Have the ISP check the signal and line quality UP to the modem. Be sure the ISP provisions the modem correctly.
Be sure there are no coax cable line splitters in the between the modem and ISP service box.
Be sure your using good quality RG6 coax cable up to the modem.
Be sure to power OFF the modem for 1 minute them back ON.

What Firmware version is currently loaded?
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update?
- 90sScottDec 17, 2020AspirantFW version 2.1.1.4 most up to date per net gear website. Came loaded with it. Have checked multiple times for an update since I installed this 7 days ago.
Have factory reset twice with a clean set up on a hardwired laptop. Still no fix.
NG support has had me change wireless channels, check ping, reboot, and reset multiple times. Maybe just a defective unit?
