Specifically, I would lose connectivity after large downloads, which were mostly game updates.. Nothing recommended by Netgear or the community would solve this problem. After putting up with the issue for a couple months, i decided to try downloading large files on my wife's computer, and to my surprise, no issues. Luckily, our computers are practically identical, with the exception of the built-in ethernet. Her M/B has an Intel 1Gbps, while mine has both a 1Gbps and 2.5Gbps. I was using the 2.5Gbps LAN, so after i switched to the 1Gbps, the issues stopped. It's been a month without issue, so i can confidently say, at least for me, the firmware introduced some compatibility issues with the 2.5Gbps LAN.
