Upgrade to latest firmware yesterday, no drops since. I consider that "fixed" as often as the VPN would hang or drop. While I was in the Admin panels I also changed QoS for my work computer to Highest. I doubt that had any effect, I believe the firmware upgrade fixed the problem.

I have the same issue here. It's very annoying and disrupting.
Could someone from Netgear support give some suggestions? Looks like it's a very general issue for Netgear rounters.

i have the R7900P nighthawk from costco using pulse secure vpn. my vpn connection on wireless 5ghz band randomly drops. At times, it happens every 10min for an hour then would stay connected for a few hours. tried using wired connection and still getting dropped. i've given up. ready to return this buggy monster router to costco for a refund. never buy netgear again! also had uPnP issues with my cameras so had to turn that off also. why spend $$$ on a router but can't reliably use its features? and netgear support is reading some type of script coz they don't seem to understand the problem and i had to keep repeating the issue. the suggestion as always has been reboot and factory reset.
