Make sure you are on the latest firmware as a fix was released for this issue.

The modem is setup for my parents house. There is no other house nearby.. and "Bernie" has full bars WiFi signal. So ita coming from the modem, and after the second time I left the "NETGEAR18" SSID in place...thats gone and replaced by Bernie.
I googled it an others have also experienced this problem. Apparently "Bernie" is a Netgear Wifi SSID from the factory??
