R7800 Streamboost updates are from March
I have just noticed the R7800 Streamboost updates are from the 2nd March 2016, thats just shy of 5 months old. I thought these updates are meant to be at the least updated quaterly, and are to go on for two years after the router reaches end of life (Qualcomm terms) Considering the R7800 is a current model why no updates? This isnt great and has happened before, Netgear dont seem able to keep thier routers QoS up to date at all.
- Its been updated to June now so all is partially well, its just that Netgears implementation of it is so very buggy.

Hi Killhippie,
Are you referring to the last firmware update of the router?

No Im saying the QoS Streamboost update is 5 months old, I'm pretty sure Qualcomm kick them out faster than that, so wondering why netgear have not updated it, I tought they were at least quaterly.
