Model: Archer CR700  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: v1.1.0 Build 20170314 Rel542320

Hello, I am using an Archer Cr700 and it keeps shutting off. It is physically shutting off and not powering back on unless I pull the power cable, turn off the modem by the button that I press then I put the power cable back in. It will power back on if I turn it off and on again. I measured the power supply with a multimeter and its at a perfect 12v so it is not that. The power supply is not hot. This is happening multiple times per day. What is causing this?

 

The hardware version is v1.1.0


I purchased this modem/router to save money on modem rental from my cable company however now I feel like I am not saving any money because its not working properly.

If the power supply is measuring normal, try a completely different outlet. Sounds weird, but this has worked for some.

@Tony 

Thanks for the response, I spent $189 on this router/modem combo when I bought it and I can't afford to replace it at the moment. I also can't afford to be without internet for obvious reasons. I don't think its the outlet though. I don't keep the modem in a closed up place, its in the open air sitting on my desk.

 

I tried the different outlet and a hard reset by pressing the reset with a paperclip. It still shuts off. I am talking to support on the phone. I also used the digital multimeter on my outlet and got a normal reading. There is nothing wrong with my outlets.

Hi mate, any luck solve that problem? I have Archer VR600 and I was using it since last year without a problem. Suddenly, today it went off and needs to replug and restart but when it will ready, it shuts itself off again...
