I am having similar issues and I am just a regular housewife so no technical background here. All I know is I did a manual upgrade 2 days ago and nothing runs right. Intermittent internet issues all day long. My dashboard for the router now suddenly says I am in Access Point mode and I changed nothing! It also says there are 11 attached devices, which should be correct, but when I go to look at the devices attached it only shows one. Driving me crazy!

It might help if you told us what the modem is, if there is one, in front of the router. That should have been one of the first questions.
