Re: R8000P - Can't add a DHCP reservation for any MAC (Invalid MAC!)
I apologize for not participating in the discussion, but I've bought a different router and the one this thread is about is sitting on a shelf. I didn't have the energy or time to wait for a solution. I will definitely not buy any more products from this company.
Take care, best regards.

Did you not get the beta that fixed this?

Re: R8000P - Can't add a DHCP reservation for any MAC (Invalid MAC!)
I don't think there is a beta release due to the lack of someone actually posting a link to it. Netgear really needs to post a new firmware release that actually corrects the issue. They are well aware of this issue and have chosen to ignore it for now.

There IS beta FW that fixes this. Been out for a while now. Ya I agree, NG should just release it in the next FW update. If there will be one. 🙄

Having the same issue, and NetGear support is acting in a chat like they know nothing about this or anything related. Can someone please help and pass forward the link to the beta so I can fix my router? Thanks if someone can assist.

Yeah, I can see that from lots of messages.
As I haven't seen a post with a link to the beta firmware, what do I need to do to actually GET the beta?

@FURRYe38 you seem to be the only one who is actually aware of the existence of a beta release. You keep saying there is a beta, so why not post the link? I'm finding reports of this MAC address error from over a year ago. This is affecting me also. A critical function of any router is the ability to assign an address to a specific device, and this functionality is broken.
