Firmware update
I received an email today from Netgear informing me that a firmware update to firmware version: v1.0.1.44 was available for my router.
As the current version was v1.0.1.42 I followed the download ...
Yes, that model isn't available in the selection here - not because it's not a Nightawk, much more because it is a DSL router (-> https://community.netgear.com/t5/DSL-Modems-Routers/bd-p/home-dsl-modems-routers )
Firmware, documentation, .... always head to http://www.netgear.com/support/ and ener the model number, like D7800 ...
Current firmware is here: https://www.netgear.com/support/product/D7800.aspx#download - looks like your D7800 is up2date.
Current version for the R7800 is 1.0.2.60. You should unzip the file and upload the firmware image using the Update page of the Web GUI. Do not use wifi and/or smartphone to perform firmware updates. Always use a wired connection to minimize stuff that can go wrong
