    Hi Brian783,

     

    Please try re-flashing the firmware of the router then do a factory reset and check if the issue persists.

Hi Brian783,

 

1. What is the firmware version on the router?

2. Does the issue persist on both bands (2.4GHz and 5GHz)?

3. Does the issue persist on all your wireless devices?

4. What is the speed that you're getting when wired to the router?

 

Regards,
