That's nice, but an actual firmware version would convey more useful
information.

Where, exactly, did you look?
Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
for Documentation. Get the User Manual. Read. Look for "Specify Basic
WiFi Settings". (Note: "cant" is a word, different from "can't".)

Knowing as much as I do about your (unspecified) "internet
connectivity issues", I can say with complete confidence that I have no
idea whether using a different radio channel would help, but it's a
pretty easy experiment to run.
- Wow!! That answer was very curt, negative and not at all helpful. If I knew what I was doing, I wouldn’t be asking for help! And correcting my grammar?? Really?? Thanks for nothing.

Might be more spelling (or lazy typing) than grammar, depending on
exactly what you don't know. It's a free educational service. You're
welcome. (I didn't bother complaining about your misuse of "its", did
I? Yow. Some people complain when they're hanged with a new rope.)> [...] Thanks for nothing.
You seem to have trouble distinguishing between "nothing" and
"exactly what I asked for (at least)". This might be a bigger handicap
than bad grammar, but I may be powerless to help with that.
