Wi-Fi keeps dropping connection on large file downloads. Wired is OK.
Just about everytime that I try to download a large file via Wi-fi, the connection will drop. I have to connect via wired LAN for it to reliably download.
I updated the firmware to V1.0.4.106_10.0.80 and rebooted but this did not solve the problem
The modem is a realtively new Arris SB8200.
Would appreciate any help.

Re: Wi-Fi keeps dropping connection on large file downloads. Wired is OK.
Does this happen on all wifi devices or does it happen on just 1 specific device when it's trying to download?
