R7000 Firmware Version 1.0.11.130 - Just showed up Jan 6, 2022
The release notes say only: Fixes security vulnerabilities. Anyone tried this one? I am afraid... But, I always hope they fix some of the other ongoing stuff, like the Attached Devices list m...
After 48 hours and two reboots just to check, everthing seems good.
All the devices are visible in the GUI and Nighthawk app (Android).
Only glitch I can see is one Apple iPhone shows up, but without it's name.

I've been on '130 for 24 hrs. Seems Ok, so far. I edited a device name in the Attached Devices list and the router immediately refused any further browser access, but it kept routing. A power-cycle reboot restored its browser access and I saw my device name edit was successfully. So, I guess you could rename devices if you were willing to suffer through a reboot with each edit. Maybe that's NG's big security improvement - requiring a reboot after each edit ::smileyvery-happy:

So, I had to try. I edited an item in the device list, and the exact same result, the router refused access, unti I rebooted it. Figures Netgear cant actually do anything totaly right!
It gets worse. Without making any more edits, I came back later and again couldn't access it from my browser. Had to reboot again to regain access. Later, I came back a 3rd time and browser access worked. Go figure!
I would either power OFF the router for 1 minute then back ON, or factory reset and setup from scratch maybe needed.
