R7000 wifi is not working correctly?
Hello, Recently I have changing my router's firmware from Tomato to the original netgera firmware since I did not need that Tomato stuff. I beleive I have done so correctly since I followed a video showing me so one-for-one. I did get the original firmware back with Netgear Genie being compatable with it. However, the wifi is a problem, along with the LAN connection. The wifi 5g and 2g networks show up correctly as an acess points, and I can easily get onto them, but they can not browse the internet at all! It simply loads a page forever, same thing for mobile applications! I've done factory resets two times, turned it off and unplugged it, but it's still the same thing. The Wifi shows up correctly with the correct information, but still it does not want to browse the internet corretly. There is also a NETGEAR80-arlo thing that came on, I'm curious as to what that is and how to disable it? thanks in advance.

N300 C3000 Wifi Stops Working / Connecting
Hi my Cable Modem / Router N300 C-3000 has a really annoying issue where after about 10 mins it stops communicating with all my devices. I called the cable company who said my signal was great (TWC) and tried setting fixed channel and factory resetting. Neither fixed it, when I run a speed test the download speed via wifi fluctuates from a few MBS to like 45 and the upload stays constant. After 10 minutes I can't connect at all unless I unplug and replug the router in I think the firmware is broken TWC said they cant downgrade it and its the latest version.
