Re: XR700, Duma 3.0

The only release for 3.0 is .34, I believe I misspoke previously referencing .36 by mistake, that won't be the next version number

Now I thought Netgear had your latest SW for DumaOS 3.0 and we were waiting for it to pass their SQA?  This latest spreadsheet looks like it's still in SQA for NetDuma? Does that mean that it's come BACK from Netgear and you're doing your own final SQA before release or...

Re: XR700 - DumaOS 3.0 Beta Firmware

@XR700-Owner yep so that happened, bugs were found which we're now fixing and sending our changes across for a new build to be made and for next testing to commence. The updates may show it going back and forth, that's normal.

Re: XR700 - DumaOS 3.0 Beta Firmware

Perfect guys. Make sure UPnP will work on newest build. I have both routers XR500 and XR700 and UPnP don't work at all. Keep Eye on that please.

Don't know if you've already answered this but is the next FW due out full version of 3.0 with the R-App store?

Re: XR700 - DumaOS 3.0 Beta Firmware

The next version will be a lot more in line with all the other platforms and what they provide, subject to NG agreeing on features but it won't have the Rapp store - no platforms do currently.

Re: XR700 - DumaOS 3.0 Beta Firmware

Oh, I thought I read somewhere that the next release would have the adblocker. I just assumed that was only available through the rapp store.

We've been bringing out new features independent of the Rapp store at the moment

Re: XR700 - DumaOS 3.0 Beta Firmware

For example we brought Adblocker to the XR1000 with a new firmware, not using the Rapp store. There are some new features coming, we've posted a little about it on our YouTube channel.

Re: XR700 - DumaOS 3.0 Beta Firmware

Something I've only just come across. We have ISP's that offer >1Gbps and the xr700 has an sfp+ port capable of 10Gbps. When we go into QoS and set our own speed, why is it limited to 1000Mbps? We should be able to set this up to 10,000Mbps considering that's the max rate of the sfp+ port.

Re: XR700 - DumaOS 3.0 Beta Firmware

Because this chip can handle only 1Gb. That was mentioned in datasheet somewhere on this forum. But better ask Fraser.

Re: XR700 - DumaOS 3.0 Beta Firmware

It technically already is hard limited to 1Gbps. The ports to the PCs can't go faster since they are gigabit ports.

Re: XR700 - DumaOS 3.0 Beta Firmware

It's awesome hearing about features we won't see for another 3 years or until we actually upgrade our routers to new models. 😛

Re: XR700 - DumaOS 3.0 Beta Firmware

Link aggregation should help. Or 60ghz wifi. Keep us informed if you able to reach over 1g.

Re: XR700 - DumaOS 3.0 Beta Firmware

As above basically, LAN ports are gig, the WiFi wouldn't go that high either. The idea behind the SFP port I believe was more for your local network hence why it's the only platform to have Plex integration

Re: XR700 - DumaOS 3.0 Beta Firmware

Well that's not true I've had speed tests from the router going as high as 1.2Gbps. If the router "chip" can only go 1Gbps, why give this unit a 10Gbps sfp+ port? Also if I can get downloads from the router's speed test >1Gbps I should be able to manually set these speeds as well since when I set it to automatically determine the speed it goes over 1Gb itself.

Re: XR700 - DumaOS 3.0 Beta Firmware

Sfp+ port is wan only for xr700. There is no option to use it as lan.

Re: XR700 - DumaOS 3.0 Beta Firmware

I can check that. I have 10g connection from my isp. But 2x xr700 laying in box and wait for Duma 3.2. Meanwhile i swapped to 10g mikrotik router with sfp+ cages

Re: XR700 - DumaOS 3.0 Beta Firmware

Not true. You can use sfp+ as lan on xr700

Re: XR700 - DumaOS 3.0 Beta Firmware

The router speed test does it from the router to the server so it can show higher but no devices will get that high or be able to use that extra bandwidth so no need to input the speeds higher. We can absolutely change the limit but it wouldn't really make much difference.
As written in the manual, it is a 10G LAN SFP+ port so can be used for LAN or WAN, there is no option for it as a LAN port you just use it as one like the others.
