Hi All,

 

I apologies for the long wait. When a new XAV5601 firmware is available, a firmware upgrade tool will be posted on the NETGEAR website.

    Thanks for your update

    What a pity that Netgear has not done anything...maybe some others, as I did, have moved to another brand, ie Devolo

    My couple of adapters are well stored...waiting for a sign of good will from Netgear to come back to life

    It downloads firmware for the 5501?

     

    cheers
