Archer A7 - Orange Internet Light "Poor Network"
Hey,
I recently got RCN cable in NYC and am using a Netgear CM1000 modem connected to an Archer A7 Router.
I have had problems with the Internet signal dropping out on the router. (This has happened about 4 times in the last week) and has cost me joining meetings etc while working from home so it has been quite frustrating.
Everything would seem to be working fine and then suddenly the light goes orange and logging into the router I see "Poor Network"
If I plug the ethernet cable from the modem directly into my computer the internet instantly works again so there seems to be a problem with the router.
Modem > Archer 7 > Ethernet to Macbook = No internet
Modem > Ethernet to Macbook = Internet working
After a few reboots of the router and modem it seems to be working again.
I have already updated the DNS to google (which I read on another thread) but the issue still seems to happen.
