And does rebooting the router fix this?

Yes for another 1-3 days and then needs another reboot.  I'm going to try another factory reset but this time try turning on my devices in the priority order that I want so that I don't need to go to the priority page at all.  I want to see if the problem still happens if I never go to the priority page.

Ok, I'll forward this onto D-Link and see if there's any info...Keep us posted.

I can confirm this with my 5500 now as well...D-Link has been made aware. Please be patient.

Ok thank you for looking into this with me.  I appreciate it.  Also I haven't had time to go through the list of reported bugs but I noticed after a factory reset when you go through the initial automated setup and enter a password it doesn't correctly save the password.  For instance, each time I do the initial auto setup I enter the password, turn on the verification image option, and let it reboot, the image verification is turned on but the actual password is blank.  So I have to log on with a blank password, set up the password once more, and then it is correctly set.  Not a big deal but just wanted to make sure it's reported.

Ok, I haven't seen this however I dont use the CAPCHA at all, just at PW. I'll keep an eye out on this. Changes are in the wind.

I wanted to report that on the most recent factory reset I disabled the media server and never messed with the priority settings and I'm currently at 4 days uptime with the "My Network" and "Statistics" pages still functioning.  If this keeps up it looks like either the media server or manual priorities is the culprit.

On a side note I'm highly impressed with Streamboost.  As seen in the below screenshot, I had two Windows PCs downloading Diablo 3 with Peer-to-Peer enabled and was streaming a tv show on the Xbox One.  The router balanced the bandwidth flawlessly and tv stream was full hd the entire time no interrupts.  I was also playing World of Warcraft at the same time with a 25ms ping no lag and no packet loss.  WOW!

Awesome info...I believe i have MS enabled as well. Soon as I get home I'll disable it and see what happens. I'll forward this onto D-Link as well.

Thanks for sharing and keep us posted.

Enjoy.

Stopped working again   Doesn't seem to be related to anything.  I'll just wait for the next firmware release.

[FurryNutz]

Same here...nothing on those pages...Even after I updated to IE11. I got information back that D-Link is aware of it and is working on it.

Please be patient.

Any word on when we'll be getting new firmware?  The longer I wait the more I'm wishing I would have went with the Asus RT-AC68U   I seem to have a Skype problem as well with this router that I never experienced before.  Usually when I game with my cousin (who is in the other room) we have Skype going and now every few minutes we have to restart the Skype call because I can no longer hear him but he can still hear me.  Odd.

Just wanted to report that I rebooted the router to fix the usual Network Devices/Statistics bug and now Skype works as expected.  So it appears that the problem is more than just the router page but also effects the functionality of the router itself.

I have had the same problem too. Glad to hear dlink is working on it.

[FurryNutz]

New FW is on the horizon.

[B.Banner]

I've been testing some new settings and I've currently got the router stable for 6 days with everything working still.  If I hit 10 days uptime I'll post my recommended settings and maybe furry can test to confirm as a workaround until the next firmware.

[Avitus77]

Can you please post the settings your using?
What Firmware are you currently running?

I've been tinkering with my router all weekend and haven't had any improvement. perhaps your settings could help.
Also, now after restoring firmware & adjusting settings, know I have to restart the router EVERY morning because all my Wifi Devices don't connect to the internet. They all show connected to the router, but no internet access and I can not connect to the router through a web browser to reboot. I o pull the plug every morning.
Thanks!
