This happens on the latest R9000 beta as well. Reason is Netgear is trying to use the latest Samba version as Microsoft is removing SMBv1 support so most networking companies are scrambling to Samba 3.6 while Netgear is trying to use 4.6 I believe. They also need to strip the Samba stuff down so it’s small enough to fit in the router firmware and it seems they may have hit a snag somewhere.
