Ongoing issues when power is lost or router is rebooted - R7000

no resolution.  since original post i have replaced spectrum modem and yet again, yesterday, similar issues.  all was ok, then suddenly, no internet, no wireless connection to router on one laptop even though plenty of signal, yet another laptop would connect to router and i was able to use this laptop to reload config file.  spent hours trying to resolve.  finally was able to get network working again, after powering off enter network, wait 15 minutes and then powering back on.  several times within the last month i’ve been working on one laptop, no issues, then my other laptop would loose internet connection even though wi-fi signal level is high and i can continue working on primary laptop.  at this point other devices also loose connection.  with the laptop that is still connected i go to the r7000 home page and it shows 39 devices connected, internet connection status as good.  very frustrating - i used this router for years with no issues until i finally decided to update firmware…..

loosing confidence in netgear and their software teams
