I have been on v2.5.1.8 for over a month, so it did not start with that.
It's not an issue with the Router-Satellite connection, it's all devices losing WiFi suddenly and only a reboot fixes it. This started happening today. Meanwhile, all the wired connections work fine while the wifi is offline.
Is v2.3.5.30 the last stable version for this router and does Circle work with it?
Thanks

Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last update? You might try this first. Don't enable Circle just yet. See if anything changes. If it's better, then enable Circle. Others have need bad behavior with Circle.
Please give feedback to the other questions as well.

Yes, the factory reset and setup was done after I first updated the firmware to v2.5.1.8. I haven't changed anything since then and everything was working fine.
