Starting last week, my router started blocking all steam server access for downloads and online play. A gaming router.. blocking gaming. I have had this router with no issues for three years.
After factory reset, I can use Steam for about an hour, then nothing. All devices and web browsing work normally.
Log files show tons of false positive DOS attacks.
I have tried:
- Disabling QOS
- Factory reset
- Tried each of the versions of firmware
- Disabling port scan
- Turned my pc firewall on/off
- Same on 2.4 and 5 ghz networks
Any help would be appreciated. I am about to get rid of this thing.
