Need to know capabilities of Modem/WiFi Routers
Does NETGEAR have modem/wifi router which can also act as a repeater?
- Dec 16, 2015It's not entirely unique but it's one of the few Netgear routers that the open source development community has opted to work on. There is work ongoing with the R8000, but it's not as far along. The R7000 has been out long enough that 3rd party firmware is reasonably stable.
Disclaimer: There is always some risk involved with installing 3rd party firmware, including the risk of bricking your router and voiding of warranty. Follow the installation instructions closely.
