R7000 LAN problem, seems to time out.

[Angelique_]

Hi, 

I think my R7000 is acting up.

Since a few days, it's like my lan connection (computer to computer) is timing out.

I tried watch some videos, and they stop for 30 seconds or longer and continue (if the program hasn't closed), same goes for music files or even file transfer.

Internet keeps working on both machines during those moments.

Just to be sure, I tried the same on another computer and connected an usb drive to the router and tested it via readyshare... same problem.

I have tried a full reset, other cables, other ports, but the problem stays...

I hope someone has an idea

oh, i have firmware V1.0.4.30_1.1.67

Sorry for the late reply, but that didn't work either.

I called the store, will bring it back tomorrow.

Thanks for the help tho 🙂

How about you try the beta firmware, reset and reconfigure?

I believe I am having these issues too. I have my Nighthawk set up as a WAP with a Google OnHub as my DHCP router. They are wired together by ethernet, and a couple of switches. Every day or so the internet seems to stop working when I am connected to my Nighthawk WAP. I have to power cycle it to get the internet to work again.

I'm on firmware - V1.0.4.30_1.1.67

Any advice?

Thanks,

@awatson88 Try the beta. Search 1.0.5.62 beta firmware then reset the router and reconfigure.

@doraemon How stable is the beta? Any idea when it will become GA?

Thanks,

[doraemon]

They do not have any ETA.

Some users on here reported that it's stable.

@doraemon just installed the V1.0.5.64_1.1.88 firmware. Now it stops saying 'No Internet Connection' but instead things won't load half the time.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks,

Andrew

Did you reset after loading the new firmware?
