Summer Time Configuration improve the description of the fields to be "Offset Minutes" instead of just "Offset" because this is misleading as one assumes "Hours" (as it is in "Time Configuration") also slightly better "Time Zone Name" instead of just "Zone" (as it is in "Time Configuration")

Hi, I would like to Control the roaming. Like a customer with thin or large walls might need diffrent roaming settings for best customer preformance. Something like a SNR setting or RSSI. Or similar control to make client move earlier or later depending on network and pysical limitations per site. Example, i have a customer where the wall between rooms are 1m thick with Iron rebar and steel sheet reinnforced. This customer needs a SNR of 15 to make sure that the client stays just long enough to have enough signal for the next jump.

I love this system but lacking these feature to increase the privacy and security is really a shame. There is a possibility to add this in the future?

Hello, This is more of a bug finding than an idea. (Netgear Support asked that I post here. Apologies is this is the incorrect spot.) When I recently added the Alexa Netgear skill to my Echo Dot, it added two Netgear devices. The problem was I only own a single Netgear device now, which is registered on my.netgear.com. (I had previously owned the other device and returned it, then removed it from my list of registered devices.) I came to the conclusion that the database that the Alexa Netgear skill uses includes unregistered devices, bringing over ghosts from registrations past. Also, these devices, since they don't actually exist on your network, cause delay problems for users of the Alexa Netgear skill (they did for me), because the phantom devices don't respond. My request is that the Alexa Netgear skill team keep their list of registered devices in sync with those that are in my.netgear.com. This will improve the usability of the skill and reduce device clutter in the Alexa app. Many thanks in advance, Steve

I'd like to see in the app a back haul status, even if it were a simple color coded line connecting the satellite to the router as shown on the network map. Better would be some tangible measure of signal strength or bandwidth

I'm getting notified every single time a device connects and ever single time it scans a device and find NO PROBLEM. There should be a setting to notify ONLY when a problem is found. I'm afraid that if I disable notifications from the app, then I will not know if a problem is ever detected....but sadly that is apparently what I need to do now.

The orbi does not provide wpa2 only security on the main orbi network. This causes issues with older printers. The option for wpa2/3 will not work where a device is unable to negotiate the correct security handshake. The setting needs to be explicitly wpa2 for older printers to work

Hi folks I’d like to request an addition to the engage controller. Since lots of us are deploying these switches on fibre runs it would be great to get a read out of received optical power in the engage controller - basically the same stuff you get from “show fiber-ports optics all” in the CLI, without having to ssh into each switch to get it. It’d be neat if it also had a red/amber/green display to quickly spot bad links. Thank you!

You have 2 device compatibilities so far, please add M4300 8x-8f (XSM4316S) to the S3300/M4300 firmware pair! https://kb.netgear.com/000049533/Smart-M4300-S3300-Stacking-Notes-and-Restrictions?article=000049533 The link above provides context to the question and idea. Thanks!

The following switch models, currently do not support TLS connectivity for the admin WEBUI, which in this day and age really not acceptable. Models: GS305EPP GS308E (Additionally this switch model does not have a username, you login using just a password). Please can the firmware for the above models be updated to ensure that admin WEBUI access is able to use TLS v1.2 and v1.3 with best practise ciphers.

Hello Netgear people. I need a way to mount you switch using a 4 or 5mm bolt, are there any mounting options beside that little wood screws that are provided? I need a special nut that fits the mounting holes, anyone got any ideas? Brad

Netgear should offer the MR80 with one Satellite. I would spend the extra money for the tri-band if it was a little more expensive than the dual band, and wouldn’t need or use the third satellite.

Bonjour à tous, Je voudrais partager une suggestion pour améliorer le portail captif. Je pense que l'ajout d'une fonctionnalité de personnalisation de la couleur et de la modification de la police d'écriture serait très utile. En permettant aux utilisateurs de personnaliser l'apparence de la page de connexion, nous pourrions offrir une expérience plus personnalisée et professionnelle. De plus, cette fonctionnalité pourrait également aider à renforcer la marque de notre entreprise en permettant aux clients de voir notre logo et nos couleurs d'entreprise chaque fois qu'ils se connectent à notre réseau Wi-Fi. J'espère que cette suggestion sera prise en compte et je suis impatient de voir cette fonctionnalité ajoutée au portail captif netgear Cordialement,

Hi I would like to have the option to completely disable the Wireless Backhaul on the Orbi Pro. We can do so on the WACD and WAX but not on the Orbi Pro. The reason for me is that I see Satellites wired connected to a switch with one uplink to the network where the Orbi Router is on. When that switch need to be restarted you will get a loop as the Satellite will connect via the WiFi Backhaul to the Router as long as the switch boots but at a certain moment the switch is back online and the Satellite is still on the WiFi Backhaul. The result can be that the on switch the uplink port to the network will get disabled by STP. So sometimes when the Satellites are connected over a wire you might want to disable the WiFi Backhaul.

web gui is very confusing and if you dont know netgear much you dont find settings like dns etc quickly. so add a search option (javascript, browserside) which allows to quickly search in an index the setting page.. so searching for "dns" will show me the page where i can set dns settings. also add option to quickly open context in cli on each page, so i can click a button which shows this context part in cli, which can be edited in browser like notepad or sth else. or a small cli popup.

as we all dislike downtimes we need a simple restart if updating to a new firmware. a) just switchover during run if change is quite simple and restart some services b) restart but keep on switching but just do some basic things like vlan etc if this is possible by hardware. means a kind of fallback switching if cpu is restarting, many tasks shouldnt need cpu. c) add an option to restart switch without letting ports go down so server wont notice downtime. so they will just timeout i know these ideas are not really useful, but maybe an inspiration in optimizing the update downtime. also a faster reboot could be nice without all h/w inis. also reboot should be timed on special countdown in minutes or on special time/date setable over html GUI. so it can be planned. also if boot fails it should recover to old fw, for doing so it should force user to login to web gui and say ok worked otherwise it would reboot to old fw
