Nighthawk AC1900 C7000 packet drops

Nighthawk AC1900 C7000 randomly drops packets, and some applications that don't handle this packet drops well (in my case Stadia Controller for gaming and Google Meet for Video Calling), disconnect.

 

Hardware version: C7000v2

Firmware version: V1.03.01

    Are you getting dropped packets over wifi or hardwired in? 

    If over wifi, are you connected to the 2.4ghz or 5ghz?

    If its the 2.4ghz, move the devices to the 5ghz band. 2.4ghz is more sensitive to interference
