- I purchased a R7000P Netgear Nighthawk AC2300. It crashed on my LAN as well, and I returned it.
- I then connected up my old Netgear WNR3500L V2 -- Flashed with Tomato-Shibby -- and it worked fine for the two weeks I had it connected.
- I have now flashed my R7000 router with Tomato-Shibby "tomato-R7000-ARM--132-AIO-64K".
- This has stopped the router from crashing. It has been more than 3 weeks without any problems.
- The fact that the R7000 and R7000P both crashed tells me that base firmware has an issue.
- I'll stick with Tomato, but will really have to think hard about what my next router purchase will be!
Are you using the 2.4ghz band? There's been lots of issues lately with it, 5ghz has been working fine though...
