I've been part of this thread for years, and I've been waiting for some official comment. I have no idea if arai-dreamer is a netgear employee, but I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and say they are representing netgear. But aria-dreamer, let me translate what your message means to your community:

My router was still under warrantee when this happeend and support wouldn't even talk to me about it. I, like many others, have long given up on the device with the problems. The bad part for netgear, we all know that this code is baked into the foundation of your product, and you're marketing pro/consumer devices that can't do basic things because of a stupid deisgn decision. Not only have we bailed on the device, (and I'm really speaking for myself, but others witll probably confirm) I gave up on the brand. I'd love to go back, so if anyone ever actually confirms this is fixed, I'd consider it, but at almost 8 years to get a "We'll think about it"... thats not going to buy my loalty back!
