Good news! We now have a production version of firmware that should resolve the 2.4 GHz issue, v1.0.5.64. You may download this firmware from our R7000 page here: http://downloadcenter.netgear.com/en/product/R7000#searchResults
As IrvSp correctly notes, this version of firmware fixes the 2.4 GHz issue and reinstates the new features, such as Kwilt, Smart Connect, and WiFI Transmit Power Control. It does not support Arlo. We hope to have a beta version that supports Arlo in the next two weeks.
We welcome any feedback you provide on this new firmware, and appreciate your patience as we resolved these issues. Thank you all for supporting the R7000 and NETGEAR!

I downloaded the file, I do it tomorrow the update, is there something special I will need to do ? par example hard reset, wifi button on off? or must I do first fabric installation and then the new beta firmware?

Just a quick follow up to Black Label - we fixed the connectivity issue and restored all the new functionality except for the ability to use the R7000 as a base station for Arlo. This is still a beta for the next couple of weeks. We would greatly appreciate any feedback from those of you who experienced problems previously. Many thanks to all of you for your patience with us, and for the feedback that led us to higher quality firmware.

For those of us with Arlo cameras, it'd be great to have the new beta with Arlo integration, too.
