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!
The WIFI performance is still terriable on this router. Please have your 'software engineers' actually release something that works for such an expensive router.
I am so mad right now. I figured out that a 11 year old router does better than this stupid router. R7000
I have no problems with Wifi to be honest, nor with the rest of the network and i stream 4K video's through my network via Wifi...
I have 500/500 Internet connection and in speed test i get 515/515..
Almost 4 weeks I've been watching this thread. Have owned my R7000 a few years now. Has been one of the best routers I've owned. But I'm still waiting for the smoke to clear before updating. If .26 is still questionable, I'm waiting for .30 or later. I've been through the pitfalls and instability of bad FW. I've never seen Netgear take this long to rectify a bad FW release. So for now, I continue to wait.
Exactly my words.
I had bad experiene once and it turned out that Windows forced an update that completely screwed up my home network... Took me forever to figur it out.
I too wait for new "stable" release as i have no problems as far as i know.
When is Netgear gonna fix these problems, have been waiting since beginning od december for Fixes.
just applied this R7000 V1.0.9.26_10.2.31
Now , Chromecast will allow me to connect with Phone home app on either 2.4g and 5G.
But cannot discover device once setup, to apply cast/screen
Chromecast is getting to internet , because screen saver pages update.
Prior to this was at R7000-V1.0.9.18_1.2.27.chk with R7000-v1.0.9.14_1.2.25 Downgrade
Im ganna downgrade to R7000-v1.0.9.14_1.2.25
And try again.
