A couple things.
1. The gateway is important as combo devices can cause a double nat. Some routers handle it better than others. So what actual gateway model is it?
2. the firmware you're on is not the latest or even the agreed upon most stable.
The latest is 1.0.11.110. and the agreed upon stable version for the r7000 is 1.0.9.42
if you change firmware, make sure to do it over a hardwired connection, factory reset after the change and do a clean install. By clean i mean don't use a backup configuration.
