Alarming DNS requests every 10 minutes
Since my previous extender was not working properly
I decided to buy a new one (AC750 WiFi Range Extender (EX3110)), trusting again NETGEAR (but now I am not sure I was right to trust them/you).
This one seems to work fine, but it makes a DNS query for "www.netgear.com" (exactly) every 10 minutes:
Do you know why it is doing that and how I can stop this alarming behaviour?
(after that request I guess that it will transfer some data to "www.netgear.com")
Thanks
