so just pm christine for the beta link? coz I never had this issue for the first 2 months but now..this is recurring every hr. although it comes back after 1-2 mins. still im disconnected. I have multiple routers designated by purpose but this one is my main one considering this is damn expensive and I expect the best from this..I'm always a netgear user I can't believe this is happening to my most expensive router. i never had this issue with my r7000s even my ex7000 and 7800. this is ridiculous I have to move all my automation hub away from this router to my ex7000 which is hooked up directly to my att fiber router. this is frustrating.

Just curious.  I never see the fan inside of the r9000 turn.  Is this typical?  I put my hand over the top of the router and it is is pretty cool to warm but never hot.    I just use it for interney and my home automation devices, so I don't game with the router.
