Please make sure you upgrade to the latest release and let me know whether you still experience the disconnection issue.

Since my previous message I have done a few things. I did double check the AT&T APN and it should be correct. I checked for an update through the device and I believe it downloaded it correctly. The disconnecting problem is gone and it was likely poor signal quality at my house, but now I have a new problem. I can connect to the device and no matter how good the signal is, I can't use the wifi now. This even happens in the strongest signal areas of the city. Where before I got 30mbps near the best tower, I can't connect to test the speed or do anything. Further, I purchased a cell phone booster, which uses band 12, to make the signal better at my house. The booster is working for my wife's phone, which is also AT&T, but does not seem to affect the Netgear Nighthawk. What can I do?
