I spoke to Netgear. They are aware of the issue. They recommend a factory reset which I do NOT want to do. A software update is in the works. Emergency red flag priority ticket has been open and escalated. Netgear initiated an automatic software update all across the board. This caused the issue. Netgear why didn't you all tested in the lab prior to deploying the software?? Netgear/Engineering team if you are reading this PLEASE have a toggle button option (on/off) on the GUI so that those that don't want the update can turn it off. Let's get the ball rolling and fix this ASAP!!
