Some needed improvements to the community forum software!

How many times are we trying to describe a problem, and each step might show a screen-grab image?

Note you can put in multiple in-line pictures (which is actually better than trying to show the steps with multiple 

attachments). But there are other situations where multiple attachments would be useful.

The software permits upload of JPG files, but does not permit the upload of JPEG files. REALLY?

I agree that it should do that.  Note you can use the camera tool to post a jpeg in-line, but the attachment tool fails.

While we are on the topic, it should also allow upload and rendering of HEIC still image files.  This is the native format with iOS.

screen recordings can be particularly helpful.

This would be good. Though I get why Netgear might prefer these to be in cloud storage (with URLs pointing to them), it would be ideal if you could post short screen recordings (couple of minutes).

Have you ever tried going to a thread to read through the thread, and found how difficult it is?

This is really awkward, and should be cleaned up.  Plus it is often impossible to mark a discussion thread as read (even if you carefully click on each post).   

That makes it really hard for me to follow up:

1. too hard to identify threads with posts I haven't read.
2. too easy to miss the new posts in the thread

It seems I have to multi-factor authenticate on my devices very frequently,

I'm not seeing that - though I am normally using a windows PC, and not my phone or tablet.
