R8000 Firmware
Per NetGear social media, we are supposed to suggest the below idea here. My idea, as crazy as it sounds, is that Netgear continue to support their R8000 devices. I know, sounds insane but hear me out. People spent hundreds of dollars on a product featuring the "latest tri-band wifi" technology. Now instead of leaving them hanging with a big security exploit for two months, device issues and a feature release stall, Netgear should develop a new robust firmware. Ideally it would be one that wouldn't encourage them to go out and try questionable 3rd party firmwares. That means, it should be competitive (feature wise) with those 3rd parties while fixing ongoing issues highlighted in the forums. Benefits: 1. Happy customers who don't feel like they wasted money and are not stranded with a reletively up to date tech, that lacks manufacture support, features and security. 2. See #1 above. I think it deserves reiteration. Facts 1. product saw less than 18 months of firmware releases and developer support. 2. Nearly 9 months have past since the last firmware update (as of 8/31/2016). 3. June 2016: security notice suggested disabling of features due to security exploit. 4. 2 month later, June 2016 security exploit is still unpatched, leaving customers exposed. 5. There are no Nighthawk products listed on the NetGear EoL page, including the R8000. 6. The product is still available through online and big-box retailers.
Kann nicht zugreifen auf GS108Ev2 Garantie
Hallo, ich habe Switch Typ Netgear GS108Ev2. Leider aber funktionieren nicht korrekt, kann nicht zugreifen, immer falsches Passwort, aber oft zurückgesetzt (Knopf "Factory Defaults" lange drücken). Auch probieren viele Computer mit "ProSafe Plus Utlility", oft gar nicht finden oder sagen falsches Passwort obwohl eingeben "password". Probieren auch andere Versionen von "ProSafe Plus Utlility" aber nicht funktionieren. Habe Internet gefunden Netgear Garantieaustausch RMA und Fehler beschrieben. Support kontaktieren Switch registriert. Aber sagen kein Chat Support oder Email weil gekauft 2014, nur anrufen. Aber kein Telefon, ich gehörlosen, kann kein Telefon. Immer nur "Rufen Sie uns an" aber kann ich nicht. Switch kaputt aber schade. Was kann ich machen? Weiß nicht wie ohne Anrufen Garantie. Danke.Orbi appears to be corrupted by auto update, won't boot
Hi, So, I have an Orbi Router that's worked fine since purchase in 12/16, but had a problem in the early morning of 5/4/17, and now crashes on boot. I can see the DHCP processes start to vend IPs on the LAN ports, but it crashes before it can start the WiFi process, with a blue then red ring light sequence. Yes, I've done the factory default, with no change. Is there a procedure to recover from a corrupted firmware load ? Also, I have the situation where the S/N for my unit was registered, and then the unit was returned. So far, support appears incapable of dealing with this. though I've emailed by purchase receipt. What's the most effective way to solve these 2 problems ? Thanks, Paul MooreWhy do you provide such horrible support and software/firmware?
For a netgear moderator to answer. Do you guys even care about the customer base? Your software is horrible and you do nothing about it. You don't seem to pay attention to or listen to feedback. Support options for you guys is awful as well. Would love to hear a response.
