R6300v2 and Facebook Wi-Fi

I am trying to achieve the same thing. Facebook wifi on NETGEAR Router R6300v2. I have the latest firmware V1.0.4.6_10.0.76. And when I go to the advanced tab, there is no facebook tab.  I have told my customer that this is the router to do the job and now I have let them down.

 

Do they support Facebook anymore or not ?  Any info you have is much appreciated

  • Hi JorgeUrbina,

     

    1. Please try updating to a much later version (1.4.0.8) of the firmware.

    2. The Facebook WiFi option is under Advanced > Advanced Setup.

    3. Please provide a screenshot if possible.

        Hey Dexter,

        I have a netgear r6300v2 with firmware V1.0.4.8_10.0.77 and when I set up the facebook wifi it allows me to connect and surf the internet but it doesnt require me to check into my selected facebook page. How do I fix this?
