I have had some problems with the connection to my RT-AC87U the past few days.
It started when I made a network bridge, between my ethernet adapter and USB WiFi dongle. I wanted to test whether it would give me more bandwidth (which it didn't weirdly) so I deleted it, removed the dongle and just continued using my ethernet connection. When I started my computer the next morning the connection worked fine for about half a minute, then it stopped and after about a minute it came back. I was confused but just accepted it. This went on for about a week. This morning is started my computer, as usual, but then I heard my sister asking if the internet was down for me as well. This got me curious, so I did some tests and it turns out, that when I start my computer, the router restarts for some reason. I'm not sure if I can call it restart since it seems to continue running but turns off the WiFi and the wired connections are interrupted.
I am clueless to what could cause this behavior and am really desperate to find out since it seems, that this isn't at all normal for a router to do such a thing.
