I am a network admin and have seen the same BPDU issue cited in this link (below). It is coming from multiple make/model BExxxx RSxx / RSxxx series Netgear routers. I would like to know what firmware...

this is what they told me for the resolution for the improper BPDU broadcast, however you will have to ask for the trial link directly from netgear. i do not have that:
Here’s the current status by product family:
RS700 — Not impacted.
RS600 / RS500 / RS200 — Fixed in FW V1.0.5.12 (official release).
RS300 / RS150 / RS180 / RS140 / RS130 — Fixed but not yet officially released. Netgear can provide you with a trial version if you’d like.
RS100 / RS90 / RS70 — Fixed in FW V1.1.1.94 (official release).

Thank you! I ended up updating firmware to latest and it started working for some reason. Maybe they released it already?

What version of FW was loaded on your router?
