iFrog Pleased to read things went well. The issue about the update not being found on the router has been mentioned before in other threads and it was the same for me. I downloaded the update directly from the Netgear site to my desktop and uploaded the file from there directly to the router.
I'd recommend disabling the auto update feature if you haven't already done so.
You cannot uncheck the 'Enable Routers PIN' in Wireless settings. Well you can uncheck the box, but when you hit the apply button, it just checks itself again, so a bug there.
If the NTP server loses sync, you'll get a warning in red at the top of the admin page, it's got typos in it and looks sloppy. Needs sorting.
I split my networks up and I run Guest Networks on both 2.4 and 5g. Keeps things in order for me.
I find the Nighthawk App useful, but I won't be carrying out any firmware updates using it.
Hope things go well with the new firmware.

I've run into wireless speed issues with my phone, (iPhone 7 Plus) but i'm not sure if it's a router problem as it's the only device that does it. And , the mobile speeds were always worse even with the airport than wired, or even larger devices such as a laptop.
i have about 400 Mbps down and 23 up on wired Devices download goes to about 480 down as long as on gigabit. the iphone is connected to the 5Ghz channel as well as the ipad and macbook pro, while the iMac is hard wired. According to the speedtest app the iphone only gets about 40 down but the normal 20 to 23 up, the ipad is about 370 to 390 down and the same upload. So with all things considdered only the phone seems to have a really big issue with wireless.
