Not a biggie, just a curiosity. I leave a web page open to router status ( http://192.168.0.1/Status_Router.asp ) and the time is refreshing and everything looks good. Runs like that for days. Then I notice the web page has stopped updating and the time is stale. Meanwhile, I have a telnet window open to the router, running the "top" command. The telnet session was never interrupted, and "top" is running normally, with nothing unusual in the process list. Click on the browser page refresh button and the status page comes back alive. For a few days.
Have you tried different browser maybe? _________________ R6400v2 (boardID:30) - Kong 36480 running since 03/09/18 - (AP - DNSMasq - AdBlocking - QoS) R7800 - BS 31924 running since 05/26/17 - (AP - OpenVPN Client - DNSMasq - AdBlocking - QoS) R7000 - BS 30771 running since 12/16/16 - (AP - NAS - FTP - SMB - OpenVPN Server - Transmission - DDNS - DNSMasq - AdBlocking - QoS) R6250 - BS 29193 running since 03/20/16 - (AP - NAS - FTP - SMB - DNSMasq - AdBlocking)
One question. Yesterday I noticed my internet going down intermittently: looked like a WAN issue and not local. Cable modem showed constant connection. SysLog shows nothing. I looked at the incoming requests under security and it looked like someone might have been trying to "attack" my IP so I changed it by using a different Mac Address clone and rebooting the cable modem to get a new IP and it seems to have cleared up.
But since the intermittent disconnects from WAN were just a few seconds each and I'm not always sitting here to notice them, can someone recommend a program that monitors your internet connection constantly in order to detect dropouts of a few seconds and report them? I'd like to run something like that for a few hours to see if I have a constant internet connection or if it drops for a few seconds every hour or so.

Just wanted to mention that this and the previous build are the first since many that don't have random wifi disconnects for me anymore. So, whatever changed it's good
nslookup still ignores the specified nameserver though...
2.4ghz wifi still always uses 40Mhz channel width when channel set to auto (regardless of channel width setting)

I'm now getting random disconnects on the two 5Ghz channels. I'll sit down at my PC and be told there is not internet. Unable to ping the router. Forcing Windows to switch to the other 5Ghz channel (SSIDs are KTwo5 and KTwo5b) rectifies the problem, regardless of which channel has lost connectivity.
Having issues too, all of sudden just disconnects wifi 2.4 and 5ghz, TV,mobiles,PC's
have about 1000 errors on each wifi channel during 2 days up time..
Clear nvram and power cycle. If that doesn't help. Reflash _________________ Netgear R7000 on Build 55109

Woke up this morning and no internet. It was working when I went to bed. This did not happen with 31920 or 31870, so I thought it was fixed from when it was happening in earlier versions. Looks like that bug is back. When I sent to the router, the power light was red, all others white with some flashing. The fix is to reboot the router. I loaded this version earlier this week from the GUI with a reset before and after. It had been running well for at least 5 days before this happened. Let me know if you need any further information.

Been on this version for over a week, and much more stable than the other builds I tried (Shibby, etc.)!
I am having some funky behavior with USB though. The culprit is a crappy dual bay usb3 HD dock I'm using, that seems to be dropping its connection (hdparm extends but still eventually drops). The problem is that with automount on, when it comes back online, the drivers assign additional /dev and /mnt points, so the longer it's up the more /dev points I end up with.
I've turned automount off, and I'm trying to write my own mounting script, but I seem to be missing some last command that makes the scsi driver enumerate/add the /dev mount points. I created a post on here, but just wanted to add a note here since it's specific to this build.

I also having same issue and to quote "clear nvram and if this does not work refresh" does not work either. I have 4 Netgear R6300v2 routers and keep working unit in play for a bit and then update each periodically to latest. I have updated 2 and left the others at std netgear firmware. Been running for approx 2 weeks and constant Netgear Facial going on and off, connections drop but after a short time all is back. Very annoying - I have nothing special running on it just the standard stuff and as mentioned nvram erase does not work so complete refresh and tried as is with again nothing special with the same results. Hope next build corrects this issue. If memory serves me this also happened with a previous build 315xxx series i believe. Could be another.

Here's a curious observation. I just determined that my internet went out at exactly midnight on the 29th. It was fine up until 12:00, then nothing until I rebooted the router at about 6:30. I know this because my security cameras stopped recording to the NAS at exactly that time where they had been fine for the previous 30 days.

So far 17 days 9 hours on this firmware without any noticeable issues. Only customization is USB core is on (to power USB fan) and a port forward. Using 2.4ghz and 5ghz successfully...

I upgraded from 31830M. No factory reset, didn't clear NVRAM. I was having an issue with latency-spikes during gaming on 31830, so I (hesitantly) upgraded to this build in hopes that the issue (which I cannot isolate) would go away. It didn't go away. The issue is definitely in the router/firmware because when I plug the PC directly into the modem there are no lag spikes to speak of.
Everything else works fine:
DNSMasq w/ DNSCrypt, DDNS, 2.4/5 both working, SSHd, QoS
Reset: No reset
Errors: Nothing to report. Running Syslog to a remote client and showed nothing out of the ordinary

Status: Just installed, yet seems to be a good build. See setup(s) below
Reset: Nah, flashed via ddup --flash-latest
Errors: None thus far, yet as I said, I just flashed this build.
My gateway has USB and auto-mount enabled, which kills dnsmasq and OpenVPN (server) and restarts them with settings on my USB so the info stays between restarts. I have QoS going fine and port forwards via iptables (this is where I was having problems the last few builds. If QoS was enabled, it didn't port forward. Seems fine in this build with a small script in the firewall setting). OpenVPN server working fine, USB working fine, all seems well. Good work, devs!
My second R7000 is just a basic AC-only access point. _________________ Deployed Routers:
