The "Enable Smart Parental Controls on Your Router" nag ad pops up EVERY time I login to my router.
Ever since I applied the V1.0.4.98_10.0.71 firmware update, I am presented with a ""Enable Smart Parental Controls on Your Router" pop-up every time I login. There is no checkbox to disable this ...
Well with the new firmware they have made it worse.
Absolute disdain for their customers.
ADVERT Banner at the top.
One at the bottom
Now one on the left too!

Netgear does not care what you want or think, They sell you a prodcut with a 1 year warranty but will only care to even help you for 90 days after that you have to pay them another $80 to even talk to them, They want you to come to the forums to fix the issues that you have among yourselves instead of giving tech support.
Netgear has become a money hungry corporation that does not care about its users.
Unstable 5G on ruters, constant reboots, Nag screens to enable features with no opt out option.
They sell you junk and expect you to figure it out
90 days tech on a 1 year warranty then demand 1/4 of the router value to help you. Since when did this become acceptable
I downgraded my firmware just to get rid of this. I don't want my router constantly phoning home to netgear to download ads that I don't want.
Totally unacceptable. I'm a lifelong Netgear user. Nearly all of my networking products are Netgear branded. If future firmware versions on my router's administration page contain banners to download Circle, the Genie App, use Armor, or whatever else, this will be my last Netgear purchase.
