- New 120 Rev appears to be out and fixes the issue, along with others. Running it 5 days now, so far so good.
I can confirm that R6700v3 with 1.0.4.118 firmware has serious issues.
(just for information, my computer is connected to router via ethernet)
Immediately after installing I got the following errors in Microsoft Edge with every other website I visited.
"Hmmm… can't reach this page

Went back to 1.0.4.106 and everything is perfect again.
(never had any problems with all the past firmware upgrades, and NEVER had to reset and setup up router again after a firmware upgrade/downgrade)
I just got done hooking up a replacement for the same router I had that i upgraded to the current firmware.
After i upgraded my PC kept on giving no internet errors, wasnt able to access voice chat on xbox app, and even Discord. Kept getting network issues on my gaming consoles.
It was also not showing my connected devices, would say i had 10 connected, but when i clicked on it would only show 1. or 2
I updated though the nighthawk app. Which might up caused the issue, but even after a factory reset it was still happening.
I blame the update on my Nighthawk not even launching on my phone too. The app keeps on crashing on the check network bar. Even after putting in the new router. Though that might be since my phone is kinda old Galaxy s7. Even if it worked before the update.
