R6700 drops internet when downloading

Hello,
Just recentlly got the R6700v2 Router (Firmware VersionV1.1.0.38_1.0.1) and I am having an issue i could not find in the forums.
Everything works fine in terms of internet when I just play video games online, stream youtube/netflix/kodi. But as soon as I open a Usenet download or a Torrent (dont judge) the router drops the internet connection almost immediately. The internet light on the router turns orange and only if i restart it will it come back online. It will stay online for a few minutes before dropping again.
This goes for both wifi and being hardwired into the router. When I am hardwired into the modem it works just fine. I already did a factory reset and downgrade to V1.1.0.24. The log mentions something about a Ddos but going through the forums i was able to turn that off. It is still showing in the logs though.
