Some time ago I had an old NETGEAR router and I just upgraded to a brand new Nighthawk X6S (AC 3000). Netgear router provided WiFi calling facility via Verizon. But after upgrading, it does not allow Wifi calling facility, even the internet is connected. Any ideas would be great

I have a Netgear N-series of router, which I have been using for quite some time. My ISP provided me with a login details to get access to my router settings page, which I never really used. But recently, when I was having issues with my router, I could not login to my Netgear router. Can anyone tell me why this happened and how can I login to my router?

I got an Inspiron 5567 Laptop with Windows 10 x64 for Christmas. Other than my mobile phones, it is the first 5GHz device on my LAN Since then my Netgear R7000 router crashes daily. It had previously run, without crash, for more than a year. There was no problem when I kept the Laptop off for a week. At this point I am considering using Tomato Router firmware, which I used quite successfully on my old router, but if that would still leave open questions about the laptop. Tomato may allow me to log troubleshooting information that I can't get from the existing firmware. SYMPTOMS: 1. After the crash, using wired or Wifi devices, I cannot login into the router at 192.168.1.1 (no response). I can Ping it. 2. I CAN still connect between all Wired/Wifi devices on my LAN. 3. I CANNOT connect to the Internet using multiple browsers. 4. I CAN connect to the ATT Modem behind the router with a browser. 5. I CAN also connect to the Internet, with a browser, if I use VPN on an individual PC. 6. Powering the router off/on resolves the problem. Troubleshooting Actions 1. I have factory reset the router and also tested a new Netgear Router. 2. I have tried older and the newest firmware on the router. 3. Disabling Dropbox on the laptop "appeared" to fix the problem for a few days. (Using Wireshark, I noted that the laptop had, at minimum, four DB-LSP-DISC "DropBox discovery protocol" retries) All other PCs on my LAN have no retries. 4. Verified no duplicate IP addresses on my LAN. (Most all IPs are fixed, - reserved IPs by MAC address in router settings) 5. Worked with DELL to make sure the laptop has the latest drivers, etc. 6. Enable/Disable router's WPS Pin. 7. Enable/Disable 5GHz WiFi on router.

Hello, I have bought a Netgear router from eBay recently, the model number of the device is N300. I want to set it up with my Windows computer whose configuration is Windows 7 OS Comcast modem 3GB Ram Intel Pentium 4 processor 2.4 GHz with 6 cores. I did not get the software CD along with the router, so what am I supposed to make it work? I tried connecting it directly to the modem but apart from blinking of lights nothing happened. Can anyone tell me what the issue is and how can I set it up?

Model: R7900|Nighthawk X6 AC3000 Tri-Band WiFi Router Hi, hoping to get some ideas on my router. This has been a bit of a process with the troubleshooting I've gone through, but I'll try to lay it out. I recently moved and switched my ISP, and tried switching my router to AP mode since the new modem has its own router. I noticed while I was working on this that the router seemed to be restarting somewhat frequently, maybe once every few minutes. This might have more to do with me attempting to connect and use devices with about that frequency, because (looking at it now) it doesn't restart that often.... but there's a good chance it will restart the moment I try to use a device connected to it wirelessly with anything remotely intensive. Anyway, steps I've taken: -reverted to factory default settings -upgraded to latest firmware -reverted to factory default settings again -changed the cable between the modem and the router -attempted to "30-30-30" reset it (to try and downgrade firmware), but that didn't seem to do anything... so instead I downloaded an earlier release of firmware and loaded it manually. -re-upgraded firmware (after much struggle... the prior firmware version seemed to like to make the router restart every 30 seconds, so I had to get into settings real quick to manually upload firmware, often non-responsive, thought it was bricked...) -reverted to factory default settings again -disabled “Wireless Router Radio 2" (attempting to reduce power, if that makes sense) -lowered 5ghz-1 to the "up to 600 mbps mode" (attempting to reduce power, if that makes sense) -switched the radio 2 and re-upped the mbps modes to max, so now I'm basically back at ground 0 It’s plugged into the ethernet port of a ZyXEL C1100Z from CenturyLink. Like said before, it's been.... decent today, restarted on me once in the morning and again just a few minutes ago. It seems that use triggers it, and it seems to happen more often right when a device connects to it (like when I turn my laptop on). If it doesn’t happen right away, after a device connects, it might act well for a while before it finally turns off.
