R6700 Losing ability to connect at 2.4Ghz
I have an R6700 with the latest firmware (.36) on it. What has started happening since the last update is I will notice that all 2.4Ghz connections will drop off the connection list on the router. Th...
Have not had a reoccurrence of the issue since the hot fix. Looks like it resolved the issue.
I also turned off auto-select on the channel number for the 2.4 GHz band. Maybe that had something to do with it.

Same issue as a lot of R7000 owners have. 2.4GHz Wi-Fi devices are loosing their connection. Netgear can't fix it. The newest firmware are ruining the routers. Even a downgrade and reset is not fixing the problem. They tried to fix it with 2 beta firmwares but without success. Just buy another brand and forget Netgear.
Seems that they are ignoring requests here, on Facebook, and on Twitter.
I'm almost ready to flash with DD-WRT. I'll avoid Netgear in the future, for sure.
