N300 C3000 Will the C3000 reset itself after a power outage? I am away from home several days often

Yes, it did reboot and working properly.

theoretically it should. I've had mine reboot normally after power failures. 

But if you're getting that many power failures, I'd look into a backup power supply. they're fairly inexpensive and are great to protect expensive electronics. After loosing 1 router, I invested in a backup power supply. nothing like loosing a several hundred dollar router to make a backup power supply look cheap.

Thanks for the reply.  I just got off the phone with a Netgear tec who told me that the C3000 will not reboot on its own after power is restored.  He recommended  a UPS.  Now I am confused.

Try it. Simply unplug it, wait a minute and plug it back in. Does it boot?
