      As far as I am aware, once stock has sold out it will no longer be available to purchase.

        because the xr700 made the xr1000 rubbish. and netgear couldnt have that

         

        In my mind the xr700 should be the xr1000 but for the build price netgear wanted it wasnt done. the XR700 is on the edge business . I also think the xr700 has caused a head ach for Netgear because of the hardware in it and thats why the xr700 Still has no 3.0.

         

        Come on Fraser thats why Netgear have dropped it and now the xr500 / XR1000 are the routers looks nice on paper aswell why pick xr700 as your flagship XR1000 looks better nice round number

    NG still develops for it as well. 

    Can find XR700 from online retailors still.

    I am also not sure what the link you have posted has to do with anything as the XR700 is not listed under the products. the only ref to the XR700 is

     

    Anti - buffer bloat” (ABB) creates an express lane for gaming traffic. Using ABB and the XR700’s quad. These features combined

     

    Only cause NG website people are sloppy and havnt removed the refernce to to as the router picture is the XR500

      Interesting, the XR450 and XR700 were seen on that page. Now both are missing. I guess someone is paying attention to this thread.
