So I got a tp-link TD-8817 adsl2+ modem at times the connection is intermittent. Right out of the box it does´t connect so to set it up following the quick connection wizard:
- Pick the time zone
- Choose dynamic ip (thats how my ISP works)
- Set VPI to 0 and VCI to 33 and then set the Connection Type: to bridged IP LLC
Lately when I get bad connectivity I ping the modem and it shows the following pattern over and over.

What I have tried so far.
- Turning on and off
- Factory reset
- Changing adsl modes to auto, G.DMT and G.Lite
- Done the test both connected directly and trough the wifi router
- Changed the cables and microfilter
- Connected it directly to the main phone outlet with no microfilter.
- Doing ipconfig /renew /release /flushdns
- Made sure my pc was the only device on the network and no background downloads were happening like torrents
- Test with both a pc with win10 and a laptop with linux
Also in the past it gave me problems where the ping stayed around 2000ms+ for long times even after reboots.
Any inputs on how can I fix this or any particular problem I showed? Thx in advance!
If the problem happens while pinging the router directly, then it probably isn't WAN-side (but it may be that the device is busy trying to renegotiate). Try to see if you can set up the router to not attempt to connect to wan, and then disconnect the WAN side completely and then see if you can reproduce the ping response issue without any WAN connection. This way you can rule out the DSL entirely as a point of failure. – Yorik – 2017-12-05T16:58:21.820
I'm not sure i follow you, did you meant WLAN? because I understand the WAN is the wide area network – MrDuro – 2017-12-05T18:46:33.837
I meant WAN. The first principle in troubleshooting is to eliminate possible causes. If you eliminate the WAN as a feature entirely, and the problem goes away, then you now know that the DSL or an interaction with the DSL is the problem. If I read it correctly, your ping spikes and timeouts happen when pinging the device directly, so if the problem is the device (the DSL is fine) then until you can decouple the DSL from the setup, then pinging outside the LAN will not yield useful information. – Yorik – 2017-12-05T20:32:22.993
And "yes" the next step would be to disable the wireless radio. Just don't do it all at once: you either want to disable everything until you stop seeing the issue and turn them on one at a time until it starts, or turn off one thing at a time until it stops happening. Otherwise you won't know. – Yorik – 2017-12-05T20:33:29.823
