Network solutions is just the domain registrar, so Netgear just has the domain registered through them. The domain doesn't expire for almost a year which is where things get strange. I'm sick and not thinking straight, but that would lead me to believe that someone at Netgear would have to have intentionally removed the DNS records pointing at whatever DNS service which was resolving the A records. The IP it's pointing to now is a generic Network Solutions IP which is what leads me to believe there are no longer any DNS records defined. It really doesn't make sense since as far as I can gather, this would have to have been intentional. Also, looking at wayback machine, mynetgear.com used to redirect to my.netgear.com. I can't think of any reason they would remove that redirection even if they were shutting the DDNS service down.
