48 TopicsAccess Control Shows Device Both Connected & Not Connected
My RS300 Router's Access Control shows many devices that are connected and working properly as also listed as being allowed but disconnected! How can this be? If I remove the device from the "allowed but disconnected" section it then appears in the connected section as "BLOCKED". Is there a fix for this? It's obviously a bug in the router software or the firmware. Firmware Version: 1.2.7.2 Thanks, Jerry190Views0likes9CommentsStarlink Router
I bought a Netgear Nighthawk RS300 to be used with Starlink. I viewed a video that showed that you may not use the Starlink router and connect your own router directly to the Starlink power base and thus not use the Starlink router. So can I connect the RS300 router directly to Starlink and not connect the RS300 to the Starlink router and use the Bypass mode in the Starlink app.? Has anyone used this option of connecting your own router directly to Starlink and not using the Starlink router?246Views0likes4CommentsHave you seen this about Netgear RS Routers? Pretty interesting and maybe scary or even dangerous!
Supposedly there is a Backdoor to our Rs Series routers by sending magic packets? This makes me nervous as I work and live behind a RS700 in my house. It sounds pretty serious?

just got a rs300. it is in AP mode. the main network works fine. created a guest network on wifi 5g using wpa2 and wpa3. the ssid randomly shows up and when it does clients can’t join. also created an iot network using 2.4g only. the ssid shows up and can connect to it however devices on iot network cant access internet or ping the local ips. using firmware 1.0.6.16. any suggestions?Solved191Views0likes5CommentsWi-Fi ping spikes every 10 seconds.
Ping jumps from around 5 ms to 100 ms every 10 seconds. The issue is reproducible only when connected via Wi-Fi. When connected to the router with an Ethernet cable, the problem does not occur. Resetting the router did not help. Steps to reproduce: 1. Connect to the router via Wi-Fi. 2. Start pinging any external service. 3. Observe the ping behavior.380Views0likes22CommentsRouter reset does not fully restore all settings while reset
Resetting the router does not clear all settings and does not change the router name. This leads to a situation where the user scans the QR code on the router, but the phone cannot connect to the router. The reason is that the app expects one set of credentials, while the router is actually using different credentials. ==== Can't change router's name because it then cause painful steps to restore the router in case it's needed224Views0likes11CommentsRS300 & CityFibre - IDNet
Hello, Can’t seem to find conclusive evidence if the Netgear Nighthawk RS300 BE9300 will work with IDNet on a CityFibre connection. IDNet mentions VLAN 911 tagging but posts on the web seem to suggest the Netgear VLAN tagging implementation doesn’t cover the WAN port. Any feedback greatly appreciated. thanks162Views0likes1CommentDetermine IPv6 for a connected device
Greetings, I'm installing a new Ethernet device (it's a printer) and I made a slight oopsie. I disabled IPv4 in the web admin panel, because my network is 100% IPv6. Unfortunately I was connected via IPv4 to the web admin panel! Now I'm trying to determine the device's IPv6 assigned address(es) which should be at least one link-local and at least one routable: Surely the Nighthawk admin panels know this. I have access control enabled and I made sure to unblock/allow the device as soon as it showed up. So it had no connectivity problems and should be reachable over IPv6, but that seems not to be the case. Where in the Nighthawk RS300 admin panels can I find/determine IPv6 addresses of connected devices? Thanks!278Views0likes8Comments
