R8000P Latest "breakware"...AGAIN!

I gave a fine explanation. I am a EE. I write good properly operating code. I test, test, and then test again. I TRY to break my code. And when it is right, it gets released. AND THEN, I am ALL ears to my public because I WANT to know what is wrong or right. I don't go hide behind curtains and BS after a release. Electronically this doorstop could be much better if someone knew how to fix ONE thing without breaking THREE! MODEM???? Really??? Remove the router and connect directly to the modem...all fine? 99.9% of people's issues with their internet is their ROUTER or Malware filled computer. When a customer HAS to REVERT to a previous OLD firmware version to make the new $250 box work, I smell incompetence and a level of ignorance on the part of the manufacturer, and when the manufacturer REFUSES to respond or "make whole" the customer because of their NON-support and poor quality workmanship I say report the b@stards to the FTC. This is NOT an annoyance, it is a failure of the basic fundamental operation of the router! I see it as fleecing the public of money for an inferior and non-supported POS. AND, just got to mention the 1.4.1.50 fiasco that people are still dealing with!! Who the heck has ever heard of releasing a version of firmware LOCKED!...NEVER to be updated again? AND has BUGS! AND then ignore the problem until the customer raises SO much heck (FTC, AG Office, etc.) that they send another unit that CAN be upgraded to a firmware that, at the very least, works. What is even MORE amazing to me is the fact that KNOWN broken firmware downloads are STILL available to break your unit! I do feel sorry for the technically challenged people out there as they are NetGear's bread and butter...NetGear DOESN'T like intelligent, informed, and educated individuals.
