I would try swapping firmware before calling it.
I'd try installing veresiohn 1.0.2.68 of the firmware. Factory reset it and do a clean install

Hello
I installed this morning version 68 again, and for so far everything is working well. The router did not drop the internet connection once.
If i have problems again, you will hear me :-)
Thanks a lot
Philip
