I do not have the expertise to evaluate if NG routers are superior to other brands. Reviews suggest NG is a better router. Yet, mine failed and thus my view of NG product is based on my experience.

What steps if any have you tried to correct the problem.
Rebooted Cisco modem. Rebooted R7000.

I checked this forum out to see if anyone else had a similar problem. Found a thread with same problem and expert reply stated router required replacement.
