Re: NETGEAR R9000 NIGHTHAWK X10 Plex Version Update

Hi everyone,

 

We received confirmation that Plex version 1.16.3 was released on the R9000 this morning.

You should then be able to update your version from the device's GUI.

 

Thank you.

Re: Netgear Nightawk XR700 Plex Server Update required

Just checking in

Well its been 2 months now without being able to use Live TV without the Required  update to the xr700 plex server and no response from netgear.

This is very frustrating.  Is it actually part of a firmware update? 

Thank you

Gary

Re: Netgear Nightawk XR700 Plex Server Update required

I've asked my colleague who has asked Netgear to post here directly when they have an idea. I believe when you disable Plex then enable and apply it redownloads Plex so may be possible without a firmware update though I can't say 100%. Try this as well if you haven't already as possible its already been updated.

Re: Netgear Nightawk XR700 Plex Server Update required

Unfortunately I have tried that several times and it does not update.

I suspect that it may require a firmware update see below from the 1.0.1.8 update:

XR700 Firmware Version 1.0.1.8

Was this article helpful?    Yes      No

New Features and Enhancements:

  • DumaOS v1.13.8 update
  • Plex media server v1.14.0 update
  • ReadyCLOUD feature support
  • DumaOS ping assist support
  • DumaOS Theme control support
  • Netduma Hybrid VPN referral links
  • Netduma Advanced ping stats support
