  • What hardware are we talking about here?

     

    What firmware version do you have on the device?

    A number is more useful than "the latest". (It may not be by the time people read this.) There can also be newer versions, or "hot fixes", that do not show up if you check for new firmware in the browser interface.

     

    Parental controls is among features that depend on what firmware you run.

      • Yes, but what is the hardware?

         

        Sorry, but life is too short to chase through all the Netgear hardware to find which firmware versions site on which devices.

         

        Hint, fill on the bit on all messages that says:

         

        Model (Recommended - Helps the community give the best answers)
