WNDR 4300 loses 2.4GHz Radio daily
I purchased a 4300 router in November of 2013. Soon after purchase I had to reboot the router daily to keep the wireless working. Tech support provided a new firmware update which solved the problem. ...
- Feb 28, 2015The issue was never about the Cable Modem. I fixed the issue by swapping out the Router for someone else's and so far it's been rock solid.
Thanks anyway.

Is there any pattern to the loss, is it daily, random, roughly how frequent, after a reboot does the problem reappear quickly?
It’s possible that the 2.4GHz band is being affected by interference from non-networking wireless devices like video senders, baby monitors, security cameras etc. These are often high power wideband devices so can affect you WiFi network even if they are in a nearby neighbours house.
