Netgear R7000 firmware downgrade
Hi, I am planning to flash ddwrt image into Netgear R7000 router, for that the firmware version in the router should be V1.0.3.56 but currently the firmware version is V1.0.9.34_10.2.36 . So can you please help me to downgrade the firmare in my router.
If it can't be done I'm thinking to return the board as it of of no use to me, if I can't flash ddwrt image into that.
Thanks in advance.
