XR500 Firmware Update With V2 ping assist

Hi 

I have seen on the Netduma forum they have released 1.3 milestone on the R1 which has ping assist V2 and many more new features and wondering when it is getting released on the XR500. as ive had this router since day 1 in the UK. Will we be getting this update this month? 

 

kind regards john

  • Netduma staff here - cannot make any promises or commitments on NETGEAR's behalf, but I can say NETGEAR are working very hard with us to get new firmware releases out for you guys. They will announce more when they can.

      Netgear should be even getting the updates for the routers first or personally i think Netduma and Netgear should release every update at the same time.

        the duma OS was first on the XR500! and took another 6 months to hit the R1. and now the R1 has the latest V2 update but not the XR500. so now ive bought the R1
