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!
Just found this thread. I guess I got caught in this too. I started another post here, https://community.netgear.com/t5/Nighthawk-WiFi-Routers/AC1900-R7000-no-internet-email-ok/td-p/1468850 But I was having trouble posting and my replies didn't show up.
Back on 12/3 I had updated router to FW 1.0.9.12_1.2.23 and I think I must have said yes to do automactic updates which I don't usually do. It crashed a few days before Christmas. So I don't know what version it had when it crashed or was trying to update to. BUT anyway on my own, I did a RESET with a paper clip and went though some set up steps and now it's working ok so far on my wired PC and our iPads. It found an update but I declined it. I'm scared to update. So I am at 1.0.9.12 and it found 1.0.9.18_1.2.27. Holding steady so far.
Another question, how come a lot of times when I log into the router it says another device is already logged in? What's that all about?
"...a lot of times when I log into the router it says another device is already logged in? What's that all about?"
I get that too. Spies?
I've never seen that on my router before. I'd make sure remote administration is disabled and possibly change the password. I know there's a number of different bot networks over the past 12 months that have targetted routers, maybe related?
- It just remember other console sessions from other devices. Maybe genie on your smartphone. Nothing to worry about.
