R9000 Resets on Reboot
Hey guys,
I upgraded my router's firmware to 1.0.4.28 today (was 1.0.4.26 before), and it now keeps reset the whole setting everytime after rebooting the device. I can't even restore my settin...
- It also did the same thing to mine, an hour and 26 minutes later with Berger’s tech support and then making me do a reimage and reset on the router 3 times over the phone (yes I tried all that before I called including downgrading also) they finally decided they would RMA this one. It ran perfectly fine on 1.0.4.26 but this upgrade trashed something internally and there doesn’t seem to be any coming back from it. Good luck!
I honestly don't know, bro. I'm not feeling happy that I got my router RMA'd, they should have made it perfect considering its top tier price tag. I bought this router because I want to experience fast, stable wifi and NAS transfer for 2, 3 years or longer, until a new revolutionary wifi standard comes out. But it has only been three months and now we are having this issue. I am the lucky one since mine is still relatively new and under warranty, but for other people it's like $400/yr renting a router or basically tossing money into river. I think I would also choose ASUS or other brands next time, and definitely not Netgear.

1. You may try this link for the hard reset: https://www.lifewire.com/hard-reset-rule-for-routers-3971318
2. Try to re install again the router and put the put the configured settings.
3. Reboot device after.
I will try this and hopefully this works.
