R7000 LAN problem, seems to time out.

Hi, 

 

I think my R7000 is acting up.

Since a few days, it's like my lan connection (computer to computer) is timing out.

I tried watch some videos, and they stop for 30 seconds or longer and continue (if the program hasn't closed), same goes for music files or even file transfer.

Internet keeps working on both machines during those moments.

Just to be sure, I tried the same on another computer and connected an usb drive to the router and tested it via readyshare... same problem.

 

I have tried a full reset, other cables, other ports, but the problem stays...

 

I hope someone has an idea

oh, i have firmware V1.0.4.30_1.1.67

    I believe I am having these issues too. I have my Nighthawk set up as a WAP with a Google OnHub as my DHCP router. They are wired together by ethernet, and a couple of switches. Every day or so the internet seems to stop working when I am connected to my Nighthawk WAP. I have to power cycle it to get the internet to work again.

     

    I'm on firmware - V1.0.4.30_1.1.67

     

    Any advice?

     

    Thanks,
