- Jul 09, 2020Hi, just wanted to update.
After months of having disconnect issues with my router on both wired and wireless, troubleshooting everything (modem and other devices) in forums, troubleshooting with my ISP, I finally had to call Netgear for a possible warranty claim.

Yes my internet was slow because of a "channel filter" device on the outside cable line, but it was still on there when I got the replacement router and I no longer got random disconnects to both wired and wireless devices. So, yes I did everything I could, the warranty claim was the last resort. As it should be.
