I am using a Archer C50 dual band router. I have 3 laptops and 3 Android 5 TV boxes (only using 2.4G). They all have no problem connecting to the router (i.e. got their DHCP address from the router and hence status shows connected ). But from time to time, my Android TV boxes can not access internet while my laptops are surfing the net with no problem. It is random, sometimes 1 of the 3 Android Box is blocked, sometimes 2 and sometimes all 3. Sometimes I can recover by powering off the Android box. In the worse case, I have to power off and power on the router. I did not set up any blocking in my router firmware. I am not sure what is the problem. But it is only happening to my Android box and my laptop never had any issue.

I went to the firmware download page.It shows 2 available download
Archer C50(EU)_V1_160411.zip and Archer_C50_v1_150325.

After extraction
The Archer C50(EU)_V1_160411 shows Archer_C50v1_0.9.1_3.0_up_boot(160411)_2016-04-11_13.38.13.bin
The Archer_C50_v1_150325. shows Archer C50v1_0.9.1_1.0_up_boot(150325)_2015-03-25_14.03.35

Not sure what (EU) means? (may be Europe)
So I think my box should be using The Archer_C50_v1_150325.
But this is my current firmware level (as posted earlier Firmware Version:0.9.1 1.0 v0045.0 Build 150325 Rel.43331n)

(i.e. got their DHCP address from the router and hence status shows connected )

My proposition. please enter in DHCP Settings on the router any of DNS addresses (8.8.8.8 / 8.8.4.4) or those from your internet provider. After Saved you do a router reboot.
