Hi, thank you for your reply.
I'm not using wireless AP, I'm only using wired.
The firmware is V 1.0.2.62, but I know it's up to date.

That usually means that you have a router to router link running over wifi.
What is this "Gateway"?
It might also help if you told people what the modem is in front of this router. The model number could be useful. Is it, by any chance, also a router, with a set of LAN ports on the back?
