    For some reason I simply reset the router, hard reset and start from scratch but still has the newer firware (1.0.6.28). Oh well, it works either way.

How accurate is the "ETA 1 week" ? I had to roll back to 1.0.4.30 but find I'm getting mediocre performance from 2.4Ghz and Lan-To-Lan file transfer. 

And yes, I reset the router and aplied default setting etc after 1.0.4.30 

 

I had high hopes for the R7000 but if this is the Q/A that comes out of Netgear regarding firmware, I'm ready to dump it and go for another brand.
