When you get connection drops does the router power cycle itself or does all the lights stay on and it just randomly reconects? netgear should get the logs of these users devices to help patch the issue in a hotfix firmware.

Another "issue" I've noticed with the new firmware is that Xbox one now doesn't recognize the new WPA2(AES)/WPA3 config and does not accept the WLAN config.
