Cannot Download Latest Firmware For RBKE953S
Is anyone else having issues downloading.85 firmware from the the Netgear site for the 950 series? The 960 firmware downloads just fine but the 950 just gives a script error when trying to download it. Also webgui and app says I’m up to date currently on .82 firmwareRBRE960 DHCP issue?
I have an RBRE960 with three RBSE960 units. Two are wired, and one is connected wirelessly. I’m experiencing major issues with my devices losing connection to the network. My iPhone suddenly drops the connection and gets a 169.254 address. The same happens with my Apple TV, Mac, etc. To fix it, I have to forget the network on the device and reconnect. I have the latest firmware installed, v7.2.7.15. What could be causing this, and how can I resolve it? Thanks in advance!Printer behind ORBI not found
Dear friends, I have a standard configuration, with a WiFi modem from my Telco provider in the basement, and an (RBR50) ORBI access point (set-up as Router) in my kitchen. Both have a different SSID. All works well, but my Epson app can't find my printer, even if I give it its IP address. I read somewhere that the app sends an "mDNS/Bonjour" message to the printer(s) on the home-network, but that the ORBI might block this message ? How can I fix this ? Thanks for your help & advise !Scam email just wanted to share
I got an email tonight from netgear @ email. netgear. com remove the spaces (first red flag). It has a super phishy looking reply to as well, that had an html and long string of numbers in the reply... When I signed up, emails came from a do not reply at netgear (dot) com email Even clicking on from in the old email, they show "mailto:do_not_reply@netgear.com" It says "We are reaching out to inform you that service updates for your WIRELESS-N ROUTER W/USB BNDL have ended." (Second red flag because that's not what I bought.) It never names my "Nighthawk AX1800 4-Stream Dual-Band WiFi 6 Router(RAX9)" including serial number like the original emails do. Of course it has a link to go buy an updated version, (Red flag #3) and all of the links on the scammy looking email are to click.e. netgear. com NOT ONE of them is to just plain netgear (dot) com like every link in the original email. (Red flag #4) Also, they're almost a month late, because I registered my Nighthawk on 11/13/24. (red flag #5) BUT I did change my email address last summer and they have the new email address. So I am guessing this is this a SCAM because this is NOT listed in the End of Service section of their website. I tried to report it to Netgear via email or the stupid AI thing but I didn't get anywhere with either, but I thought I would at least report it here to save others the hassle. This email looked EXTREMELY legit. But I do find it interesting that it had my correct email (after changing it from the original). I am guessing Netgear heavily "shares" my data and some of those that buy it are scammers.MS70 randomly dropping
I recently (around August) got the MR70, MS70 combo mesh system new and it’s worked nearly perfectly overtime I would get occasional drops not from the router but the satellite which I tolerated until this month where it’s become unbearable no matter what I’m doing my Ethernet drops out completely and the light on the satellite turns orange to give an idea of my set up there’s the room that the router/modem is in between that is the dining room and then the satellite is in my room connected to my computer through Ethernet I’ve done everything I can find to do. -removed ddos reports from the logs -disconnected Ethernet and connected via WiFi instead So I assumed I was too far away from the router and put the satellite closer and connected via WiFi. I dropped and walked out to see that there was the orange light again at this point it’s unplugged I hope I can save it because the speeds have been excellent but I cannot stand the constant dropsWired Devices not showing on Orbi App
I have two devices (Playstations) that I want to pause at certain times. I can do this when they connect to WIFI, but I purposely purchased an additional satellite so I could hardwire the two Playstations to achieve better speeds. However, hardwiring them into the satellite means they dont appear in the device list and available for me to add into a group under the parent controls. Any ideas to fix this?Can LAN interface of RS100 be set to a public IP address?
I have obtained a /29 range of public IP addresses from my ISP. That /29 network resides on the LAN interface of the cable router/modem/whatever you want to call it. At the moment I am using a Zyxel router for the job and it works well- it has no issue with letting me set the LAN IP address to a public IP address- but for some reason it limits my upload speed to <100Mb/s where it's supposed to be 200Mb/s. I tried a Sagemcom device as an alternative. It has no problem hitting the 200Mb/s upload speed BUT it will not allow me to set the LAN interface IP to a public IP address (45.11.x.x) - it says 'Invalid IP address'. Before I go to the bother of purchasing an RS100 (and then having to return it if it doesn't work), I am trying to find out whether it will allow me to set the LAN IP address to a public IP address. Any advice would be much appreciated!IPV6 no connection RBR 850
I called my ISP and they confirmed I have an ipv6 connection available from them on a fiberoptic connection to my Orbi RBR 850 which will not transmit ipv6 to my network and when I run an online ipv6 test it confirms not connected. RBR 850 firmware v7.2.7.15, I just read on the netgear site this firmware is a problem for ipv6 and to set back the firmware to a previous version. I have checked my router settings many times in the advance ipv6 settings, currently set to DHCP any thoughts from anyone who has experienced problems with ipv6 connection issues would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,
