Hello ezone

I have the same issue. Will run fine for a few hours than suddenly I get a quarter of the speed when using the WIFI. Wired connections are not affected. Can you please address this, is there any log or stats that would help you? It's a serious issue. Currently a router costing half of the price will perform way better.
Thanks,
Firmware: V1.3.1.44_10.1.23
I installed the update that showed up last week, V1.0.9.60_10.2.60 and like the prior release that came out the week or so before my WiFi is working fine, along with the VPN function on my IOS devices. I know that doesn't help you just passing it along that for me at least the last two releases fixed my WiFi and VPN issues.
- I know .60 is being made out to be the devil on some other threads, but I too am seeing great wifi speeds with this update. In fact, my 2 year old Nighthawk never achieved the max throughput of my ISP until this release. Using Comcast xfinity 250MPS plan, and since updating to 0.60, I am getting 250-290 in about 3/4s of my house on 5Ghz. Previously, best I ever got was around 120, usually 70ish.
