I have been having an issue for the past week or so where I will click on a link or type in a web site into the browser and it will not load. If I stop it and click refresh it automatically loads. It happens several times a day, never the same sites, etc. Also, one of my HA devices, a Hubitat, is unable to connect to a remote IP needed to run my touchscreens (Sharptools) - happens every couple of minutes.
I had this issue a few months ago and went systematically through my devices and finally figured out that a Sony Soundbar had failed in a firmware update and was apparently causing everything. Initially removing it and then successfully completing the firmware update seemed to solve the problem. Of course, it could have been a coincidence and the root cause just stopped.
I have an Edgerouter Lite that is up to date connected to FIOS through an ethernet connection to the ONT.
I have tried capturing packets on the Edgerouter and analyzing then in Wireshark and other online tools looking for a specific device that is potentially causing the issue on my local network, but I am teaching myself and so far haven't been able to locate anything.
I am about to start the tedious process of unplugging and testing to see if I can locate it. But was wondering if there was any advice here that might help me to narrow this down? Thanks.
