Hey everyone, I'm experiencing some odd behavior on our home network. On the nighthawk R8000P, computers A and B are connected. When A is active and B is off, everything functions normally—switching back works too. The opposite happens: when B powers up, A's connection drops briefly, then both become online with no logs of interrupts. This happens whether both are on or off. It seems worse during gaming because a stable connection is crucial. Streaming isn't affected as much since buffering occurs only after brief drops. I'm not sure if wireless is impacted. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Check for a firmware update on your router. Reset it to factory settings. Need help reaching Netgear support?
