JamesGL, ElaineM

 

Thank you again for your help on this issue. Will QoS databse updates after the firmware update be tied to FW updates, or will they be independently updateable?

 

Also, is there an estimate to when the next firmware update will come out?

 

Thank you for your time.

    Came to the Nighthawk from an old Asus. What a change. Your firmware is garbage and this database issue just highlights just how careless you are with your customers and this space. I am returning this R8000 to the retailer and purchasing another Asus. If you all want to have a better experience, buy a different brand. This interface is from the early 2000's and its functionality is in the same boat.

    Never again,

    Unsatisfied Customer

      I'm with you. No https, database on recent devices totally ignored for QoS, and I'm not even sure they released a Krack patch firmware yet.

      I'm shopping Asus high end models at this point. So sad for Netgear. Could be a great company but they just want sales.

    JamesGL & ElaineM,

     

    Would it be possible to get and update to my 1/16 questions? I'd like to know if QoS databases after the next firmware update will arrive independently of updates (as initially intended).

     

    Also, any word on when the next firmware update is to be released?

     

    Looking forward to having this QoS issue solved. Thanks for your help.
