You're on a bit older of firmware and not a great version at that.
You can try installing the latest version 1.0.11.116
Or the agreed upon stable version for the R7000 is 1.0.9.42
any firmware changes with the r7000 I'd recommend doing over a hardwired connection. Then after updating/downgrading, i'd recommend a factory reset and clean install. By clean i mean just not installing from a backup configuration.
