Nighthawk AX2400
I've called tech support and they were no help, but does anyone know how or what setting to use to make my router automatically reconnect to my modem? Everytime my net goes down I have to drive over there and reboot my router! The router I have at home automatically connects to the modem when electricity comes back on or a wifi outage. Someone help please!! Thank you!

What router do you own?
AX2400 is not a unique Netgear model number. Many devices come with the AC/AX tag, but it is essentially a label that Netgear, and others, attach to hardware to describe wifi speeds.
Look at the label on the device for the Model Number. And, if there is one, include the "V" bit to show the hardware version. If there is no V number, then you have V1.

This happened to me when I had a modem/router in modem only mode. The router timed out before the modem had usable internet connection.
There are various electrical widgets out there that can deal with these circumstances. Or install a UPS.
