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!
UPDATE:
Discovered that the SAMBA server still works in programs that support it. Suspect Genie app is not using DLNA but SAMBA to read the files.
Since Netgear replaced my router I have had zero disconnects. I'm running the .18 firmware. This tells me that either Netgear put out defective units (because the production number I received is later than the one that was resetting) or some of the firmware that put out in the past messed up the units somehow (because the only firmware I have upgraded to since receiving the router is .18). So while my unit is staying stable running the latest firmware as everyone else others are reporting constant resets. Something is not right with that....
Volstate. That's great that you are up and running. Just curious, have you checked your speed? Some are reporting other problems than just connection. One of which is half or a third of what the speed should be. Thanks.
How are people testing speed? I'd like to be consistent with other tests.
Using http://speedtest.xfinity.com/, I'm getting ~30 down and ~6 up, which is in line with my plan.
That or something simular. I get my rated speed on my wired connectin 400 MB, and on my wifi, even right next to router and on different channels 45-50 at the most!
