XR700 Log - Issues?

[wildkinglion]

Just go my xr700 a couple of days ago, and I am having the exact same long log issues...
[DumaOS] No wifi metadata for mac 
[DumaOS] Error parsing line in ARP table:

Any word of a fix or what is causing this?

[slompochomp]

No news yet, but you can deselect the DumaOS at the bottom if you don't wish to see it for now.
I am just taking a guess here but it looks like a MAC ID lookup for the Device Manager so that when you connect a new device it will look up the MAC ID and resolve the correct device name, but I am guessing it is still in the works hence the Logging.

wildking, you don't need to be worried by the entries in the log file. They are quite verbose and are primarily aimed at the developers for debugging issues. The lines you're seeing should not impact the performance of your router.

[TANOLIS]

If they are vervose and intended to help developer's, they should be stopped at NETGEAR lab's. Why to pay hafty price and become a potential tester for a router ? 

The latest and greates firmware disconnect internet at least once a day. Here is the proof;

Not to mention, a continous repeat of developer's verbose debugging check;

Ohh.. and on the performance, new firmware actually degrades the performance.

My suggestion - If you like the hardware, Just stay with initial framework.

[Netduma-Fraser]

Netgear have always included visible logs to customers. You can disable DumaOS logs under the log in Settings. I've already let the Netgear developers know about the disconnects so hopefully they'll have a resolution soon. If a previous firmware works better for you do change to that instead.

[Altsai]

 I guess something related to these info are N/A (while you don't have wifi clients connected to XR700)

[Netduma_Jack]

Hi everyone,

I just got wind of this thread. So I've got a response from the developers:

"The log panel should be ignored by customers. Since it is causing support issues we will probably remove it in future versions. Every message in this thread in benign. The "warnings" and "errors" are simply letting the developers know that we are getting unexpected parse lines (which is very normal!). They have absolutely no impact on the routers performance. In fact this section is about detecting when a device goes offline and has nothing to do with Internet traffic / performance / disconnects, IPv6, etc -Iain "

Got beta FW which can fix the issue. Suggest you can contact NTGR team for the beta FW.

[Jrac86]

What version of beta firmware did you get? Can you share it? I opened a support ticket with Netgear for some issues I was having and requested any beta firmware, but they have not responded and it's almost been a week.

[Talontedd]

I am not using beta. I am using the previous version. This has performed well while waitimg on nexr firmware version release.

[Netduma_Jack]

Do you have a Case ID @Jrac86 ? We can chase this up for you with NETGEAR.
