I can't believe that there are still issues outstanding with this router. I will never buy another Netgear product. I rolled back my firmware to a version that works and have been watching the progress of other folks with issues. There hasn't been much, but a lot of folks have struggled.
It's been over a year since the DNS issues appeared and Netgear has not fixed a problem they have caused and on top of it all make you pay for help for a problem they caused. Did I read that support is ending for this router? Ending, you've got to be kidding. I wrote to an officer of this company inquiring why the lack of support for this router when folks were having problems. You know what I got back????? Nothing. What a surprise. This was just an awful experience with a company of this longevity and a company of this size...just disgraceful.

I agree!!!
I purchased the R8000 refurbished fully aware the support expired long ago however I did not expect the firmware to be so riddled with bugs.
