R8000 Firmware slow
Well I’m sure we all know that the Netgear Customer support is a joke by now. On to the point. I have downgraded my firmware to 1.0.4.28 in order to get my internet speed back. It worked as I was gett...
After you downgraded to 1.0.4.28 (what I usually recommend), did you do a factory reset and a clean install? making sure not to use a backup configuration?
Also make sure after the reset not to enable qos, traffic monitoring, access control, or parental controls.
Yes I did however when I did the factory reset it would automatically go to the most current firmware.
You should be able to disable auto-updates.

- Sorry for late response, I have been testing and as of now everything is remaining stable. I will keep monitoring and if all is good within 2 weeks time, I will mark this as the solution. Thanks for all the help and fast responses!
