AC 1200 Smart Wifi Router, Images not loading

Okay so as I said I have that router and I updated to the new firmware (V1.1.0.106_1.0.1) and now images are not loading on Instagram, Facebook etc...

 

ive check on both my iPad, iPhone and computer and it's the same problem for all, not just those two apps as well, even sites online are not loading images.

 

it's definitely the Router because the modemn loads them fine...I factor reset the router twice and still no help, so it's definitely the new firmware, is what I think. Is there a way to restore the previous firmware or a way to just fix this problem

    What modem do you have? 

    What router do you have? AC1200 is a speed, not a model. 

    did you every try downgrading the firmware? maybe the firmware introduced a bug in your setup

        to downgrade you simply download the older firmware, unzip it, and then follow the manual firmware update process from the manual. you just use the firmware you downloaded
