My setup:

Router Model: TPLINK TL-WDR4300 v1
Firmware Version: DD-WRT v24-sp2 (12/15/14) std - build 25648

I have a ISP (Unitymedia)-issued cable modem+router (Technicolor TC7200U) that is in "router" mode. I set it a static IP address 192.168.1.1

The DDWRT router is connected to it with connection type = Disabled. I use it as wireless access point, DHCP server, NAS, whatnot. I set it a static IP address 192.168.1.3 + "Assign WAN port to Switch". I set the gateway address to 192.168.1.1 (the cable modem).

Everything works perfectly EXCEPT from time to time (every few hours) clients connected to DDWRT lose Internet connection. They can still access LAN addresses. The weirdest thing is that if I open the page of the cable modem (go to http://192.168.1.1) the Internet connectivity magically recovers for this client. I don't have sufficient statistics but it looks like different clients disconnect at different moments. Where should I dig?

Many thanks!

cable modem put in your wan port on your router.

Since you have the same ip range change the routers ip to 192.168.100.1 for example so it doesnt have ip conflicts.
