R8000 Connection Issues

I upgraded the firmware for the router on 8/4/2023 to V1.0.4.46_10.1.84.  I began having problems initiating a connection in Outlook 2016 and TeamViewer.   After troubleshooting both applications, I noticed that the problem did not exist when I connected to networks at client sites.  The problem at my office was resolved by rolling back the firmware to V1.0.4.46_10.1.63.  

 

The symptom was a failure to initiate a connection reliably on the first try.  Multiple connection attempts were required to connect both Outlook and TeamViewer.  When using TeamViewer, the connection would drop in the middle of a session.  After the roll back, the problems vanished.
