We're almost two weeks out .... and the team locked in a closet hasn't produced anything.

WTH is going on over there?

Maybe they think the issue will be forgot about after time goes by. But, I for one am checking the forums daily. $300 for something that does not function as advertised (old firmware is missing feature sets) is not good business. Can anyone say class action lawsuit??

some of you have way more patience than I do LOL FYI while in poor taste I'm guessing my new Amplifi has been rock freaking solid in AP mode with all 3 of my main cubes on Eth Backhaul :)

I have a little sliver of good news everyone.
A netgear employee messaged me yesterday (Don't want to call out his name so I don't get him in trouble or anything) but he told me that they are "planning a full public release in the next week or so."
At this point, the firmware should be rolled out to everyone by April (hopefully.)
Cross those fingers!
