Reactivate USB Port on RBR50?
One of my "go to" diagnosis tools is to capture LAN/WAN traffic and analyze it with Wireshark. Since system memory is so small, I usually capture LAN/WAN packets to a USB stick that is formatted ext...
FWIW I'm getting the same error on 2.7.2.104. It is making troubleshooting my other issues much... more... difficult.
Much more difficult than I hoped it would be.
Saving to System Memory seems erratic ie. log capture stops at random times.
It is demoralizing that Netgear tinkered with something that was working. I understand that the original Orbi router was the only one with a USB port and the replacement model has none. So, "what's the big deal? No current Orbi's have USB ports. That code is useless."
So, I can debug a problem using LAN/WAN capture to USB, but not with the current firmware. What good is it to document how a previous firmware release functioned?
- Maybe.....the OP finds trying all possible f/w versions is a TOTAL waste of time, had the NG f/w developers documented such changes, from the start.
Just my opinion
