Why only US Region for Firmware 2.7.0.70?
RBR50 / RBS50 Firmware Version 2.7.0.70 is advertised for US Region Only. Does anyone know why?!? I am not in US and I successfully installed it. I found bizarre that an update to firmware 2.5....
I found one issue under Firmware 2.7.0.70 with RBS 40 FM 2.6.1.38, RBS40 will show the configuration synching status at the monitor interface. And the RBS40 cannot be connected or used in the whole WIFI system. So I have to downgrade the FM of RBR50 to 2.6.1.40 then the RBS40's issue fixed.
sounds like the RBS40 needs to be on same version of FW and NG will have to get the FW updated and release on the 40 series to help make it work with v2.7 versions of FW.

- I to would like to know why US only. The Circle bug in the release notes is major and effects me badly. Crashes the router eventually, well documented elsewhere. It is the DNS daemon.
I have installed the “US only” version in Australia and it works fine (and does indeed correct the crippling Circle bug) but why is this not made officially available to the rest of the world Netgear?Something to contact NG support about and see if they will tell you.
