Best firmware for R7000P?
What is the best firmware version for R7000P? After about 1 year of using my R7000P Nighthawk with no issues, all of a sudden 5Ghz decides to drop out 5-7 times a day. The logs show nothing of in...
Currently stuck using v1.3.0.20.
I've also had to switch some critcal devices to the 2.5GhZ network as I can't risk those devices continually dropped off on the 5GhZ network.
A real shame that this Netgear product has been a waste of hundreds of dollars :(

I've tried to switch back to v1.3.0.20 on my R7000P, but the extenders dont work for some reason - they just extend the -2G and -5G, but no internet connection...So, I updated the router with the latest firmware (from Netgear downloads site), and everything works good for now.
I'll update my review after a couple weeks.
Update: I did not have any drops since updating the FW last weekend - this is a good thing.
I'll update my review next weekend.
Thanks.

Second Update: No drops since updating the FW on 10/3/20. Hopefully stays this way...I do recomend this version:
