N300 WiFi Range Extender periodically disconnects
My range extender has been acting strange recently. It has been disconnecting from the internet and seemingly restarting itself every few minutes, making it practically unusable. I then tried updating to the latest firmware to no avail.

What router is it connecting to?
What firmware is on it?
How do you know its rebooting?
Did you try a factory reset and manual reinstall (not using wps)

You have posted your message in the section of this community given over to Nighthawk WiFi Routers. (This is easily done, given Netgear's complicated community structure.)
Many questions apply to different types of device, so you might get responses here, but you might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your hardware, in the appropriate section for your device. That's probably here:

I will ask the Netgear moderator to move your message.
In the meantime you could visit the support pages:

Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware.
You may have done this already. I can't tell from your message.
