  • Have you tried a hard reset, and then manually entering your settings by hand? I would download the latest firmware again, reflash then hard reset via the hole on the back, not the gui then enter your settings without using a backup. Is there any client on your LAN that pushes the router into the reboot cycle in particualr or is it randowm? Make sure not to set HT160 as that can cause issues and use 20/40mhz coexsistance.  Contact Netgear if the router is still in warranty and resetting firmware does not help, also check the power source as that could be an issue too possibly.
