Asus EA-N66 wan disconnects viz Asus AC68U

[chrisloup]

Just checking if any one has a clue

My asus ea-n66 frequently resets, sometimes frequently.

Jan 1 00:10:03 WAN Connection: WAN was exceptionally disconnected.
Jan 1 00:10:44 WAN Connection: WAN was restored.
Jan 1 06:35:58 WAN Connection: WAN was exceptionally disconnected.
Jan 1 06:36:10 WAN Connection: WAN was restored.
Jan 1 07:31:07 WAN Connection: WAN was exceptionally disconnected.
Jan 1 07:31:19 WAN Connection: WAN was restored.

yet, my other computers do not lose connection (usb-n66).
also, nothing significant at the asus rt68u router logs when the wifi goes off.

any clue? I've connected via the 5ghz too (but irrelevant, happens on 2.4ghz)

ea-n66 firmware: 1.0.8k

ASUS RT-AC68U firmware
3.0.0.4.374_5656
I've disabled both beamforming.
network key interval matches dhcp 86400
I've factory reset and configured dhcp reservations + qos + nat forwarding only.


the lan adapter to the ea-n66 is an onboard intel 82579v version = 12.10.28.0 (mb = asus p8z77-v), I have also disabled all power management settings on the lan adapter
