Yeah this is absolutely unbelievable. Just purchased without knowing this too. I will either be returning or flashing another firmware. Likely returning, and I will never buy a netgear product again that is certain. Or reccomend to anyone else. Absolute BS. If you don't want it on by default for some reason so be it. To not make it an option to turn on. ABSOLUTELY ABSURD! Netgear literally SUCKS!
