I believe an issue with UPnP caused device names to be wiped that were added to Geo-Filter/QoS causing those errors. Firmware has been pulled while Netgear investigate. Factory reset will fix it.

Wow! So spend more time resetting this $300+ device and re-adding all security, setup MAC address filtering again, set static IPs, etc..
Amazing device:smileymad:

LOL, there is no MAC address filtering on this piece of crap, it dumped it routinely so the pulled it in the last firmware update. The arguments I had with tech support were straight out of a comedy.

There was no Mac address filtering in 2.2.1.10 either. In fact its the worse piece of so called security you can use. A strong WPA2 AES password is all you need Even hiding your SSID is not worth it as it can be seen by simple program like Netstumbler will show it. Mac addresses can be easily spoofed which is the problem and it can make some devices not connect properly (apple for a start suggest to turn it off), it is truly false security. Have a read of from this link.
