App won’t let me save device names
So for a while now my Netgear app won’t let me save custom names to devices. It used to save them fine and one day it stopped working. It’ll change the name then when I save and refresh the network m...
Has anyone "upgraded" from the R7000 to the R7000P? The faster speeds are nice but it seems like the R7000P has issues with missing features and functionality. I purchased the R7000P as a supplement so that I could have nearly identical routers at home and at work. Additionally, I liked the idea of being able to manage both routers from the same app. Needless to say, I am not impressed.
Where did all of the connected device icons go?! I like to keep my network organized and I don't really have that option with the R7000P because I am presented with only a handful of icons for my connected devices! Only three of these icons apply to my setup. This is not the case with the R7000 - it has all of the icons I need.
The R7000P is also lacking the Repeater mode. Not a huge deal, but a nice thing to have in a pinch.
All that said, I would like to see more options for customization with the R7000P considering its predecessor, the R7000, employs the same UI and is more fully-featured.
Both routers are running their latest firmware versions and I am running the latest version of Nighthawk. Thanks for reading!
