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? ...
WNDR3700v2 Vulnerability
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
I also have a wndr3700v2 with firmware 1.0.1.14 (latest reported) and windows 7 and 10.
On both Avast claimes my router is infected, although I have all the functions disabled. (wifi is not even enabled, but if it is I only allow acces based on MAC adress).
I know this router is EOL, but since its still widely used you would expect a company like Netgear to adress this problem at least to patch this.
Otherwise I must buy myself a new router, and then it certainly wont be any Netgear coming in the house ever again, or in my recommendations to other users that i help in my work
