How will we know?
So the pinned post says (barring issues) this fix will roll out over the next 10 days. And that after that, if you still have problems... How will we know that we've supposedly received the fix?...

Fix finally applied here sometime today. Didn't seem to reboot the router. But have my admin back. Happy they were able to fix this without the reset.

So been about 7 days since the announcement of the fix rolling out. So far I've seen no difference and no sign that anything updated.
If there still a chance I don't want to do the reset. But, again, when's the cutoff? Is Netgear going to announce that everyone has access to the fix, and it should have applied if it's going to?
so the point of the slow rollout was to find other issues that might crop up. Maybe they did find something and so its delaying it. Or maybe its memorial day weekend and no one's in the office. Most places try not to do a firmware rollout on the weekend in case there are issues on general release.

Glad it's working. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
