R7000 Router dropping Connection to Modem multiple times a day
Multiple times a day, my internet just goes away. I have to reboot the router to restablish the connection. I do not have to reboot the Modem. Sometimes I work from home my VPN does not drop when ...
R7000 V1.0.9.88 causes many problems for many people.
You need to rollback to V1.0.9.42 which people agree is the latest stable f/w release.
Quite EASY to do... on the top, click on SUPPORT. Then enter your ROUTER model, R700 and click on the proper model that shows and press enter. Next screen, click on DOWNLOADS. At the end of the list is PRIOR VERSIONS. V1.0.9.42 the one you want and you see a '+'. Click on that and there are TWO links. Click on the README and just FOLLOW those instructions.
Rolled back to V1.0.9.42 and had no issues today, will keep a watch on it.
Changed firmware back to V1.0.9.42_10.2.44 still having many buffering or dropping issues. I have 200mps from Optonline and still get buffering or dropping. If I connect direct to modem everything works great. Need a router or help with this crappy netgear R7000. Very frustrating
