Nighthawk C7000v2 losing connection frequently
Have a Nighthawk router that is about 3 years old.
It keeps dropping connection, when I unplug the router and plug it back in it will allow access for maybe a hour at a time.
Sometimes it brings up a netgear page which asks me to change my password for the account but not for the netgear wifi access.
Not sure what to do.

- In a delayed follow-up on my issue, a couple weeks ago, my internet just randomly started working normally without any drops. Then, Xfinity followed up thru the Twitter DMs I had initiated with them. It appears there was an issue in my area. They didn't go into specifics, but a tech looked into supposedly and the issue is fixed. Internet is running smoothly and perfectly. Thank goodness I didn't spend $$ on a new device or start (gulp!) renting from them.
