So what NG router are you referring too?
What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update?

Have you powered OFF the ISP modem and Router for 1 minute or longer then power back ON the modem then router?
Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6 is recommended.
