Need to Reboot RAX35 for intermittant wifi dropping after 2 weeks
Ever since we have been under Stay at Home, it seems like every 2-3 weeks I have to reboot my router as I will start to experience the wifi dropping on my 3 laptops in use at home. The wired computers/devices work fine, but not the 3 laptops. They will drop wifi every 30 minutes or so, even though 1 of them is 10 feet from the router. I have Verizon gigabit service so plenty of ISP bandwith. I did notice I am using about 14 GB of data a day through the router. Once I reboot it, is seems to be better for awhile. I hooked this router up in early January 2020 and never had to reboot until the end of March. Since then, 3 reboots. Anyone else having a similar issue? Seems like a memory not clearing bug in the router...
