Feedback for R7000 New firmware 1.0.9.18
Hi All,
Please post here for any update/issue related to the latest firmware 1.0.9.18.
You should review this and maybe revert back to this recommended version of FW:

Since I've flashed Tomato a few weeks ago I've forgotten that I have a router- it's working perfectly getting dust because i do not touch it at all :-)...
Parental control works perfectly, 0 drops, strong signal - save your time and do a similar thing!
Did the update about 2 hours ago. Worked immediately. Printer back up and connected. Smart home back up and communicating. Someone asked what it looks like when you are not connected. Wireless icon shows full bars, a check in Genie tells you everything looks good. Yet, nothing is communicating. When I did this upgrade, I did not factory reset. I was about to when I realized the new FW was released. But, I have had this working in the past, but then devices start falling off. I, like so many others, have no time for this. Especially if you have a business that depends on this connection. If they start to fall off again, I will have to make a decision...deal with tech support phone calls and nonsense, or go out and get another router.
Please keep thread clean from "I am going to Linksys and such"
Personally, I left Linksys and they were, for my last 2 routers much more pain in the ass than Netgear. Since they were sold to Belkin, the quality and support dropped completely.
Just give details and let's wait Netgear fixes it
Just an update. Been running about 12 hours now. Still good connection with all devices. I will continue to work all devices to see if they fail. I am currently monitoring all devices connected to the 2.4 side. I am on FW .18.
