Your experience with Firmware 2.2.1.210 released as of 10/3/18
The other long thread on the new firmware is useless and has become a tech support thread. Please only post your experience after upgrading to the new firmware, good or bad. I'd like to see everyone'...

You might want to contact NG support about this...

I've tried all of this, I've even changed the ports and re-enabled VPN then downloaded the new profiles to use, same problem.
This only started happening after the latest forced updated, was fine on the previous version. It's really frustrating.

Probably, but I'm well outside of my 90 day "complimentary" support period, and I'm not paying them to fix their own issues. It's pretty clear there are a lot of people who are upset over these forced updates, and Netgear is doing nothing about it, never mind the people who are having issues because of these updates.

Guys, v.210 is bad firmware....This is sad that Netgear have not pull the firmware out yet. I fix my issue downgrading to v2.1.4.16 and disable Auto-Update for the time been.

You should make contact anyways, Possible issue with your hardware. This has happended as well. NG might replace it. It would be worth an RMA if you've never done an RMA. Try to find out.

I agree, version 2.2.1.210 is bad. I've had constant slow downs and drop outs with this firmware than any other. Everyday its like having a dialup connection with this router, now.
