CR1000A Wireless Slow/Drops

Newbie

First off --- My account is a Enthusiast to the forum, though I am a 35+ broadcast TV tech, and I am very proficient w/ networks and computers.

My plan is 1Gb up/down, and my wired speeds are in the high 800/low-mid 900 range.

I have a CR1000A router, and up until approx. 10 days ago, everything was working OK.  Then I noticed that the wireless up/down speeds fluctuated when doing fast.com, speedtest.net and Verizon speed tests.  Shortly after, my internet completely dropped.  A tech came out and replaced the ONT, and for a short time, everything seemed OK.  Then I had wireless dropouts.  A supervisor came out and replaced the router.  I still notice an issue w/ slow wireless speeds, as well as dropouts on my firestick - where I had to delete/add my router AND delete/re-load a couple of apps.

As far as devices, I have a number of IOT's, and they were NOT on the IOT portion of the router --- and I NEVER had an issue with wireless bandwidth.

In reading other posts, it seems that this model of router is buggy, and I wonder if I should downgrade back to G3100, if they have enough in stock.

Please tell me that I am NOT alone with this issue.
