I have trouble, for several months now, but I never cared asking anyone why this keeps happening. Basically if I try to reach my Server in my LAN-Network, I need to ping it several times in a row, until it "engages" (Like an old car)... The connection keeps stable while I am pinging, but if I stop, the connection will get slower and starts dropping (Timeout and such stuff).
Here what my command prompt looks like (It's not in english, but I think the command below is familiar to everyone here):
C:\Users\Username>ping 192.168.8.50 -t

[... Keeps stable connection, until I stop pinging]
I need to do this everytime I want to work with my server. I keep this window in the background pinging, but that's somewhat annoying and I can't explain myself why this is happening... I tried with several different routers (TP-Link [Stock, OpenWrt, DD-Wrt], D-Link, ...). All those present the exact same behaviour.
My LAN network looks like this:
I also tried to disable the Firewall of the router entirely and nothing changed. I can't be the only one who has this problem...
I meant directly connecting the server to a LAN port of "ROUTER" -- this would give it an IP in the 192.168.17.x range assuming your netmask is 255.255.255.0
@allquicatic That should work, but since both routers are far away, that's not possible... The cables don't reach.
