EX7000 + Firmware Version 1.0.1.78 == crash
Echoing what others on the forum have said, I have an EX7000, and after upgrading to firmware Version 1.0.1.78, it appears to work for a few minutes but then seems to crash/reboot. This behavior is ...
My EX7000 crashes after a few days. I am using my EX7000 as an access point rather than as an extender.
Hardware Version EX7000
Firmware Version V1.0.1.78_1.0.140
Have you tried downgrading the firmware to 1.0.0.66
Is this ever going to get fixed?
Hello,
I tried again today t update the firmware and the problem isn't fixed. Almost sure that the problem of connection or stability can come from the fact after the update the virtual MAC adress of 2.4 and 5Gb are strictly the same.
As they are identical, the router isn't able to adress correctly the right network and connections are impossible or difficult.
I opened a ticket during my guarantee and never been contacted about it from technical service. I saw that other peolple tried without success. A large part of us signaled, highlighted the issue but nothing change since several months.
Netgear replaced my EX6200 bought in July because they have a firmware issue They provides a EX7000 and now they reproduce the issue on it. I have some doubt about their capacities to solve but I'm sure they are able to duplicate the problem.
Several years I use their products but maybe it's timeto go away...
