Re: xr500 beta DUMAOS 3.0

People of Netgear... what we have to do to take the beta??? It’s really unpleasant to see a lot of people to already have it with R1 and R2!!! You forced me and a lot of people to sell the XR 500 and buy the R2. Please give on the community the respect they are deserved!!

Re: xr500 beta DUMAOS 3.0

I switched back to my tplink router that costs maybe 30 eur but receives updates still 5 years later, what a discrace it is to have spent large amount of money not getting any updates and being promised that betas are being sent, so many people registered the day it was announced & till this day nothing.

Re: xr500 beta DUMAOS 3.0

There are thousands of people with XR routers and they cannot all be given the beta immediately. I understand the frustration but more invites will be sent out as soon as they can be.

This is their Community forum so they don't often reply to each other. Maybe @ChristineT can help get you into the beta.

Re: xr500 beta DUMAOS 3.0

Hi,

 

 

How do you get the Xr500 to show devices in the IOS Nighthawk app?  It has never worked for me on any firmware versions including the latet 3.0.

I Router was was reset to factory multiple times with same results.

 

 

It just says "Sorry, the action was failed. Please try again.  .

Re: xr500 beta DUMAOS 3.0

I would recommend making a ticket here as it is purely a Netgear feature so not something I'd be able to accurately advise on: http://support.netgear.com/

Re: xr500 beta DUMAOS 3.0

It only works for me when I use it in Remote mode. You ha e to be connected to the same wifi to enable remote mode, then disconnect from wifi and connect as remote using cellular data. Hopefully it works for you too.

Re: xr500 beta DUMAOS 3.0

I use the nighthawk app iOS and I don’t have any issue with this. I can see the devices and turn on/off the internet access. I remember that I had this issue after one update of the app and on the next update the solved it.

Re: xr500 beta DUMAOS 3.0 - device manager ios app

Does anything need to be enabled in the router in order for the IOS app to show devices on it???

Re: xr500 beta DUMAOS 3.0 - device manager ios app

Remote management would probably need to be on. If using away from your local wifi for sure ot would need to be on.

Netgear are in charge of the invites so we can't invite you. You will need to sign up here if you haven't already done so.http://www.netgearinnovation.com/dumaos-beta/index.html

They can send you the new update on a software on the computer But they’re technically not allowed to want to do that they can get banned if they find out I got banned on my last account

Re: xr500 beta DUMAOS 3.0

I am in the beta now and I have a question regarding ping heatmap: how is it possible to connect to your created list of game servers only from the ping heatmap or is it possible at all? How do you do that overall? I made a custom list but it didnt connect to the servers I made a list of I think.

Re: xr500 beta DUMAOS 3.0

@Itsnotuitsme could you take a look at this guide and see if you're able to achieve full speeds after following the instructions? http://support.netduma.com/en/support/solutions/articles/16000076586-dumaos-optimal-settings-guide-m...

@Enforcive could you post any questions etc in the beta forum please? That's not possible at the moment but we'll work on integrating them more. For now its supposed to inform what Geo-Filter settings you want to use so if you find a low ping server for a game you want to play then set up the Geo-Filter to cover that area.

I signed up but used the wrong netgear community user ID. It should match what’s here. I reached out on twitter as well. Can I change that to what’s shown here please?
