This site can't be reached with Nighthawk R6700v3
Firmware versions 1.0.04.118 and 1.0.04.120 result in a delay resolving internet addresses or in some cases the message "This site can't be reached". When the message appears the internet page does resolve after reloading/refreshing 1 to 3 times. This also prevents my automatic updates of Quicken and iDrive backup.
To resolve htis issue, I have had to load firmware version 1.04.106.
This happens with 2 different computers (desktop and laptop) connected to the router via ethernet. Both run winwows 10. It happens with the internet security firewall disabled.
It doesn't happen when the desktop computer is connected directly to the cable modem. It doesn't happen (ot isn't noticeable) to devices connected via wifi.
I attached a screen image of the message as well as a Windows Network Diagnostic results.

we've seen this issue across multiple product lines.
Some were able to use IPv6 successfully. others had to take your tact and downgrade.
thanks for reporting it as the more people who post, the more likely the moderators/engineers get involved
Same issue after firmware update. I rolled back to 106 and it works fine.
