I solved the problem: here is how.
I contacted Amazon: in 3 minutes chat the undestood my problem (caused by Netgear), gave me money back giving me the time to buy a brand new router (not a Netgear) so I can keep online my business.
I can thanks Italian Netgear assistance only: they were 100% with me and tried to find a solution with the Headquarte, but being linked to main assistance directives they surrended.
Amazon has now a more and more faithful client: it's a good-company, smart.
Netgear lost me (and I guess many other) as a client; I wil NEVER buy Netgear products anymore in my life: it's a bad-company (may I say "silly"?!).
