    Hi FURRYe38:

     

    So far so good (very short timeframe).  Also, changed the NTP server from Netgear's to time.nist.gov.  If I continue to have connectivity issues, I'll do the factory reset and re-setup from scratch.  Thanks for your help.

Also check your NTP settings. Seeing more posts regarding this since the time change this passed weekend. Try changing from NG server to time.nist.gov or something else and test. 

Let us know how the reset goes. Someome posted the reset helped them.

Same exact issue after upgrading. At first it was just slow speed on my phone but then after that issue basically all devices in my home keep reporting no internet or internet unavailable. The only thing that seemed to alleviate the issue was putting my devices on static IP's with the gateway as DNS1 and a setting up google as DNS2. This fixed the issue but this never happened before the upgrade.

 

I'm going to reset it today and try again.
