I'm having to constantly turn mine on and off to reset.  Connections to the house have been checked by the provider and are GTG.  My router/modem is a netgear 7550 which upon research has hx of problems.  Mine is at least 3 yrs old.  I was hoping someone could suggests something that is a newer improved version at a decent price.  My use consists of hanging out here and several other forums so I'm not gaming or any of that stuff.  Thanks.

Always, ALWAYS, get the one with the most lights and alarms.  I mean it must be better right?  





And tagged cause I have a crummy Netgear router from Cox that requires a reset about every 3-4 days and it bugs me.  Oh, the router is i a closet so I have to get my fat ass out of this comfy chair to do it.

3-4 day huh.  Mines in the last few weeks has been as worse as several times an hour.  Hopefully there are some experts here.

Cable modem?  

Motorola Surfboard.

Get the modem you need (router or bridge, integrated wifi or not, 4 channel or 8 channel)
