My gear R8000, 3 Extenders and numerous older netgear products I have used in the past. This is my 3rd Nighthawk I have purchased and worked good in 2020 after numerous Firmware upgrades (security purposes) it has stopped performing as intended. DNS issues, and WI-FI dropping and needing to be rebooted constantly. Wired connections work just fine. This will be my last Netgear purchase unless they can release a firmware that fixes the issues. I have reverted back to 1.0.4.6x firmware now.
