Please bear with me here for a minute as the same "FIX" works for AsusMerlin...

So after months of stable operation with stock TMO firmware I began to have random crashes. I was able to access the router and found that although I could ping 8.8.8.8 through the router utilities, but wireless had stopped completely. Reboots did nothing to fix the issue. Then I discovered that by entering a value into the DNS field (i.e. 8.8.8.8) wireless operation resumed immediately. It worked for a random period of time then wireless stopped again. By simply removing the DNS entry (erasing what I had done before) and applying the change wireless began to work again (no reboot required). THIS "FIX" CONSISTENT AND REPEATABLE in over 20 tests.

I then loaded CFE 1.0.2.0 and loaded the latest Merlin release. Same exact issue... and the same exact fix works and is consistently repeatable.

Perhaps this can help to lead to a fix for this annoying issue that seems so prevalent?
