What firmware version do you have on the device?
A number is more useful than "the latest". (It may not be by the time people read this.) There can also be newer versions, or "hot fixes", that do not show up if you check for new firmware in the browser interface.
It might also help if you told people what the modem is in front of this router, if there is one. The make and model number could be useful. Is it, by any chance, also a router, with a set of LAN ports on the back?
The reason for asking is that a lot of people turn up here trying to put a router behind a modem that is also a router. That can complicate troubleshooting.
I logged into the router and satellite units earlier and the firmware on all 3 devices is V1.1.7.134_2.0.65. I will attach some screenshots as well. As for my cable modem, I am using a Netgear branded one. However, I don't recall the exact model at this moment. I can get this info if you think it is necessary. What I can tell you for certain is that it is a stand-alone modem and has a single ethernet jack to connect into my router.
