Looses connection

Hi, I have the EX6200 working in FastLane mode where it connects via 5Ghz to my router (AirPort Extreme last generation) and then using wires I connect some other stuff to it. Well, all this works...

I am having the same issues. My primary router is the R7000 (Nighthawk AC1900). I have the Extender EX6200 set up with the 5GHz Fast Lane. The Wifi from the EX6200 seems to work fine. However, the main purpose for the EX6200 is so I can directly plug in all my devices from my entertainment center (TV, TiVo, BlueRay, XBOX, etc). Every few days, the EX6200 drops the wired connections. A reboot seems to fix it, temporarily. Clearly this is a pain in the rear when everytime I want to stream NetFlix (or whatever) that I need to reboot the extender.

I have the latest Firmware available. Anyone found a fix to this yet?
