Re: New - XR700 v1.0.1.10 Firmware Available
I fully agree coming from an Asus router which firmware had loads of bugs but at least they sent out updated firmware. However the apps pulled me for this router and for the High price tag i think the updates are very poor

I agree. I mean a dozen of us complained about the horrible UI in the .10 firmware and here we are 4 months later there is a hotfix (not even a real release) that is posted that does not mention this being fixed! Hopefully it fixes the issue (I am still on .08) but if not, five months for a new FW update which doesn't even fix issues identified? LAME.
I guess Netgear doesn't care about customers who spend good money to buy their premium products. I feel like this gaming line was just a cash grab for them and we are left holding the bag.

Takes time to develop FW. Seen it take 6, 9 to 12 months in between releases. I'd rather not rush router Mfr to release FW haphazardly. Be patient. Let NG and Duma do there work. For users interensted, sign up for there beta program. Last version I loaded of beta improved the UI a lot. Try it out.

Guys,
The latest beta version improved the horrible UI. You can sign up to the beta program here:
https://community.netgear.com/t5/Nighthawk-Pro-Gaming-Routers/XR700-Beta-Firmware/m-p/1760800#M11125
Note: Make sure you perform a factory reset right after you update your firmware.

1.0.1.18 does not fix the horrible UI. The UI works for a day or two then the QOS, Device Manager, and Network monitor tabs don't load (no matter how long you wait!!!) with an eventual message "The R-App has not loaded yet, please try again in a minute." Also, large chart in lower left of dashboard tab does not load. It's actually WORSE than the 1.0.1.10 release!!!
Unbelievable!!!

I got the exact same results testing 1.0.1.18. "The R-App has not loaded yet, please try again in a minute." Also, large chart in lower left of dashboard tab does not load. It's actually WORSE than the 1.0.1.10 release!!!
Netgear/Netduma is a failure. I've never seem a Company take so long to provide a fix espeically for such and expensive piece of Hardware that is suppose to be their "Flagship". Look how long this has been out and no attempt to provide a working verified fix, this belongs in the "Hall of Shame".

Re: New - XR700 v1.0.1.10 Firmware Available
They actually said they were aware of it and working on it back when many of us identified the issue with 1.0.1.10 release. In this thread there is mention of the team aware of the issues and working on it back on March 23rd!!! Here we are in September, 6 month later and they finally release a beta firmware with the SAME issue!!!
This router, and Netgear in particular, indeed belong in the Hall of Shame!!!
