NightHawk Browser Delay
Have a Nighthawk X6 AC3200 Tri-Band Wifi Router. My main pc is hardwired into it. Nearly every webpage I visit the first time in the session has a 3 to 5 second screen delay displaying the "Hmm can't reach this page" screen, then proceeds on. Often, it only partially loads the webpage and I have to hit refresh to load it properly.
It does not occur on my wifi connected laptop. It does not occur if I unplug from the NightHark and plug my pc into the ATT Cable Modem that the NightHawk is plugged into. (Yes, I could just plug it there...but it's a different network) Which to me shows its a NightHawk setting, not a PC setting.
I have read multiple community posts, other sites....seems many have a similar, if not the same issue...but no solutions that work for me. I've uploaded the latest firmware, rebooted everything, turned of QoS. Frustrated over this thing...any meaningful help would be greatly appreciated...GB

some were fixed with simply enabling IPv6.
Others actually needed to downgrade the firmware a version or 2.
I'd try the enabling ipv6 first.
