NightHawk R8000 firmware Attached device list
Just update to the latest and greatest firmware for the R8000, but now the Genie app fails to do much like update the network map and the device listing cannot be updated directly from the router. I have reset the router via both the hardware reset and via the web interface. Same problem. Ideas? A firmware miss? I've also noticed the Speedtest little animation is not there anymore either. Is this all in the name of the Disney stuff netgear loaded? Please return functionality to the router!
The problem still exists much like the issue I have been having with the router forwarding email logs to Hotmail. Gmail or Yahoo web mail. I am going to give up on resolving the issue. I think it is partly with the script that Netgear runs when trying to supply information to these web mail clients.

The router was returned to Netgear for replacement as there were other issues (ie: email logs not being able to be sent to email services such as Gmail, Hotmail or Yahoo with out the emails being bounced/unable to sign in.)

Yes the problem still exists - even after updating to the latest version of the Netgear Genie. The apps on my ipad and iphone don't read the correct device list as attached and updated directly via the web interface on the router.
