R7000 DLNA Enable Option
Hi all,
Perhaps you someone could point me at location of Enable/Disable DLNA server option in latest "V1.0.9.88" revision of firmware of R7000 (AC1900) Nighthals Router. I recall that some of the ...

mkonstantin, I didn't miss the point. I don't have an active R7000 so I can't tell if it is there or not?
It wouldn't surprise me if NG messed it up. Like the screen shot I posted the removed items were on that page. Some probably untrained programmer removed the function and the web page to enable it. Probably was CLUELESS as to what DLNA was so removed the whole page. Code is probably still in the f/w, but no way to enable it.
All I can say complaining here and HOPING NG people report this back and get it fixed is a crap shoot.
DarrenMcan you get this fixed as soon as possible?
Your fix for now, go back to V1.0.9.42 I'd think, .60, .64, and .88 all have serious problems for many user's in varying ways.

I have exactly the same problem. I suspect that the last update removed DLNA as well as the the other functions. I hope someone from NG looks at these posts and rectify the problem. I thought DLNA was mainstream?!

Looks to me like a left hand and right hand problem with Netgear, thier OEM, and the non-existing QA. As per the announcement and the release notes, the Media Server (DLNA) isn't supposed to be removed. It isn't removed btw on other models which have been streamlined to run Netgear Armor, too. Christian_R please.
