D3600 loses all settings on every reboot
Hi, After upgrade to version V1.0.0.64_1.0.1 D3600 loses all settings on every reboot. Could you provide instruction how to downgrade this firmware to version V1.0.0.47_1.0.1 on this device ?
This is the latest security feature that Netgear is introducing in their firmware for all consumer level devices. It protects the user from having their user ID and password settings for their ISP login retrieved in the event that their router is stolen.

If it is feature how I can configure router to remember settings after reboot ?

I assume that that fellow was making a joke. Did you find it funny?

Hmmm. Have you tried one of the newer older versions, like, say,
V1.0.0.61_1.0.1? I know nothing, but perhaps smaller backward steps
would work differently/better.
If a conventional installation isn't permitted, then perhaps a more
brute-force method, like the TFTP method, could be used, instead.I also have this problem, i try tftp but not work.
- Tftp method doesn't work, there is for while message that upgrade is in progress then tftp upgrade is interrupted. Maybe usage of UART interface could allow downgrade from firmware with bug. My modem have valid guarantee, so I am waiting for replacement.
