Latency issue after firmware update R7900P
Hi, I did the rececent firmware update to V1.4.2.84_1.3.42 and ever since we've been having trouble finding and loading websites. We are on Spectrum cable modem but our neighbors are not having this issue so I don't think it's on Spectrums end. I also switched DNS from Spectrum to Google servers to see if that fixed anything and it didn't so I don't think it's a DNS issue.
I'm wondering if anyone else has had this issue and if there is a solution other than buying a new router? It worked great before the firmware update.
Thanks

I've seen several issues across multiple product lines on the latest firmware versions.
Some have been fixed by enabling ipv6
Others have needed to downgrade a version. I'd try the IPv6 first and then the downgrade.
Is that a Router setting or on my computer?
