R7000 - intermittently losing internet
I have had my Nighthawk R7000 for about 2 years with relatively no issues. The last 2 weeks I have been losing internet sporadically. If I catch it immediately the router will not allow me to log in (read I cannot get a login/pw prompt) for 2-3 minutes post event. At that poing I will have to reboot the router and things go back to normal.
Any ideas? I am expecting this thing is ready to brick at any moment.
TIA,
Joe

Re: R7000 - intermittently losing internet
the recent firmware is 1.0.11.123 for the R7000. I don't even see your version listed as a prior version.
If you do indeed have the R7000, try updating over a hardwired connection. Then do a factory reset and reinstall.
