EX7000 Wifi Range Extender Dropping out after upgrade latest Firmware
Hello
Range extender recently upgraded to latest release version EX7000-V1.0.1.78_1.0.140. Now the extender keeps on dropping off usually for around few seconds. The signal received from Linksy...
I have carried out these steps and downgraded to the previous version, and reset to factory settings. However my range extender still keeps disconnecting at regular intervals
I gave up on it and returned mine to Amazon. They took it back even though I was technically past the return date limit. Then I unplugged my Netgear Nighhawk main router and replaced it with a Deco mesh system. I'll be damned if I was going to buy Netgear's mesh system after the way they mishandled the EX7000 problems. How can I trust their products anymore? They used to be the best name in the wi-fi business, but not anymore. I've had the Deco mesh system for several weeks now and so far it hasn't failed a single time. Sorry, Netgear, you lost a loyal customer over this issue. Now that I know there are other brands offering more reliable service without the annoying India call centers and sub par customer service, I won't be back to Netgear anytime soon. Good riddance.
