Yep, I just blocked *.netgear.com from the router and satellite. And changed the NTP server to time.google.com as well.

tobiasjs I went with the Eero 6 Pro, an Amazon backed company. The setup was flawless, it took only a a few minutes to do and everything worked via the app. Signal strength is great, I have only needed to use 2 of the 3 devices the kit came with. All of my devices (5 and 2.4) reconnected without any issues, and moving from router mode to AP (bridge) mode was completely painless. A bit more expensive, but totally worth it imo. I bought mine at a local Best Buy.
