AC2300 R7000P Nighthawk auto-updates f/w?
Does the AC2300 R7000P Nighthawk router auto-updates f/w?
How long does Netgear commit to providing updates?
Out of the box auto update of firmware is on.
Not sure about how long, but the r7000 has been out for several years now and still getting firmware updates.. Suspect you will want a new shinny router before Netgear stops doing updates.

Thank you very much for the great news, Bill!
Earlier versions of the R7000P, which is a younger model than the R7000, lacked auto-update. This came in with later firmware.
Many people turn off auto-update on the grounds that they like to control their own devices.
