i was able to get the WiFi to work by turning off mirror settings on Both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz and only having one of the WiFi on and the other turned off. Now the other problem is when the 2.4 GHz is on the WiFi i get .14 Mbps and on the 5 GHz WiFi i get 20 Mbps when i get 740 up and down on a wired connection.

Hey, welcome to the forum!

Sorry to hear you're having these issues. I would first recommend upgrading to this firmware and then doing a factory reset as there are WiFi improvements there and overall should be more stable: https://forum.netduma.com/topic/33236-announcement-new-r2-firmware-30179/

Then double check whether you've input your expected speeds into bandwidth settings.

This fix works but seemingly randomly the Internet goes out then it's back to the same problem. When it goes out i still have ethernet but the WiFi has no internet connection. To fix this everytime it happens i have to factory reset the r2 and set everything up again.

How often are you experiencing that? Are you using mirror mode for WiFi?

I am using mirror mode and it doesn't happen that often probably once a month 

If it is once a month then that is probably your IP renewing itself so in the gateway settings give the R2 a static/reserved IP and that may resolve it.

Access your gateway interface, default is likely 192.168.1.1 or 10.0.0.1 and then it in LAN Settings you should be able to reserve an IP - you can use the same IP as is shown in the R2 System Information page under WAN IP. We're making improves for WiFi at the moment, it seems to be a bit delicate at the moment but we'll sort that.

Disable the WiFi, apply, reboot, enable, apply and reboot again and see if it is consistent after that.
