forward to hearing any suggestions that may help to resolve this issue. Thank you in advance.
