You can always try disabling the logging features and see if that's whats causing it.
Or upgrade routers as that's a pretty base model gigabit router.

Thanks for the response. Greatly appreciate your input.
On one hand, I have no issues with this router 99.9% percent of time. It's just this one band I work with and this one guy's tablet that, for whatever reason, just kills my router.
On the other hand, yeah, it might be time to upgrade.

Try enabling the guest network and seeing if it causes issues on the guest network. It might work fine on there.
