C3700-100NAS Drops Connections and Glitchy
Just got this modem-router combo. Main PC is connected by ethernet cable and doesn't seem to lose connection, but Day of Defeat periodically freezes and jumps during the game for a split second. Wifi connected devices periodically lose connection for short periods or get "unable to connect to the internet" errors, which fix themselves with or without going thru troubleshooting apparently citing network issues. Netgear support has upped this to a level 2 issue. Any ideas about how to resolve this or do I just go back to my older separate modem and router?

If I don't get a solution I will return the device to BB and get a Motorola.

What the tool does is analyze the wireless network connections in your vicinity to show which channels are most used. As it turns out, my c3700 was in auto mode using channel 6 while 4 other neighbors were using the same channel for their networks. The tool also showed me that there were several unused channels available. I changed my router settings to point to an unused channel and haven't been dropped since.
I've seen a lot of wireless connection complaints on the c3700 while searching for answers to solve my problem. I'm not sure if this router is sensitive to channel sharing, but this solution may be worth trying....

I've been having similar problems with my C3700 (I have Comcast Xfinity), where my laptop will connect to wifi, but there's no internet connection, then if I change from the 5g to 2.4 or vice-versa, it'll get connectivity.. it doesn't seem to be a solid, reliable product

Hello calgecko
Have you tried clearing out you wireless network lists in your laptop then trying to reconnect to the network it could be some old setting it had saved when trying to connect to the network. Also you may want to try changing channels on the wireless network. Last thing I would so is try to change the SSID I have seen this work for some people.

Hello Lalin
Who is your ISP? have you checked all your connections and bypassed the splitter if you have one on your cable line.
