Netgear armour drops internet connection

Posted about this before, got the latest firmware (2.3.1.60) but when armour is activated my internet connection drops randomly, somethimes within a few days, other times within a day. When armour is disabled internet stays alive. Modem in bridge mode.

Any solutions?

    Hi Jowie . Go to your router Web page, click on and Advanced Tab, then Advanced Setup, and then Wireless Settings, and remove the checkmark from Enable Daisy Chain Topology. That worked for me. Not only did the internet drops completely died, but signal strength in areas of the network known to be weak is now much stronger. I don't know if this applies your situation, but for me, it was night and day. Good luck!
