NightHawk R9000 X10 Wireless Keeps turning off

[Nick7772011]

Hey everyone, I have a the R9000, and just recently since the latest firmware update have been have an issue, the wireless turns off and I cannot turn it back on unless i reset router to defaults then reconfigure, then its good for a random period of time, sometimes day then have to do this all over again.  Any help would be greatly apprciated since Netgear is a greedy company and just wants money to support something they should already be supporting...

Thank you.

Have you tried simply downgrading back a version?

Maybe the update broke something.

Thanks for the replay, sorry forgot to put that in my original post. I did downgrade and had the same issue, then upgraded and put it back to new firmware.

How old is it? 

when you reset, if you leave it with the default settings, does it still shut down? 

[Nick7772011]

1 year 8 months old. Yes does the same thing. I just did it again last night and it is good for now, but sometimes it happens days later or hours later.

I'm just curious if the defaults cause it as well (even leave the ssid as the defaults)

[Nick7772011]

Yes i tried defaults and it did the same thing after a couple of hours.

when the wifi dies, is it hot? 

maybe its over heating and thats causing the wifi to shut down

[Nick7772011]

Not that hot, i did check this as well... its warm but nothing abnormal.
