Thinking my router was messing up, I ran over to Walmart last night and picked up an AC1600 Linksys. I thought it would be pretty cool to control it from a phone app. It would be.. but..
This router was impossible to set up. It kept asking me to reset my modem, which I do not have. The instructions were clearly meant for someone on DSL with a modem. How old is that?? I could not get thru setup on a fiber connection. Anyway, WM took it back, no problem. Believe those Amazon reviews.
I signed up with a new ISP today, just took a couple hours to reconfigure on their end. Old router seems fine. I'll leave it on the timer to shut down for 5 minutes each day.
