Hi Garyr51,
Try to reset the router to factory default and reconfigure it manually. Change the channel of both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz.
Hi PChell,

Having the same problems.. thought it was the crappy Netgear USB Wifi AC1200 (which has also had tons of problems).. replaced with a Linksys usb. works better but still having drops. I think it is the $200+ R7000...... Tried all the ideas.. reset, hardware reset, channels, my provider looked at it twice..
Netgear.... come up with a solution or should i just go with all linksys?
Hi sjavanovich,
1. What is the firmware version of the router?
2. How many wireless devices connected? Are all of them having the same problem?
3. Does it happen on 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz or both connection?
