Thanks

Hi Dennis,
Any news from your side? Any solution from Netgear? I have here a paper weight device waiting for any kind of solution. I had to buy a cheaper TP-Link Deco Mesh, that is working fine (and 100% stable) since then. But I'm still waiting for a solution.

No clear solution so far.
Router and satellite were reset and debug mode is turned on to track down the system -- as I had some issues (next morning the internet was gone - red light) and I had to reboot I still need to send some additional information out.
The weekend gave me a stable system - if it is really another round of firmware upload and reset I would be very surprised but we'll see if the first debug report will help.
Best.

I just received my new replacement that failed. Had the red light on the front. Per Netgear they finally sent me a new one after 6 weeks. In the mean time I resurrected my old Linksys EA4500 with an OpenWRT firmware install. Quite easy. In the meantime I purchased another Linksys EA4500 for $11 on ebay and installed OpenWRT on it and it has been working fine as my sateliite.
No thanks for Netgear but this cheap solution with these old Linksys EA4500 and OpenWRT are working quite well. No wifi 6, but I don't have any wifi 6 devices yet.
Just another solution for y'all to think about.
