Have you made sure you have the latest firmware? also have you tried to adjust the wireless channel on the router?

I won't make any changes to the router, because I shouldn't have to. The router makes the best decision for the environment.
It does have the latest firmware as of 2 days ago, and now it needs a restart twice a day.

I returned the Netgear for a tp-link. That's a shame, because I was trying to remain brand-loyal - Arlo, nighthawk, extender, etc.
