I want the Duma OS on my R8000 it would be nice to get a nice piece of software on my already amazing router. I just don’t want to pay another $300 for a new router when mine is perfectly fine.

Talked to the people who write the Duma OS?
Duma OS support said it is up to Netgear to ask them if they want it on any other routers besides the XR500. Duma OS said they can put it on any of the newer nighthawk routers.

Guess Netgear would have to pay Duma to write a new version and then to sell it to customers.
The XR500 is certainly expensive, even though it is essentially a tarted up R7800, which Netgear used as the test bed for Duma OS.
Netgear has added "firmware" features to existing products, Disney circle, for example. But it sells that on a subscription basis.
How much would you be prepared to pay for Duma OS?
Get enough votes and it might carry some weight. Good luck.
So do the owners of the Nighthawk X10 R9000 routers near 500 dollar router with the same hardware as the XR700
come netgear customers make it known that we are not happy
