Feedback for R7000 New firmware 1.0.9.18

    Just throwing this out because my router has mysteriously beome stable (>1 week)

    I have had the same problems with 2.4 Ghz and 5 Ghz dropping.off - inluding google Homes (5 Ghz), Logitech Harmony(2.4) , Samsung phones(5 and 2.4), Yealink light bulbs(2.4) and ,,, Many of these devices are with 10 feet of the R7000. I went through the upgrades from .14 to .18 to .20 without any significant differences over the past 2 months. I tried many of the parameter changes (QoS, guest network, disabling 5 Ghz ...) but they didn't seem to help much - still resetting the router (from GUI, power plug, Wifi button) to get devices back online (my wife just turns the R7000 off and back on). Have never lost a wired connection, but an wired android box has been acting strange (not sure if it's related)

    One thing that did help a bit was schedulling the WiFi off for 30 minute every night. It just made the problem happen less often though.

    Here are my questions: For the past week I have been stable without any further changes. The only change has been the ambient temperature in the room has dropped about 6-8 F due to the cold snap we've been getting in Toronto. Has anyone noticed any corelation to the temperature? Did the firmware upgrade which causes the problem  upgrade the firmware of the WiFi chipset (might explain why certain downgrade paths do not fix the problem)? Could the possible WiFi chipset firmware upgrade have pushed up the thermals?
