CM1200 slows down after 24-48 hours of uptime when using link aggregation

Well, after two support tickets (since both my switch and modem are/were under warranty and had online and email support still) and getting bounced around, I lost faith in trying to solve the issue with NETGEAR.  And honestly, that's your only hope since you can't fetch the firmware binary blobs yourself and even if you could AND had the means to unpack them, there's no way to load the image onto the device yourself if you or someone else was able to figure out what the issue is.  As far as the OS on the device, it is certainly only conjecture at this point, but if it indeed is Linux I'm not sure what permutation of hardware configuration would lead them to develop their own LACP driver, even on a non-x86/x86_64 architecture like ARM/AARCH64/MIPS/etc.

To be honest, the only reason I'm still replying to this thread is that I'm salty that nobody at NETGEAR has even acknowledged that this is clearly an issue with an advertised feature and I'm hoping that keeping the thread alive will get it noticed. (Which would definitely help you if you're staying on the CM1200 bandwagon.)
