Thanks for the reply. So I purchased a router from bestbuy and I cannot perform upgrades because only a ISP, that shouldnt have access to my personal router, is allowed to...great product Netgear.
With that being said, I am trying to connect this cable router directly to the coaxial feed from my Spectrum internet. I was on the phone for 3 hours yesterday with tech support and the signal could not sync...it would lock in but would not sync, therefore I could not get internet connection. The tech said that I should try to perform a firmware upgrade, since Spectrum says it should be at V2.01.22, when my current firmware is at V2.01.18 (src: https://kb.netgear.com/000036375/What-s-the-latest-firmware-version-of-my-NETGEAR-cable-modem-or-modem-router).
Should I keep troubleshooting with Spectrum?

What if it's not Netgear's decision?
