Hi can anybody help I have tried Netgear support and they can’t fix my issue, I have just taken out my BT Home Hub2 router and replaced with a Netgear Nighthawk RS300 Firmware Version V1.0.1.60, I have FFTP and have never had any issues with my BT Router, I changed because I needed wi-fi6, so my problem is every day around about 08:30 my both my laptops (windows11) loses the internet, wi-fi says it’s connected but I cant connect to my email or web browser, however all other Wi-Fi devices work, Firesticks, smart TV,s cell phones, printer etc, I have to reboot the router to get the laptop back up, this is doing my head in please help.

Re: Netgear Nighthawk RS300
What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6A STP is recommended.
Is Protection Engine enabled on the RS routers web page? Under Advanced Tab/Administration/Security. If so, disable this feature, apply the change and reboot the router.

Re: Netgear Nighthawk RS300
Glad you got it working. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
