AC1750 dropping connection on regular basis, once every few minutes and lasting about 5 seconds.
Hi all,
I noticed since a power outtage that my Archer C7 is acting weird. Every few minutes my connection seems to drop for a few seconds. When I do a ping to my router (AC7) I notice that the pings are not responding, on multiple devices at the same time.
I think i found a good clue to what is the issue at the moment: during a connection loss there is a lot of DHCP traffic in the device log:

This is just a small portion of the logs during a short outtage. It seems to me like devices ending with mac adress 1C and F8 are having trouble getting an IP adress assigned. All other devices seem to work really well.
Has anyone experienced this issue before or do you know what things i can try?
Thank you a lot,
Someone in need of some network help :(
