storm1985, thank you for your input. However why would it "should" work? Ping runs over icmp protocol which runs over udp. HTTP, SMB run over TCP/IP. For example, I'm trying to RDP to another PC. And the first phase is successful - e.g. it prompts me for the credentials. However after credentials are entered the connection fails within some seconds with an "internal error has occurred". But accessing the services on the router (e.g. router gui) works just fine. Ergo it does seem like a firmware issue to me.
