Nighthawk AC1900 - Attached devices do not display with latest two firmware update
Hello, I am currently running firmware version "R7000-V1.0.11.123_10.2.100_hotfix" and my attached devices are properly displayed. Attached devices do not display properly with firmware versions ...
Thank you for the reply. Unfortunately, my attached devices do not display with v126 and v128.
I am still hoping to determine if “R7000-V1.0.11.123_10.2.100_hotfix” is safe to use and if if there is a fix for the missing attached device bug introduced again in v126 and v128.
f-donald I appreciate your issue, but why are you still using a firmware update that has been withdrawn by Netgear? You're trying to get an answer as to whether a firmware that has been withdraw is 'safe to use'. Only Netgear will tell you that and my guess is, they'll tell you to update to v128, even though that also appears to have issues that weren't there in previous firmware updates.
Indeed, are any of Netgear's firmware updates 'safe to use'? I've had to revert from v128 to v126 because my 5g WiFi just doesn't work properly on v128. I wouldn't mind, but both of my Intel based computers have all of the latest WiFi driver updates and everything else seems to work ok.
Besides, I've just completely rebuilt my home desktop to allow me to update to Windows 11 and it now has WiFi 6 AX incorporated. I won't be sticking with my R7000 for much longer!
