I've been running the latest firmware version (88) that released last week and, after several days, I've yet to run into the DNS Probe issues I had with 84. The IPv6 change didn't really work for me when I tried, so I had no choice but to revert to a previous working version, so I'm glad this latest version seems to be working.
Had the same problem on this firmware. 1st 5Ghz channel kept dropping. Updated to the latest Version 1.4.3.88 and the problem vanished. Both 5Ghz channels are solid, and have been overnight.
OK, just put my R79860P with v.88 loaded and factory reset and setup from scratch online connected to a CAX80 in modem mode. Traffic Meter enabled. Armor, Circle and QoS disabled.
Wired speeds are good:
Also onboard Speed Test app seems to be fixed working now:
Will also monitor for DNS issues. I'm using default ISP detected DNS addresses.
Everything was good for about 36 hours and then I started having connectivity drops. My one software I use for work keeps reporting no internet connection. I have to change to a different connection or repair. It's bizarre. I loaded the new .88 firmware and did a full factory reset and started fresh. Still having issues.
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Are you wired or wireless connected when you see this?

It's a Spectrum Technicolor Model E31T2V1
I have had to go back to my DGND4000 as it has zero issues with it and runs perfectly stable
I have tried both wired and wireless and have the same issues
