Having a radom lockup issue...on two different wac720 units at different sites the wireless just stops, can not log into the unit, disconnect/reconnect ethernet has no effect. Have to power cycle ...

That is good to know, I have 4 andriod devices connected...3 of them are Samsungs, none are S7. If that is the problem then Netgear has a major bug in their stuff...I have a second access point from Linksys I will bring up and move the android devices to it and see if it makes a difference.

I set a personal record yesterday of 8 reboots....It could be my Samsung S5, seems to happen more when I get home. Wife says it is fine until I get home, so I am the source of the all the wireless problems. My Samsung S5 is hooked to the 2.4, maybe I will hook it to the 5 and see if that makes a difference. Not sure what an andriod device could do to take down a WAP, but worth a shot. By the way it is connected to other Wifi all the time when I am at difference clients, inlcluding some WAC730's...it has never taken them down.
