are you serious. all these viewers and nobody knows how to get the V1.0.5.49_20151208_timesync firmware. does anyone from netgear look at this site. I want my timestamp to show a correct time and date, ya know like a properly functioning router should do. Like it used to before the latest update.

recieved email,accepted agreement. but no file. said I need a dropbox acct. are you serious. I have no need or desire to open a dropbox acct. this is what I mean by, making your customers jump thru hoops. I want access to this file, download and install thru my own path. your firmware update created this and I want my router to function as it is suppose to. Is this file available or not, and why isnt it posted in a download site.

I was sent a link by email to download the file straight from, back in May.

Hi bernietg,
The firmware is a beta one and is not available for download anywhere. You have given a copy for NDA which you have signed.
