8 month old Netgear Nighthawk (still under warranty) died 8/15
8 month old Netgear Nighthawk (still under warranty) died 8/15. Set up a case #. 3 days of back and fourth as support seemed response. Then they went dark with no plan or solution in place. My son has a netgear router so I borrowed his power cord and it worked. With zero help from support I determined the power cord to be the problem. 8/22 I reported my findings that the router was fine and all I need is a new power cord. 8/23 they sent an update asking for the part# and my shipping address. I responded the same day with requested information. As of 9/2 I have not heard anything from Netgear support. I've had no WiFI for almost 3 weeks. Does anyone have suggestions as to how to get netgear to respond. RIDICULOUS!!!

You can buy generic adapters on eBay or Amazon for cheap. Just get the voltage correctly.
