R7000 keeps dropping wifi connection
My Nighthawk Router R700 keeps dropping signal. I've rebooted it, reset it and checked for updates. Still having problems. I've even done this with my modem. These are brand new, only 3 1/2 months o...
I tried 1.0.9.42 and several other Netgear stock firmwares. All same result WIFI 5 GHZ is completely unstable, drops connections, have to reboot the router to get to come back to life. I finally flashed Fresh Tomato as a last resort before replacing the router. Been up and stable for 4 days with no issues. Netgear needs to fix their crappy firmware.
That is EXACTLY the same problem I had with the defective AC1900. Thank you for bringing this up billscott92787 !
That's more than I was willing to do considering it was a brand new router fresh out of the box and I just dropped a good chunk of change for this.
The replacement AC1900 has been in place for the for past 5 days without ANY hitches.
