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...
When I do a status update on Dynamic DNS I get this:
something.mynetgear.com updated successfully at 08:00 AM, 01/01/1970

Amateurs at best but probable less than that!

Thanks Netgear folks, not that bad after all!
