I use codex to analyze the source code The firmware uses several overlapping state systems, including the NETGEAR config database, Broadcom NVRAM, temporary files, and hardware partitions. Features depend on multiple settings such as: ap_mode i_opmode modetect_state mesh_support mesh_created When these values become inconsistent, unexpected behaviour occurs. Confirmed Issues - AP mode automatically enables hidden 5GHz and 6GHz Mesh backhaul networks even when no satellite is configured. - The device can report conflicting states: i_opmode=apmode modetect_state=Router mesh_support=1 - /etc/init.d/br-mode uses $CONIFG instead of $CONFIG, breaking the intended AP-mode check. - Bridge-mode startup and shutdown use different state files: /tmp/enable_br_mode /tmp/br_mode_enable264Views1like14CommentsBE 17000 router, using custom DNS but Nighthawk adds 1.1.1.1?
I'm trying to set up custom DNS servers to add protection (opendns) but night hawk keeps adding 1.1.1.1 as a third server, which seems to be circumventing the whole privacy setup. Why is nighthawk adding it's own DNS servers and how do i stop this??? I do NOT want that dns server.83Views0likes2CommentsI have a RS600 that drops WiFi signal daily like 4-5 times every day
I have a RS600 that drops WiFi signal daily like 4-5 times every day since purchased a month ago. My old X10 never dropped signal. I have two EXS27 extenders around my home and will unplug those to see if that's the issue. I've read disable IPV6 so I'll try that also. BEEN A HORRIBLE PURCHASE FOR $500 SO FAR...

my netgear 12 router has a pulsing red light. the light icon is a circle above a line above two circles. I have power cycled both the router and the modem, same situation. I have accomplished a router factory reset and the light is still pulsing red. I checked internet speed and it is above 600 mb so that is good. I have reseated all cables on the router. I haven't contacted the internet provider yet since I don't know what the pulsing red light is telling me. Thanks for any help.174Views0likes6CommentsHave 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?
