Random short drops on Nighthawk R6020
Hi my router will just suddenly have these short bad periods lasting up to like 30 seconds at most. I assume this is somewhat common and have seen several other posts about it but the solutions I saw...
What are these "short bad periods"?
What actually happens? (in detail since we aren't there to see/experience it)
What firmware version are you on?
What modem/gateway is it connected to?
How often is it happening?
So I often have command prompt running a google ping to catch when this happens. It's pretty random but usually at least once an hour, sometimes 3. Just updated to FW 1.0.0.52 recently hoping it would be fixed but nope. Modem is an Arris TM1602A from Spectrum.
