You should review this and maybe revert back to this recommended version of FW:

Since I've flashed Tomato a few weeks ago I've forgotten that I have a router- it's working perfectly getting dust because i do not touch it at all :-)...
Parental control works perfectly, 0 drops, strong signal - save your time and do a similar thing!
Guys, be lucky you have a R7000 and not cheap crap, low budget brand. The hardware is somewhat outdated but still does the the job done. Feel sorry for NG but I'm sure they work on it. On the other hand it drove me to XWRT-Vortex for about 8 months ago. Never had any issues after switching, rock solid and nice features. Oh yea, you can turn off the unsecure WPS function as well.
Tomato by Shibby flashed 15 days ago- rock solid, huge wifi range, 0 drops, the same speed on cable and wifi and finally a proper Internet access restriction for different devices to protect kids - don't need anything else....
Finally familly is happy using a nvidia shield (Kodi), ipad, iphones, PCs, Bluesound internet radios and few Xiaomi devices- every of them works flawlessly .....
