Connection drops 5-6 times per hour

Since 4/1 I've been having issues where my wifi connection will drop on multiple machines (OS X & Windows 10).

The wifi connection will disappear and when I attempt to rejoin the network my system will say that the network isn't found.

 

I can disable/enable my wifi on my laptops however I can't reconnect to them.  I have to unplug the C3700 in order to reconnect.  I have changed the router channels, reset the router via the dashboard as well as the button on the bottom of the device.  My unit is 7-8 months old with the latest firmware.

 

I'm in need of assistance.

Model: C3700|N600 Cable Gateway Docsis 3.0

Have you noticed your speed decrease as well?

Hello everyone 

 

What isp does everyone have? and does the internet just go out on the wifi or is it both the WIFI and LAN connections?

I'm with Comcast and as far I know it's just wifi and not the LAN connection.

 

What's odd is that I sometimes I can connect to the 5G network (or non-5G depending on which one I'm currently connected to) and it works after the original network kicks me off.

 

I've set my channels to ones where there is no other traffic.

Hello DS404 

 

You may want to contact Netgear support if this keeps happening may be a issue with the hardware of the wifi if all your devices are having this issue.
