    You should review this and maybe revert back to this recommended version of FW:

    I've looked here again after a while and I can't belive the problem is still not solved....

    Since I've flashed Tomato a few weeks ago I've forgotten that I have a router- it's working perfectly getting dust because i do not touch it at all :-)...

     

    Parental control works perfectly, 0 drops, strong signal - save your time and do a similar thing!

On Netgear being silent: They did reach out to me last night via direct message, and they say this issue is their top priority, so that's good news. I think working openly in the forum might be difficult for them by now because there's a lot of frustrated owners here, but at the same time they should realize they're creating the perception that there is no response at all on their end, which is bad.

Unfortunately, in my case, I am back at work again and I need a stable home network, plus the most likely devices to drop off we're brought by visiting relatives who left again already, so it's fairly tough to spend more and more time on this.

At this point I am hopeful that they're reaching out to others who can reproduce the issue easily to work with them. I've offered to do what I can, but that's limited, at least during the week.
