I tried V1.0.2.68 and same issue! How can Netgear miss the ball on such a good wifi router?
My uPNP stay always clear, can't connect to games online, can't have my NAS to expose services to outside.
Check whether your upnp service is enabled on the services.msc if you're running windows. I can confirm the upnp is working on 1.0.2.62 but not on the 1.0.2.68

Upnp is working on 1.0.2.62! But not working on 1.0.2.68!
Netgear, get your **bleep** together and release a new firmware update that fixes the upnp and provided the latest security updates.

For me, DLNA (uPnP) was working on 1.0.2.68. Then I turned it off, and then turned it back on. From since then, uPnP stopped working - all my videos cannot be streamed. Not only that, SMB access to videos also stopped working for my iPhone and iPad, even though SMB is still working on my macOS. Tried a lot of reboots / configs but can't work. Downgraded to 1.0.2.62 and every video on uPnP and SMB streamed well. Upgraded back to 1.0.2.68 and every video just stopped streaming again. I am now on 1.0.2.62..
