Suggests something else is amiss.
Note that shadowsports appears to be running older firmware on an R7000. Might be worth trying that.

Thanks for your help. As faras I know I have downloaded the latest verision of the firmware. Without any other option left that would be my last resort to do a factory reset. I am planning to do that by tomorrow.
