Thank you dear, I will upload it and test it thoroughly then will provide you all some feedback. by the way, I have recently updated the router as it said update available. I updated it and its performing good than before but the wired connection is still having trouble. let's see this firmware will work or not. Thanks for your continuous support guys.

It was longer between drops but I am still experiencing drops after the hot fix.
