For me Netgear rush this firmware to support the Orbi Voice... they didn’t test completely. My major problem is they have not pulled the firmware out and keep advertising it on the site. Agree that Auto Update must be an option...
Regarding the firmware, they are opening a door for a major problem, how many people have been affected...specially me that work from home and need access to support my company IT Environment in a 24/7 ... How many hours lost and family issues because kids need to finish work for school and college... and the unit keep dropping the ISP, slow Ethernet connection, etc...
I have not seen any official respond from Netgear or any official on this forum that have taken ownership of this complains. Support is bad, 90 days only, I always like Netgear equipment, I use it on my network at home, but after this, will be hard to recommend this to anyone. They must be proactive on issues...
