We upgraded a client to this firmware today and are also experiencing multiple and frequent disconnects on WiFi. We are going to have to roll back to a previous version.

    Having the same issue. Resetting the router a couple of times a day to keep the wifi working. Is there any way to notify Netgear directly that this is an issue?

    Has anyone tried the DD-WRT firmware?

        Hi Routermania17,

         

        Forget the network first on your device or change the name of your 5GHz network.
