What firmware version is on the router?
Did you update the firmware? If so, try factory resetting. During the install leave access control, qos, traffic monitoring, and parental controls all disabled

if that doesn't help, try installing version 1.0.4.28 of the firmware, then do a factory reset. Also disable auto-updates if it works. The newer version have netgear armor and there were random routers that didn't play nicely with armor.
