R7000 keeps turning on and turning off

I can't even use my inter for 1s. My stupid R7000 just keeps on and off again and again with no stop! BTW there's a click sound when it turning on and off.
  • Sounds like power adapter problem. Make sure it is plugged in firmly on router. Try another wall outlet too. If still doing it, then you gotta try another adapter. Also make sure the on/off switch on the router is working right (it is known to go bad). Just  gently jiggle it around to see if it makes things worse or better.

  • It works after I plug it to another wall outlet. Thank you so much!
