Are you running Beta 1.12.0.12? Are you saying it does NOT fix drops?

All products have issues... things that need adjustment. But at their core.... they should be able to fit their main function. Please dont make the customer feel bad for being disappointed. The customer has lived up to his end with cash, trust of the NetGear brand, and patients.
All anyone is looking for are options, action, and a promise to make it right. All companies deal with issues. The big ones own-up and surpass expections. Customers buy products through out a life-time. The customer loyality should be more important than any one product or purchase.
