wndr3700v2 - NON-2015-0211

I have a vulnerability ID: NON-2015-0211 on my Netgear Router WNDR3700v2, so I need help.

I have noticed that there is already repair firmware door others routers, but sadly not for the WNDR3700v2? Why not?

I need a new firmware ASAP please.

    Hello,

    I have had some feedback from Netgear about the WNDR3700v2.

    This router was declared End of Line (EoL) some time ago, the last firmware released in December 2013, with the SOAP security issue reported 14 months later in 2015.

    While this may be a disappointing outcome for you, this approach to EoL products is in line with common business practice for home grade networking devices.

    There are steps you can take to ensure that the vulnerability has no impact as described here

    Hope that helps.

    Regards,

    Andy

    Hi Andy,

    Why a private message?

    In responds of that, yes it is disappointing.

    Looking for it - see http://www.netgear.com/landing/eol.aspx - it appears that all the wndr3700 versions have an end of live (EOL).  Even the latest version 5.

    I understand after reading the text of the url mentioned above, that the risk is limited.

    Anyway, thanks for the responds.

    Regards

    Peter

      Hello Andy,

       

      Nice such a fast responds:-)

      I got the warning Non-2015-0211 from my Avast scanner (new installation).

      Searching for that I found this message: WARNING Vulnerabil​ity ID: NON-2015-0​211 on my Netgear Router WNR2000v3

      My question is the same and there for related to that message.

      In respond of your message I have searched in the Admin of my router. This I found by USB-app. http://readyshare.routerlogin.net/shares for port 80 is activated. Its used for the printer in my homenetwork.

      VHTTPhttp://readyshare.routerlogin.net/shares80

      I noticed that 3700v4 en v5 has "No need to fix"

      Does this mean dat the earlier versions does not have "ReadySHARE"?

       

      Will you check  it?

      Peter

      Hi,

       

      Mine latest firmware is newer:  V1.0.1.14

      It does not matter. It changes nothing:-(

      So I can't understand why there is the question what firmware is installed....

      It looks if you can aspect help form the Community Team, but the answer was already given: No there will be NO UPDATE as the router is EOL

      The answers form the Community Team will be give in a private mail, so the negative solutions are not published in this blog. It is a way of handling.....

  • Retep56.

    The last version for WNDR4700 is 1.0.0.52
    If my model is EOL my router is still under warranty. Then i have to claim to receive newest model that should have a solution.
    Thanks for your info

      The discussion here was about the wndr3700v2, not the WNDR4700 :-)

      So a different version is logic

  • Yes is different Router. From Antivirus i got the message and gave this link NON-2015-0211 where the topic is the same, thats why i wrote here.

        Admir57590 I'm waiting for a response from our engineering department if there will be a firmware update on that model.

        For the meantime, make sure that you have updated the settings of your router according to the alerts from Avast.

        See this link for more info.

  • ElaineM

    Ok i will wait your answer. Regarding the alerts from Avast i already adjusted the settings on the router. After changing again i have those alerts. I believe that my router have been efected because few days ago i got a message from google.com that from my IP have attack the page and they disabled the page to open from my IP. I did forward all http coming to my router to an unused IP for the moment, but the only solution remain to update the firmware.

      Admir57590 Based from the response I got, there will be no firmware nor future updates to be released on WNDR4700.

      It's already considered EOL. The best recommendation is to get a new router.

  • ElaineM
    My router is still under warranty. Should i call the warranty department to send a new product as this product is consider as EOL?
