realtime bandwidth monitoring by device
It would be great if you could see realtime bandwidth per device for the netgear r7000, similar to Google Wifi and Eero. It would be a really useful info and diagnostic tool to see what devices are currently taking up bandwidth. It would be great if this was added to the router web administration page as well theNetgear Genie and/or Netgear Up apps. I've attached a screenshot of how this feature looks on Google Wifi.(Outgoing) VPN client functionality
Hi, I am using a VPN service on my devices for privacy purposes, but I hoped it would be possible to set the router up as a VPN endpoint so that the connection would be transparent to the devices. In addition to being easier to maintain one connection, opposed to separate connections per device, I would also think this would be more secure: With a kill switch in the router, the devices would lose internet access and be unable to use an unsecure connection. It would also probably save the smartphone battery as the VPN app wouldn't have to be active continously. This functionality would be helpful even if it was implemented without any advanced features, however I see that it could potentially be expanded with more advanced functionality as following steps. The background: I'm using a shared internet connection going through my landlord's router, and I like to use VPN to protect my privacy. I hope this is something you could consider. Please let me know in case of any questions or if any specification is necessary. Thank you!Firewall Rules for Internet/WAN -> LAN on IPv4 and IPv6, LAN -> WAN/Internet for IPv4 and IPv6
Amazing Orbi, Orbo Pro, Nighthawk Routers, DSL Routers, Mobile Routers have service blocking (only for IPv4 why ever) - limiting the LAN -> Internet access (why ever somebody want to do this) but there is no control to manage firewall rules for Internet/WAN -> LAN. When can we expect a workable UI ot manage firewall rules for IPv4 and IPv6 LAN->Internet and Internet/WAN->LAN please? And then support for a ISP changing IPv6 prefix (ie. if the ISP does change the IPv6 prefix because they use rapid deployment (6rd) where the prefix is linked to the IPv4 address. And every time a user is seeking or this the Netgear mods reply to use Service Blocking - what of course does not work for WAN/Internet -> LAN.

Hello everyone, I know I'm not the first one who writes about this topic, but I'd like to make Netgear know that our router needs this upgrade. Here is the same Idea for another italian guy: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Scambio-di-idee-per-Home/D7000-profilo-vdsl2-35b/idi-p/1243476 Thankyou
