My RDP connection to the server drops, pings to the router and to the wired client both fail, and I can't access the router's control panel. I've ruled out the server losing connection, because the router is also inaccessible. But here's the weird thing - despite the router being inaccessible, the laptop can continue to get out onto the internet. So clearly my laptop remains connected to the router... it just can't communicate with anything local. After about 30-60 seconds it resolves on its own.
Anyone seen something like this before?
Could it be an issue with the router sort of snagging in a way due to hitting the router's processing/memory capacity or something like that and wireless connection being prioritized due to a setting? Sounds more likely to be something like that than there being a power/wiring issue within the router causing this situation, but who knows.
Have you tried to see if you setting the router to reboot say once a day makes the issue go away or at least become less common?
