modem/router keeps freezing after watching youtube one mobile

[MariusPure]

Well hello guys,
So after I watch youtube on an android device, my router/modem just freezes, and when I restart it it fixes and works again, and it keeps happening every 2hrs or so, it was happening before, but it stopped, btw then I downgrade the yt app version to a stock version which was installed on the phone, internet doesnt die.

Are you sure that router/modem "freezes"? Meaning all other devices no longer can access the internet.

Could be a bug in the yt app version you are using or maybe some power saver related function in that app.

Go some other places and use the android device on other networks.

See if the problem follows the android and/or affects other networks.

Yes, im sure. Internet dies for all devices, and now I started to use a VPN , thats seems to be a problem too ;/ maybe I just need to buy a new one ? the one im currently using is a 7year old one

"Buy a new one" meaning your modem/router and not the android device - correct?

No internet for all devices and all apps - not just when YouTube app is used? And the android device does works at other locations/networks with no problems?

What make and model modem/router do you have? Do you know if there was a recent firmware update?

Do you have administrative access rights? You might be able to check the modem/router's logs if it supports some logging functions and if logging is enabled.

Internet dies when eather Im connected with vpn, or someones watching youtube ONLY, yes only on my home ruoter/modem.
I've DRK A125G
Yes, I can log in into it: heres the log http://pastebin.com/yAe7Syjt

Not sure about the full meaning of all those log entries per se to be honest. However, I will google a couple of the more interesting lines to see what turns up.

When convenient, stop using VPN and YouTube for a while. Clear the router's logs. Wait at least a couple of hours.

Then use the internet as normal but no VPN or YouTube use.

See what the logs report then - hopefully little or nothing.

Then bring back YouTube only and watch the logs.

Repeat but reinstate the VPN only.

The objective is twofold: 1) Gain some understanding with respect to the log entries, and 2) See if the problem is with either YouTube or VPN.

Responding now as I expect to be offline for a couple of days. Did not want to leave you "sitting about".
