Droppped connections on access point
I have a wac124 set up as an access point. It is connected to the main router but it constantly drops the connections and am having to constatnly reset it. Sometimes even after the reset, my devices ...
Are you able to go online just fine if your connect a PC/laptop directly to your router?
No. The WAC124 internet LED light is off when the problem resurfaces.
Is your router a NETGEAR device? If yes, what is the model of it?
No the main router is s aLinksys WRT3200ACM
Just want to clarify. You mentioned on the first sentence of your initial post that your WAC124 is set up as an access point. Based from your answers to my questions, does it mean that the WAC124 is set to Router Mode then its connected to a Linksys router?
Kindly check also the surroundings where the WAC124 is deployed. There might be electronic devices that might affect the wireless signal. Let me share the article below:

The WAC 124 is set up as an access point connected to the Linksys router.
There is no other electronics around the wac124 other than it’s own power source plugged into a surge protector.
