I just did a factory reset. Resetup my Router and this time everything working. VPN and DMZ... everything. I set the router to do a reboot every night at 4:50 AM. Let see if it can stay up this time!

Man, what the hell is this! Does Netgear know this issues? I just file a support ticket. Does anyone of you have the same issues contacted support? This is bull**bleep**!

Don't reset!

The way to get them to work is bring them up with nothing connected, then connect them up; they will work fine till rebooted...

I though people say you can just go into the router web setup. Monitoring, Diagnostics then hit the Reboot button. And that way the router will stay up.

    The GUI reboot doesn't/didn't work for me after the latest firmware update. I haven’t had a power outage since the last fiasco and when mine is running, it runs FANTASTIC!
    
    I am reluctant to pull the power to test if these ~~fixes~~ Band-Aids worked. As the last time the power went out it took weeks until it came back up.
