I have had the same problem with 2 of the Netgear units. I am going to try your idea and keep my fingers crossed.
Kind of defeats the cable wireless router combo concept don't you think? Like most people I don't want to pay for leasing a modem or buying a seperate cable modem. I also don't want two components cluttering space. Why not just make a product that works? That's what we pay for? I don't by a car so that the steering wheel comes off while I'm driving, right?
Other advantage to the 2 box solution is typically the modem/router combo do not have as feature rich set as a good standalone router. Use one box if that is what makes you happy. I just like being able to swap out one part should I want to.
No I'm not saying tha tyour wrong. I thought the same way, but I just don't want to pay leasing hardware. A good router and seperate cable modem is a bit more costly. I'm tempted to build out my own router and call it day.

You do have to be careful and buy one that the ISP has on their approved list to be sure it will work.
