Did you get anywhere? (Forgive me if I don't re-read all of the past 168 messages..)Six months is too long to wait. When I'd have to click on a website 6 times before it would load without a DNS error and tech support told me it wasn't their problem, it was my ISP, I went out and bought a new router, not a Netgear.
So, your experience with this router, the firmware update. that problem, and possible solutions, isn't based on enough recent experience to help anyone else seeking solutions.
The world has moved on since your first message.
I add this response simply to alert other people who turn up here that they might like to pay attention to the whole conversation, not just something from ancient history. Nothing wrong with reminders, but they belong in context.

I've certainly moved on, but people should be aware that Netgear took no responsibility for rendering not just my router but many others useless. They apparently still haven't fixed the issue. Rolling back to a previous version of software is not a fix, especially if it doesn't work.
But I heard your message, however diplomatically you stated it, loud and clear.
I think I need to stop receiving notifications for this thread.
