N450/CG3000Dv2 WiFi drop and Interface Lockup
Last week Time Warner Cable pushed firmware V3.01.06 to my N450 modem/router. Since the update, i can't go more than 24 hours without having to pull the power because WiFi drops ALL devices. After ...
I did a factory reset and have not been loosing connection for a few days. In the genie menu there is a place to backup your settings. After the reset you can restore the settings from the file you saved. The only thing it didn't restore was the user and password to access the router. The default is admin for user and password for password. Then you can sign in and change that. Still can't usb port to work.
Update....
I ended up doing a factory reset on my device this past Monday or Tuesday. Sine then I have not had a connection drop. I am still running the V3.01.06 firmware as well so I think that is going to be the overall "fix" for people having this issue.
Same as ML525 since doing a factory reset it appears I have been stable for about 20 hours so far. TWC blamed Netgear and said they cannot revert to previous firmwares it isn't possible. It appears you must press and hold the recessed pin button above the cable connection 10-15 seconds until it flashes a light blue on front and then set up your wireless network again. If that doesn't work new modem/router time. Chasing any other solution with netgear/twc is a waste of time, trust me. I have been round and round with techs, support and everything else you can imagine.
Goodluck TWC people. Also should note my issue was a reset every few hours and not every 15-25 seconds lag some have reported. May be same issue, different result though.
