I have checked that time that i have the latest version which is Router Firmware Version V1.0.15.146.
when i connect Seagate 8TB HDD to router's usb3, occassionally router will frequently disconnect itself from internet, that is the indicator turns to orange from white color, and i just simply doesn't have internet, need to hard restart router again to get my internet back again, but after about half hour, it losts internet again. However, once i dont connect HDD to the router, everything fine, no disconnection at all.
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6 is recommended.
