R7000-V1.0.5.52_1.1.81.chk

I stumbled on this FW today and was wondering if anyone @ Netgear cared to comment on it.

 

It's 12KB larger than the .48

Dated 12/21/2015

Has all the options that .48 had from what I can tell

Confirmed Port Forwarding does work for QNAPCLOUD

Faster file transfers from LAN to WiFi @ 866.7  peaked 74MBps averaged mid 60's

Connection rates 866.7~780.0MBps

A 7.73GB file now tranfers in UNDER 2 minutes.

I am able to ping and reach my gateway @ 10.0.0.1 which I couldn't with .48

 

Seems like a winner so far.

Good JOB!

    dBm levels should read -26 & -25

    As a comparison to r8000 5g -38   2.4 -28

    A 7.73GB file now tranfers in UNDER 2 minutes (mid 60's MBps) with r7000 ....R8000 takes over 2.5 minutes @ an average of  50MBps

    iPhone 4s Speedtest now hits 52MBps which is a first, and is better than mid 30's with r8000.

    R7000 2.4 and auto channel in case your wondering

    Signal (dBm) is 26 5g @1300 and 25 2.4 @ 289  These are back to the levels the r7000 had when first released more than 2 years ago
