RT-AC66-R, running 380.66_4. Yesterday evening, I was having odd problems with my router- the WiFi side worked perfectly, but the wired side kept dropping connection somewhere. Additionally, when I turn off my PC (hard wired), normally its port light on the router would turn off. During the problem time, when I shut down the PC, its port light on the router stayed on. I rebooted the router and PC and that fixed it. I had rebooted the PC previously, and that didn't fix it, so I suspect rebooting the router fixed it.

Around the same time, my iPhone 6, Apple Watch 0, and my wife's iPhone 6 (all on WiFi) each rebooted over a period of about 2 hours. They are all running the latest OS.

So my question- is this all an amazing coincidence, or what was going on?
