dpm416 Thank you for your post.
I am experiencing the same issue since the firmware update. It's definitely a DNS issue and random when it decides to occur. Some clients may experience it and others not.
To confirm it was DNS related I went to one of the clients that was having issues and manually put in a public DNS server and everything started working. When set back to auto it broke again.
I am currently setup to get DNS automatically from ISP. I chose to check the "Use these DNS Servers" box and manually entered my ISP's servers. I also manually set them in the Lan Setup and rebooted.
After the firmware update I could expect this issue to arise almost daily, after manually setting the DNS it's been 3 days now with no issue.
Obviously not ideal to have to do this.
