    What firmware version do you have on the MR60?

    A number is more useful than "the latest". There may be newer versions, or "hot fixes", that do not show up if you check for new firmware in the browser interface.

    If there is one it might also help if you told people the make and model number of the modem/gateway/ONT that sits between this router and the Internet. Is it, by any chance, also a router, with a set of LAN ports on the back?

    I ask because a lot of people turn up here trying to put a router behind a modem that is also a router. That can complicate troubleshooting.

      There’s nothing before the MR60. Been using it this way for almost 2 years and haven’t had this issue. Firmware version is v1.1.7.134
