This is the community support forum. Where members of the public help out. We're not netgear.
There is the occassional mod on here but its rare and far between.

Yes I fully understand that this is not an official Netgear forum. But how else can one get Netgear do fix their products so they work as they are supposed to. Netgear so called support is non-existent, having tried to get a response from someone there.

Re: COME ON NETGEAR WAKE UP AND FIX THE BROKEN DNS YOU CAUSED
This is the workaround I used:
Go to into routeradmin pages go to advanced home and note the dns entries.
Go to windows control panel and click on ‘Network and sharing centre’
Click ‘change adaptor settings’. DoubleClick the ethernet/wifi adaptor and click properties,
highlight Internet protocol version 4(TCP/IPv4) click properties:
Click ‘use the following DNS server address’ and enter dns numbers in the ‘preferred dns server’ and alternative server boxes.

After a month of bitching, I was finally was able to get Netgear the info they needed to troubleshoot the DNS issue. Hopefully, they will now begin to really look into the DNS issue and fix the firmware.
