D7000 firmware 1.0.1.80 GPL Source Code Missing

The D7000 last firmware version 1.0.1.80 GPL source code has been wrongly linked into the NETGEAR-Open-Source-Code-for-Programmers-GPL and can't be downloaded.

 

This is the link involved:

https://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GPL/D7000%20V1.0.1.80_1.0.1_gpl.tgz 

 

The blank space between "D7000" and "V1.0.1.80_1.0.1_gpl.tgz" makes the link unreachable even if file is located also with %20 blank char code:

please fix it otherwise no way to obtain the source package.

 

Regards

A word of warning, you should know that this community is essentially a user-to-user venue with some input from a small band of Netgear techies.

 

They may well miss your message. 

 

If you want "official" support then you should go through the right channels.

 

Contact Us | Support | NETGEAR

 

Or track down a Netgear moderator and send them a private message.

@alireza_asol  Yes, its a shame we cant get official support directly to Netgear.

 

Especially for talented people like Negan07, who routinely cleans up Netgears firmware for less bloat/linux package updates they have missed/better user interface for more settings and options ..

@DarrenM Could this topic also be elevated?

 

Maybe request that the GPL source code is always included.

Thank you in advance.
