C7000-100NAS randomly drops internet connection
Hello, My C7000-100NAS modem seems to randomly drop it's Comcast connection. This happen on 2.4 ghz, 5 ghz, and wired connections. There is no pattern, however the dropped connection usually last...
The fix for us was change the 2.4 to channel 6 and 5ghz to channel 157 on the wireless tab of the Netgear genie ( or router login page ).
Glad that worked for you, but that is not the orginal issue. The orginal issue was dropping the connection with the ISP not the client devices connected to the router. Channel switching can help device connection connection issues in areas with a concentration of wireless routers all broadcasting, but that feature is unrealted to the routers connnection with comcast, centurylink, timewarner or whomever the ISP is.
