Firmware Version 1.5.0.12 issues/fixes
New firmware released on Feb 22, 2017. Starting this thread so people can chime in. And hopefully Netgear moderators read our feedback. I'll start: Update process went smoothly. Tha...
So according to the firmware download page:
New Features and Enhancements:
- Supports VLAN and bridging on the Orbi router.
- Supports IGMP proxy.
- Allows users to enable or disable the “Allow guests to see each other and access my local network” feature in AP mode.
There is no further explanation to be found anywhere. Can somebody explain what the first two points mean and where to configure them?
I looked around the GUI everywhere and can't find setting for an IGMP proxy nor VLAN settings anywhere. I am particular confused by "and bridging on the Orbi router". Wasn't the Orbi router always able to be bridged by being put into "AP Mode".
Really extemly confusing if no further information is provided. Just a few sentences would do. Please Netgear (moderators)?
