Lease expires causing internet to disconnect for a few seconds every 24hrs
This started about 5 weeks ago. Lease expires & internet disconnects for a few seconds every 24 hrs, ethernet & wifi. Im stumped, why would this suddenly start happening? I even changed from arris 820...
- I decided to just buy the nighthawk xr700. Zero disconnects & everything is running better than ever.
You might talk to your ISP and see what there policy is on lease time with the modem and there ISP services.
What FW are you using on the XR router?
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update?

I even changed from arris 8200 to a new nighthawk cm1200 modem; still happens/no change. I have spectrum ultra 400 internet & my speeds are constant at 480 gbps, ethernet or wifi connected. I’ll take any suggestions & appreciate it. Thank you
- What does FW mean?
I called my isp spectrum, and was told by the representative that was above his paygrade, when i asked if they could change my lease time/help with my issue.
Also, I haven’t done a reset to factory condition. I was trying to avoid that... but I’ll try that when i get home in a few days.
