My roommates and I are using an Archer C7 v3, and their Macs play nicely with the router. My PC, on the other hand, kicks the router offline repeatedly (anywhere from a few seconds to a few hours after I connect to the internet; often within 10-30 minutes). I've tried updating the firmware (it's currently on 3.14.3 Build 150508 Rel.42275n) and changing the channel from Auto to specific channels, but it doesn't seem to make any difference. This has been going on for months (since we first got the Archer C7, my computer was fine with the really old router we had before and on other wireless networks, so I don't think the problem is the computer-related) and I'm getting pretty sick of it. Is there any way to make the Archer C7 work properly, or is it time to just get a router from another company?

When you upgraded the firmware did you hard reset the router back to Factory defaults and reload your settings from scratch not using any backup file?

After updating the firmware I manually reset all the settings from scratch.

If your PC has a network adapter of Killer or QCA61x4, then please follow the solution on the other thread and install the beta firmware for Archer C7 V3.
