Any piece of machinery can experience a glitch. It\u2019s the same with one of the most important pieces of hardware we have in our home, our router. There\u2019s a glitch where the router keeps rebooting after some time of use.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This is one of the most commonly reported issues with Netgear routers. When we buy it, we use it without interruption for some time, and all of a sudden the Netgear router keeps rebooting. There are a few ways we can fix this, but let\u2019s first see why it happens.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Automatic Hardware Restart<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The reason any hardware reboots automatically is the failsafe mechanism. Imagine driving a newer vehicle with a manual shift. If you put it into 3rd gear instead of 1st when starting the drive, it\u2019s going to turn off automatically.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

You put it back into 1st gear, and as soon as you release the clutch, the vehicle turns on again. It\u2019s the same with newer hardware if there\u2019s an interruption in the power supply, or something is wrong with the cables. It automatically restarts trying to fix it.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This happens because the most frequent fix of any hardware-related problem is a restart. A restart clears our device\u2019s RAM (Random Access Memory)<\/a>. However, frequent reboots might be a bigger problem.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Netgear Rebooting Reasons<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Users have reported that the R7000<\/strong> and R6700<\/strong> Netgear router keeps rebooting. The main reason these two keep rebooting is firmware-related<\/a>. However, there are other reasons it might be rebooting. Let\u2019s see the most likely ones:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
