Importing address reservations, Nighthawk R7000
At this stage of development, WHY do you still not have a way of importing/exporting things like address reservations? I have a spreadsheet of my machines/tablets/phones, and it would be really sim...

Yeah, I've made various suggestions over the years, I thought MAYBE they might have acted on some of them. But that would be too much like doing WORK.
No matter, this P.o.S. is going BACK to the store for my money back. And appropriate product reviews posted.

A little forum browsing ought to make it pretty clear that Netgear
has finite resources to apply to firmware problems on these routers,
many of which cause bigger problems than inconvenient data entry. I
_hope_ that they'd prioritize those resources in ways which would
probably do nothing to ease your pain.

No, I'm saying that any resources which Netgear applied to your
complaint would be unwisely spent, given all the other, more important
problems which need their attention.

If no one else has produced the device which you want, then you can
either pay someone to do it for you, or you can do it yourself. Or you
can wait for it to appear.
As you may recall, you originally asked why some potentially
desirable features were not (already) available (phrased as if someone
from Netgear might be paying attention, and care.) I believe that I
answered that question (although my relationship to Netgear is, like
yours, only as a victim).
There's a dedicated suggestions forum somewhere, for just such
feature requests. I assume that it's mostly a black hole, so I haven't
recorded its location, but I'd expect a Web search to find it without
very much difficulty.

The comment about a magnetized needle was sarcasm. You have heard of sarcasm I presume?

Thanks. I _never_ would have guessed. There's a corollary to
Clarke's third law: "Any sufficiently lame sarcasm is indistinguishable
from stupidity." (Or, at least, deserves to be treated as such.)
