Archer A7 orange internet status light
I have an Archer A7 router connected to a Verizon FIOS internet service. The ethernet cable from the FIOS box is connected to the WAN port on the A7. On average every 2-3 days, I lose internet access on any device connected to the router. During those times, the internet status light on the router changes from the usual green to orange. The only way I've been able to get past this point is to cycle the router off and on.
To troubleshoot, I temporarily replaced the A7 with a spare router, keeping all wiring and connections the same. I experienced no connectivity issues with the spare router. The problem returns when I switch back to the A7.
Searching the forum, I see this has been mentioned several times but I haven't seen any solutions. Any updates on what's causing this issue and how to resolve?
