Blame me for the wall of text PR, just thought it would be better than staying quiet but maybe not. I guess it's the definition of spending a lot of time saying nothing since i'm not allowed to actually tell you what we're working on. Not much I can really say except that I believe in the end the updates we're working on will be worth the wait.

Come on now with the "I am not allowed to say anything". Can we please get someone with some Title that can tell us what the hell is going on around here. If they dont have the title maybe someone with some balls can inform us then. The community is out here waiting and waiting for this product to succeed in every way. Seriously now come on please shed some light on what is in store for the product and an ETA.

I wish we could be more specific but the nature of development doesn't allow that freedom as much.

I get NDA's and Deadlines etc but Netgear adn NEtduma have to realize how this leaves a bad taste in the mouths of all customers. We have yet to hear anything of substance from Netgear other than saying her'e an update. Several of the updates were actually pulled because of issues found immediately after they released the update. Still, no explanation just revert back to old f/w.... So with no real community support here that leave everyone pointing to the Netduma forums. There we find other users just as disgruntled from previous version and new alike. R1 owners have been waiting years and were told updates would come faster than ever with the new OS, they haven't. R1 owners are still plagued by some of the same issues they experienced before Duma2.0. Now the forum is full of users showing the same issues maybe with different levels of detail but the to the same end result. So what exactly are we supposed to do? We've waiting for a year or more for the OS to FULLY function as advertised when released yet we have zero recourse according to Netdumas hand's being tied behind their back and Netgears reluctnace to help anyone who refuses to purchase an extended warranty. I've seen issues like this before with Netgear cable modems (Puma6) as well their ranage extenders. I guess what all this points to is Netgear will straight *** you until a federal judge slaps their hands and imposes a fine.
