Trek PR2000 DHCP-problems, keeps dropping connections, maybe workaround
Hi! Some days ago I bought the new Netgear Trek PR2000 mobile wireless router. Purpose was to have an AP for all my devices while traveling and being able to connect them to a hotspot or hotel wifi...
hksteve I would like to inform you that the fix is now available in our download page.
Feel free to update your firmware and provide feedback.
Thanks!

Same here, no disconnects in Hot Spot mode. Though speeds are not good, however I'm aware it's a beta... Also noticed port 23 is open (Could be in debug mode? - again beta).
I concer, Netgear should link this as an open beta it you need Hot Spot mode and who doesn't when traveling.
So Telnet is open. Not the best idea.
Did you check, that Telnet was closed in the regular Firmware?
Appears to be open only on the LAN side, not getting a telnet handshake on the WAN side. In fact, it's responding to my scans as a DDos. Tried connecting with Juice on the inside buts it's not responding to my telnet request.
Never tested with .14 which the unit was shipped with...Though I did put the regular .14 in Debug mode, which should reset as soon as the unit was unpowered...Did NOT put the beta in debug mode.
Here's the results on my port scan on the LAN side...
Open Ports: 23, 53, 80, 20005, 33344, 5000, 7777, 8443 (Have remote admin on), 56688...
Nothing returning on the WAN side...
Port 23 is open on the LAN side designed for our telnetable tool.
Glad to hear that the firmware helped solved your concerns.
Indeed it has, and thank you again Elaine for the help...
To those having the reboot issue with the PR2000 Trek, should contact support ASAP and get that Beta .15 firmware! Mine has been running flawless all weekend, aside from a little performance tuning needed, offers a really good compromise with size. Those who expect dual core AC performance don't fully understand what compromise means even though everything in our lives is a compromise. They had a saying when it came to engineering; Speed, Cost, Quality - Pick two...
Peace out...
