    Thanks for the info! I actually downgraded as well, right after I posted. All is working again!

     

    Is there any place we can submit the bug to Netgear so they can fix it?

I had to downgrade my R9000 back to V1.0.3.10 as well.

 

This is a pretty significant bug, I'm surprised the Netgear team let it get released.

 

I really hope a fix is coming soon.

    I agree, it is a pretty severe oversite.

     

    I have 6 devices on my network that use it. 4 of those 6 dont offer the ability to manually forward the port to their IP. (they dont give the port number that would need to be forwarded)

      I too am eagerly awaiting a fix to the UPNP.  This has made my Plex server not available for remote viewing unless I manually forward the port (which I should have to do).

        That was one of the things that i used the UPNP for.
