It's been a number of weeks. Any update on this bug? And the firmware release ETA?

Hi RedTechie

We have worked on this issue with top priority, warm thanks to all contributors (tech support file exports, configuration file exports etc..) on this post.

Yes we have internal new software releases for M4100, M5300, M6100, M7100 Managed Switches and for FS728TPv2, GS728TS/TPS, GS752TS/TPS, S3300 and XS708T/XS716T Smart Switches that are in the process of heavy validation testing before web posting. We will come back here asap to deliver more precise expected public release ETA on the above.  

For M4200, M4300 Managed Switches and for all other impacted Smart Switches, we are working hard on the fix as I speak.

Regards,

LaurentMa Updates?

Our initial firmware rollup fixing this issue is mostly done, after testing/validation and internal processes for publishing online. Please download new firmware and plan for maintenance window / upgrade at your convenience. 

For instance GS752TXS firmware version 6.1.0.36  and XS712T same version 6.1.0.36

Thanks for all your inputs regarding this issue, it was instrumental for NETGEAR team.

Thanks LaurentMa!

Yeah I actually just checked last night and saw the new firmware! You beat me to replying in this thread that the new version was released. :)

Thanks again, I will give it a try in the next few days!

LaurentMa, did you have an ETA on the new firmware for the GS752TS that resolves this issue?

Thanks :)

Checking on this! The new firmware isn't online yet despite it was ready alongside others. I will come back asap on this.

Regards,

OK we have the internal patch for GS728TS/GS752TS/GS728TPS/GS752TPS but the code is being merged with another urgent fix for imminent maintenance release. The ETA will be in one week from now for web publishing.

What about fixed firmware for GSM7248v2 and M7100-24X switches?

LaurentMa Thanks! I have been running the latest firmware with 4 of the new Ubiquiti APs now for about 2 weeks. Working great now!

Hi elderone

Technical validation and QA took longer for denser products like Fully Managed Switches and we expect to see final maintenance releases published before the end of this week. For now there are in e-room accessible by our Technical Support teams, so please don't hesitate to contact them and request the new firmware in advance:

Fully Managed Switches:

• M4100 like your GSM7248v2: 10.0.2.25
• M5300, M6100, M7100 like your XSM7224 : 11.0.0.29
