vkdelta, I have factory defaulted the router several times as well as rebooted the router several other times.

I don't know if I have a device that is causing this because the only thing that changed recently is that I bought a new cell phone. Shortly after I brought that device home I started having issues.

I also have the same problem with the device. I just upgraded my phone to a Microsoft Lumia 950 XL. Is there a solution? I bought my device just under a year ago.

I think it may have something to do with a Lumia setting. I returned my phone and the problem is gone.

I think my Netgear device is dying. With my phone not connected to wifi, the C6300 still drops wifi and sometimes even my cable connection drops, my PC is connected thru ethernet. I'm keeping my Lumia 950 XL, great phone and I will never return to android nor ios.
