R7100LG Internet via LTE drops out every hour precisely (interrupts video conf calls, games, stream)
Hello,

Hi gbuisson,
Do you have the updated firmware (1.0.0.46) installed?

The new firmware is re-introducing the initial issue. :mansad:
As I said on 2017-09-22 07:47 PM, beta firmware R7100LG_Q1_1.0.0.33_1.0.6_test was not solving but impoving the issue: internet interruption precisely every 4 hour instead of every hour.
I have just installed the new firmware V1.0.0.34_1.0.6. The issue is back to what it was before: internet interruption precisely every hour.
Interruption every 4 hour was not OK but tolerable pending from a definitive fix. Interruption every hour is very disruptive & not acceptrable.
Please work on the issue with high priority.

Yeah, they send me also an FW - doesnt work - its ridiculous. Thats the most **bleep**ed up product i've ever bought.
Netgear - never again!

Same problem here, tried last FW version 1.0.0.38, internet connexion still drops every hour.
Strangly, if I ping a remote adress, there is no timeout. So the LTE connexion is still there. But it seems that all TCP / UDP connexions are droped.
Tried 2 sim cards from 2 different providers, makes no difference. LTE signal is good on both case.
Please help.

Hey,
The same happens with my R7100LG (firmware V1.0.0.38_1.0.6). All TCP connections seem to be dropped but if I constantly ping some address (like one of the Google's sites), everything seems to be fine.
Thanks,
Sebastian
