What happened to the R7000 firmware 1.0.6.28?
I went to the download site on netgear.com and no longer see the 1.0.6.28 or 1.0.5.XX firmware. What happened to them? Should I be uninstalling and reverting back to an older version?
R7000 firmware 1.0.4. did not work very well, main problem VPN , WEB gui no port forward difficult if not impossible
R7000 firmware 1.0.5.60 Removed quickly, Web gui not sure,
R7000 firmware 1.0.6.28 main problem had ro reset and re-enter all portforwards,
disable ARLO ,
turned on wireless optimize , great.
Web gui works.
VPN works,
No drop that i can see
The only firmware that workes for me is 1.0.6.28 , have it installed running with no issues at 5 sites.
I have 1.0.6.28 firmware best one yet.

Keep using port forwarding and just wait... It's very buggy.
It's not wise to continue running it at five sites if even the manufacture pulled the firmware. Your anecdotal evidence doesn't mean the firmware actually works properly.
Mayby Netgear did pull because , like mentionned before complaints.
After trying all the firmwares since last december only 1.0.6.28 did every thing i needed and still does.
Like you mentionned buggy, did have that problem , did factory reset and re-entered all port forward, no issues since.
Even got Wake-up-on-lan working remotely properly through VPN.
so just saying from experience.
Have a great day
