So I am having the same issue with the drop of internet and the only way to get it to come back up is to turn off the router for a few and turn it back on then it works fine as long as anything hardwired is online. If anything goes on standby for more then 4- 5 hours I wil lose connectivity. I did the hot fix to no avail. I'm hoping there is a update soon as this is becoming very annoying.
