Best firmware for R7000p in 2021
i have been having some weird issues with the R7000p, after a couple of months it would radomly drop connection and dissconnect my streams, even if i had it set up at a access point it would even cause the main router to act weird and drop wifi connection but keep some lan connection, so im wondering if the firmware might be the problem, if anyone knows what the most stable firmware in 2021 is that would be great.

The version I usually recommend if users are having issues is the 1.3.0.20 version. Its the version prior to netgear armor.
But if yours worked fine with armor then I'd recommend the 1.3.2.124 version.
I'd also recommend factory resetting and reinstalling when changing firmwares on that router.
gotcha i never used netgear armor but i also bought the router after both those patches were released so ill try them both and see

I would investigate this before messing around with firmware.
All is fine here on R7000P-V1.3.2.134. (I haven't tried the latest.)

I don't know what "act weird" means, but investigating wifi channels might be useful.

Makes me wonder what else you have on your network.
