FURRYe38, thank you for the reply. Based on your previous posts, you have good insight and try to help persons. I appreciate that.

Furry I totally agree. My justification for making said statement was not to influence NG or its engineer's seeming lethargy on implementing promised improvements. I should have been more clear. However, my intention was 1) to merely state that the company has not fulfilled its pledge to add said functionality and 2) inform other purchasers / potential purchasers of limitations.
"In mean time, live with the product or find something else that works for you."
That is what i've already done with the electrical timers. Happy with Orbi performance, little disapponted with current features.
Cheers.

I think we all can agree that theres features that need improvement. As time goes one, hopefully NG will make those changes and will add more features to the system. I believe if people keep post there in the idea forum and contacting NG and bugging them about it, may see some results. Only time will tell. Again, the cycle only last for a while, then of course, NG may introduce new HW which may have these changes and which older HW may not get. Just letting you know.
