Schedule reboot or anywhere access is loss

Ok night hawk needs a reboot Schedule option in router settings. It should be very simple to add this since firmware automatically restarts the router or if you change WiFi security codes. There needs to be a option to check “should router reboot automatically if devices are not receiving data packets” . Another option “should router reboot if mobile app Shows router disconnected in anywhere Access”. I keep getting glitch of router losing WiFi devices when I have usb storage connected to the router at random times. So this suggestions would fix the issue.

  • I agree and automated / schedule reboot is needed for routers.

    This would refresh the provider connection too, not just the router.

  • I agree. It's needed to keep it clean running! Almost ANY 'smart' device runs better after a reboot!

    Hey, Netgear, have you put the Nighthawks on back burner already? I have not seen any new stuff for it since I purchased it.
