I bought an e4200 about 2 months ago. It worked perfectly for 3 weeks. Then all of the sudden, the 5ghz connection started dropping. Then it's disappeared completely and it would not show up in a network search. Then the 2.4 ghz started going crazy. I reset it completely, that didn't work. I let it sit for half a day, nothing.*
I sent it back to newegg and got a replacement.*
When the 2nd one came in, it worked fine until the next day. 5ghz cut out. I called linksys support and they were no *help. I reflashed to 1001 firmware and it mysteriously came back to normal. It was working perfect until today. 3 weeks later.*
5ghz went out, and never came back. I reflashed 1001, nothing. Reset, nothing. Flashed the new 1002 firmware, nothing. 2.4ghz still kind of works, but the speed is barely 5mbps.*
I'm at a freaking loss right now. This was the best performing router I have tried, of all the top models available right now. The only one I haven't tried is the netgear wndr4000, and that model is essentially the same as the e4200.*
Newegg is giving me a store credit. And I don't know what to do. Do I try a 3rd one??
I need major suggestions please!
