Re: beta cax 30
The connection always fluctuates and not stabile. It works for a few hours but then the speed drop. On the mobile phones the wi-fi disconnects and for the other devices speed is weak.I did multiple factory reset but the same issue.Every day I have issues with connection.My plan is 400mbps.I got the max speed sometimes only if I enable Smart connect.to make it work again work I have to disableSmart connect that but the speed is no more than 100mbps and also in few hour is going close to 0mbps.Why the speed for 2.4 is 100mbps and for 5 is about 50mbps.To get max speed should be on Smart Conect always.
I had the same issues with the non beta but now is worst. Before just lost complete the wifi on smarphones . I'm thinking to put in the trash this equipment and go with Motorola. I have to pay $100 every month to xfinity for an internet that I cant use because Netgear don't care about the custumers.

Who's your ISP?I had quite a few issues on one of the versions through xfinity that no one else was having. It was practically unusable.
Any progress on this?
