Does Netgear R7000 router cycle in any way once every 60 seconds?

Nighthawk R7000, Firmware V1.0.9.88_10.2.88, Windows 10 ... I have a Bluetooth Stereo Speaker Interference once every 60 seconds. If it's the router cycling, I'd like to know, and if there is a fix I would like to know. For some reason 5.0 Ghz isn't activating so I'm dealing strictly with 2.4 GHz.

  • The R7000 doesn't have bluetooth so it shouldn't be impacting a bluetooth connection.

      Whether or not the router has Bluetooth is irrelevant. Transmission at two point x GHz has the potential to interfere with Bluetooth at the same rate. Thus the question does the router cycle once every 60 Seconds.

    A lot of questions are generic and apply to most routers, but your R7000 isn't one of the Mobile Routers, Hotspots & Modems covered in this section. These are very different animals.

     

    You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:

    Nighthawk WiFi Routers

    In the meantime you could visit the support pages:

    Support | NETGEAR

    Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware. Look at the label on the device for the model number.

    You may have done this already. I can't tell from your message.

    I mention it because Netgear stopped supplying printed manuals and CD versions some years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.
