Refresh/update the forum
The Netgear forums are pretty bad to say the least. The UI is slow and ugly. Netgear employees don't seem to read or care about all the feedback/complaints that we post. This forum needs to be totally revamped. Customer service needs to improve along with it.38KViews0likes3Comments
Bei Neustart SSH Port wieder zurückgesetzt, aber wieso?
Hallo Ich habe einen NAS RN10200 und bin sehr glücklich damit. Er fungiert als Backupsystem für meine Onlineserver. Doch seit dem ich das Softwareupdate auf 6.7.4 gemacht habe, stehe ich in einen Bereich mit ihm auf Kriegsfuss. Bei jedem Neustart setzt er meinen extra geänderten SSH Port wieder zurück. Das mag ich nicht, denn der Mensch sagt der Maschine was sie tun soll und nicht umgekehrt. Wie kann ich den Port ändern, ohne das er ständig zurück gesetzt wird?

Edited posts get removed?
OK, since there's no proper place to adress problems regarding the functionality of the forums, I'll just post it in the same category as where the bugs happened. It seems that every time I try to edit a reply, when I hit "post" in the edit window, I get redirected to the "threads list," where you see all the thread of the category you're in (not sure what the proper name is for that) and when I then go back to the thread where I wanted to edit the reply, the reply is gone. This has happened quite a few times now. Also, in one of my own threads, I tried to edit one of my replies which I had selected as a solution, so now that solution is also gone and the link in the thread that says "go to solution" is now dead. Is anyone aware of tthese bugs?
OT: MIght see reduced forum participation after unannounced password rule changes
Just a heads up guys, since I have no real idea where to otherwise let you know... After using these forums for some time with a password-manager password of 40 characters and a wide array of characters, I suddenly found myself prompted with "You must enter a password" when trying to sign into My Netgear. I tried multiple computers, browsers, and even a password reset. But each time I got this completely bizarre message AFTER typing a password. Thinking this may have been something [redacted], I tried ridiculously short passwords and then inched my way back up until I figured out that 20 was now the new (and not advertised) maximum. Too short, frankly. But then I also learned that not all symbols remain supported after supplying a 20-character password and THEN having it respond with: "Password should only contain alphabets, numbers or these symbols !@#$%^&*()" I'm sorry... but who the [redacted] was allowed to make this change without any warning to users? Might be handy to, oh, actually have the password rules DISPLAYED on the PASSWORD CHANGE form as well, rather than play 20 questions with the form until one finds a non-objectionable (and insufficiently complicated) password.
