Hi rodrigo8,

                      Check for firmware upgrade if any.

I did the firmware update before this problem.
Also tried to put it close to the router did not solve

I set to use only 2G and stopped rebooting. But I need the two bands working together.

I suspect it is some incompatibility with the channels frequency , so the reason the hardware keeps restarting trying to find a free channel.

I tried to use FastLane which for my case I can not use because I have 2G cameras and I need 5G at the same time.

When I returned to the normal configuration 2G/5G together in attempt to stop restart it returned to normal at least for now. 100% sure it's a software problem related to frequencies, I hope Netgear fixes this by the way i'm IT technician.
