Connection interrupted briefly on wake/power-cycle

[Top Chelf]

Hey all,

 

Having a weird issue on our home network. I have two computers connected to a nighthawk R8000P. When computer A is in use, and computer B is off, everything works fine (vice versa). Once computer B is turned on, the connection for computer A briefly bounces and disconnects (vice versa). By the time computer B has powered on, both computers are online and the network shows no log entries of an interrupt. No drops or interrupts when both computers are in use. The same occurs when a computer is powered off. If computer A is still being used and computer B powers down, the connection is again interrupted briefly. Unsure if wireless connections are impacted. The issue is most impacting when gaming, as a real-time connection is required. This compared to streaming content that has buffered past the few moments the connection is dropped. Any ideas? Thanks

 

Edit: Windows 10 on both computers. Current on all updates for all devices.

 

Attempted fixes:

Searched router settings to disable wake/reset

Disabled power management from computer to avoid power cycling or interrupting connection on boot
