Having the same issue with wifi disconnects. I've really enjoyed this router until now. In the same boat as many people where I'm working from home. Moved the router so I'm direct connected to my work computer at the moment so the disconnects don't kill me in the middle of a call. Hoping they release a new firmware update soon. Keep getting an error with the download of the old .64 firmware version that the file is corrupt.

try download the .64 fw again, or use another browser to download. Also, as a beta tester of the beta firmware, i've provided all my feedback to the engineers and now it's up to them to release an udpated firmware. current beta i'm on has been solid for over a week.

After many days of chat on FB messenger, the L2 support person gave me call and noted down all the issues. The support person was helpful. Atlast after 15 mins of conversation, agreed to provide the Beta Firmware link after signing of NDA.
Just updated the firmware and enabled logs capture. Will monitor the performance in the next few days, fingers crossed.

... and why wouldn't Netgear offer the beta firmware to anyone who is willing to sign the NDA? There is no downside for them and they might actually get real world input as opposed to leaving the rest of us in the dark... and angry.

True that.
Maybe they want to try the beta with a closed set of users rather than opening it up to the world.
