I cannot access the Internet with my NETGEAR router; what troubleshooting steps should I follow?
I too have this problem. I am using a Comcast Cisco cable modem. I have two Win 10 PCs connected by ehternet ( these share a single cable to the router as I use a simple non wifi router) Previously to installing the Netgear router, I used this setup successfully with a Medialink wifi router but the ethernet was limited to 100mbs. Now, I have to power off/on the Netgear at least once a day as it loses internet connection. I tried the MAC spooling but that stopped all internet access so I reset the MAC setting in the router admin dialog to Use Default. I updated the firmware to the latest un installation of the Netgear last week.
