Does Netgear R7000 router cycle in any way once every 60 seconds?
Nighthawk R7000, Firmware V1.0.9.88_10.2.88, Windows 10 ... I have a Bluetooth Stereo Speaker Interference once every 60 seconds. If it's the router cycling, I'd like to know, and if there is a fix I...
Greetings,
The router doesn't "cycle" in any way. It runs continiously.
Yours must have something going on with it.
Power supply, incomplete / corrupt firmware, etc.
You should be able to turn wireless broadcasts on or / off individually.
Start by performing a full factory reset.
Wait several minutes and check the logs
If the system is restarting if that's what "cycling" means, you will see it.
Can you now turm your 5G wireless broadcast on?
If not, re-flash 109.88 and retest, following the steps above.
I'm running 1.0.9.42 on my R7000 which I am confident is stable. Try going back to it.
Retest again.
Ensure all wireless boradcasts can be changed, edited, turned off / on, etc
Once done, you can monitor
Once normal operation is established, if the device continues to restart, you should test the power supply with an ohms meter.

Thank you for that complete response. I've Since learned that since other devices are communicating via 5 GHz, that element of the router is working, and perhaps I'm too distant to function at that rate. More importantly, you've answered my primary question vis-a-vis cycling. Now that I know that the router doesn't cycle I can continue in my quest to determine what my Stereo Bluetooth Speaker is picking up every 60 Seconds.
I can consider this question Answered, and closed.
Cheers. Hope you can figure out the issue with your BT speaker.
