C7000-100NAS Daily Reset
I have only been using this router since June 2016 when I first bought it new. It has worked great up until a few weeks ago. I am now having to constantly reset the router a few times a day in order to get the wifi to work. I am not sure what has changed to cause this. I even had my internet provider come out and check the incoming internet and there are no issues. It does seem warm on top of the router and the router is left out on a desk in the open so not sure how it could be overheating. Any suggestions on how to resolve this issue?

Hello Cardsfan1998
Have you tried to change the wireless channels in the wireless settings?

Thanks for responding. Yes, I have changed the 2.4 GHZ to various channels and nothing improves. In fact, I am only getting between 5 - 20mpps WIFI download on my PC's. It was originally set to Auto for channels but selecting a channel did not help. Last night I tried factory reset. That did not help.

This does not always work but I have seen in some cases if you try lowering the data rate on the wifi see if that helps.
