Dec 14, 2021Done. Hopefully this resolves the issue. If not, do you think downgrading the firmware will resolve this? I only started getting this issue when I began using beta firmware. Also, when do you think netgear will have this issue resolved?

Had it happen again. Anything else I can try? Every device has a reserved IP than falls outside of DHCP pool

Looks like every 24 hours.
I had my router disconnect again earlier so I checked the logs and noticed this message around the time of the disconnect:
[DoS Attack: SYN/ACK Scan] from source: 168.119.232.76, port 443, Wednesday, December 15, 2021 23:48:38
Is this just a scan or what? When my router reconnected to the internet it shows this:
[DumaOS] DHCP lease change., Wednesday, December 15, 2021 23:50:31
Hopefully this helps you figure out whats going on, thanks.
