AC1750 WIFI CABLE MODEM ROUTER DROPPING WIFI CONNECTION CONSTANTLY
Hello, For the past several weeks my modem router AC1750 has been dropping wifi connection. It happens several times a day, the connection blinks out and comes back or drops for several minutes....
What channels are you using? Auto? Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and any unused channel on 5Ghz.
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?
Has a power OFF of the RBR and RBS for 30 seconds since last FW update been performed?

I have unplugged 60 seconds and replugged it (I do this every day for work) and that doesnt seem to fix it. Im not a techical person so im not sure what more to do. My ISP is spectrum and they say everything is fine on their end. I pay for 400 download and 20 upload. Wired I getting 240 download and 20 download, wifi im getting 28 download and 25 upload (thats with my laptop sitting right next to the modem). I was going to try https://kb.netgear.com/23783/Improving-2-4Ghz-Wireless-Performance-by-Changing-Channel but the link http://www.routerlogin.net doesnt open for me. Please help me!
Thank you!
I have no idea what channels Im using. Where would I see this and make these changes? Im not sure where to login to gain access to the modem. Yes my computer can see 3 wifi networks from my neighbors, all very weak signals.
If you have the C6300, try factory resetting it. push and hold reset for 7-15 seconds while its powered on.
Thanks. Ill give that a try. Any steps on what to do after I reset it?
Install it?
then you can try changing the wireless channels if its still dropping.
