Hi RuP,
If you connect the old router, will you still get stable connection?
Connect the computer directly to the modem and check if the connection is stable.

I am sorry for the late reply.
For me the problem still persists even with the latest firmware (V1.2.0.22_1.0.78) and I am now at the stage where I most likely will return the router to the dealer and buy another router from another brand.

Same issue here.
Running V1.2.0.22_1.0.78. Tried the factory reset and security settings with no success. router drops both 2.4 and 5. To pay this price tag and deal with such poor quality, I think it's time to switch to another manufacturer.

Running both bands at same time appears to be the issue which is very frustrating because it's a DUAL BAND router. Netgear need to fix this ASAP. I haven't tried running just 5ghz it may run independently as well.
