Router crashing on Rainbow Six Siege

Hi everyone,

 

I have had my router for the last two years with no issues, but suddenly I get regular hard router crashes (1 - 2 per session) when playing Rainbow Six on my PS5 via ethernet. The router fully reboots so even getting logs is hard (nothing appears).

 

I have port forwarded, and I have a lot of [DoS Attack: ACK Scan] in my logs, but when I look at the IPs they don't seem problematic (and I have heard they often are overreported by the software anyway). 

 

This is on latest firmware, does anyone have any ideas?

    Try to reinstall the firmware, do a factory reset, and then reinstall without using a backup. If the firmware or settings are corrupt it should overwrite it.
