Maybe, maybe it takes a bit longer from download start until the wifi
connection drops, but that's the only effect I can see, which is hard to
quantify and may be a placebo effect. Trying to download anything CD-size
(like a movie) causes wifi connection drop not later than in a minute. And
immediately after starting ethernet download, wifi connection is
effectively blocked - no web page can be opened for example (though pings
leisurely get thru). It all ends in wifi disconnect soon, and then
connection is not re-established until download on NAS finishes.
If the connection recovers after the download finished, then this is a
different issue. This ticket is about the connection going down and not
being able to recover until a reboot/wifi driver reload.
Please open a separate ticket for that, as the issue might be somewhere
else, like e.g. the ethernet driver eating all cpu leaving none for the
wifi driver etc.
