I checked the reviews of Netgear routes 120, 200, 500 and they all have a rebooting problem. Thanks for your help

What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
What channels are you using? Auto? Try Auto and 48 on 5Ghz. Or try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and 40 to 48 channel on 5Ghz.
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update?

Reset was done. Rebooted after setup.

Does the router reboot if the WAN cable is not connected to the modem?
Might try downgrading FW to v24 and see if this continues or not. IF so, I would presume the router is faulty.

Right now I'm waiting to see if any changes happen after I did a total system reboot after everything was setup. It only reboots a few times a day since I installed it yesterday. I also have a Netgear R7000 that acted the same way. We found a older verison of the firmware that solved the problem. If the reboot doesn't solve the problem then I'll try the channels.
