Nighthawk R7000 Updated to Firmware Version: V1.0.8.34
My Nighthawk R7000 AC1900 Dual Band WIFI just updated to Firmware Version: V1.0.8.34_1.2.15. I used the process Router Update, Check for new version from the Internet. Where can I find the release...
Information from ElaineM:
"We are working to rollout a new firmware with additional features for existing customers in a phased manner. Once the rollout is completed, we will make the firmware available on support site for a wider audience."
Also here http://www.netgear.com/support/product/r7000.aspx#download is an old one 1.0.7.12
I just ran the manual Router update from Genie and my R7000 also updated to "Firmware Version V1.0.8.34_1.2.15".
I wonder what changes come with this FW other than the option to automatically update the FW.
Checked my R7000 tonight and took a screen shot when checking for a firmware update. I'm tempted to update but want to see what ElaineM says regarding this latest release. Just got an email from Netgear Engineering regarding the WAN uptime status bug - hoping to work with them and find a resolution. According to the release notes listed by the upgrade utility, it appears this new firmware allows for increased analystics data - maybe this will help pinpoint some strange issues we've all been having.
Where to download it manualy?
These things land at different times in different places. When it is widely available, find it here
