Solution to intermittent loading of websites Nighthawk R8300

Our experience with the home network recently has been that websites would intermittently not load, and we would get "DNS server not found" or "DNS Server not responding" error, and "duplicate IP address" errors on the network.  This occured on multiple computers using Windows 10 and Google Chrome browsers.  Trying to log on to password sites was even more difficult.  After weeks of diagnosis, the cause of these issues is determined to be the latest firmware version V1.0.2.154.  After reverting to previous firmware version  V1.0.2.144 on the R8300 Nighthawk router, all three issues have disappeared.  I thank the members that suggested to try the previous firmware.

Were you getting log entries posed at 154?

 

This revision seems to be buggy and needs to be pulled IMO.
