Alright that shouldn't be too hard to do fingers crossed!

Yea no kidding I be thinking Netgear is going under just because of the lack of support from them and no I think I forgot how to do that 😅

Just had to restart the router this DHCP issue has been getting worse it seems every 2 weeks or so I have to turn the router on and off to have Internet again

Alright sounds good and no problem I'm on android I have a Samsung S22 Ultra if that helps

Yea it works that perfectly fine it was just the app but it could be that I use starlink for my Internet too so ping could naturally be an issue from time to time.

Yes sir I did I just figured it was because it was a still an early build for the app everything else works as intended for me

So far so good only issue I've come across was not router related but related to the app itself when using the ping optimizer it just loads forever.

👏👏👏👏👏 about time! Although I am a little late but once I'm home from work I'll be updating to this to help with feedback!

Yea no I get all that. what I was really hoping for when I first joined the xr500 beta the beginning of the year or so was that the beta firmware wasn't device specific between the xr450 and 500 since they're the same hardware basically minus the radios. I assumed the update process would be able to tell what hardware and install what was appropriate for that said hardware. Once that didn't work I used to check in here everyday for weeks until like 3 months ago where I check once a month if that. I'd watch other people ask the same questions with different devices as to when their firmeware was coming. I've seen someone say don't know who that you guys changed up the process to make this faster yet we're only a few months away from a year and so far I haven't seen anything move faster. Because from my understanding at some point all the devices were going to be all on the same firmware and from that point on it'll be a straightforward process with all the devices when it comes to updates instead of what we have now. That was supposed to start with dumaos 3.0 we're now into 3.3 so someone has to understand how frustrating it is to have to deal with bugs for this long. These routers are going on 4 or 5 years old and Netgear hasn't done a refresh like Asus has in the same timeframe. Nor have they even talked about a next gen gaming router. All they advertise mostly now is the Orbi WiFi mesh routers so I guess now you can understand my frustration and maybe others as well. You guys even had to stop the update page due to probably getting behind on the updates idk if that's changed because I haven't looked since it became a month old as to when it was last updated months ago. So yea unfortunately I've been losing hope and considering looking at a different gaming router as my only solution to my problems.

Oh I'm fully aware Netgear still sells these routers with issues that has nothing to do with netduma but they have made it more bearable with the updates for the xr500 routers which have the exact same hardware minus an extra radio frequency

Unfortunately we've seen that being said for a while now. So how true is this compared to all the other times this year when someone has asked for an update?

It's getting pretty close to a year or so when the xr500 got their beta. What about the xr450? Is it really that hard to have a beta for this hardware too? Where's the love? Is it none existent? Should I just give up and get a different gaming router that has better community support?

I had this problem last year before the start of the NFL season and pure VPN didn't work nor did trying the advanced settings but then again I didn't know what I was doing so I stopped trying lol

@crunkjuice1yea from what I gathered is that its a really small group that works on these and that's probably why it takes so long which is unfortunate but there ain't much we can do unless we went to college to learn what they do and work for them lol. This kinda reminds me of SpaceX and Starlink there's only a small group that works on them so it takes a minute to either receive a terminal or to receive feedback from support.

I feel like a drug addict checking every day to see if there's any changes I want to try this update on starlink so bad lol

Yea I don't think that's game related

I'd like to join the beta testing as well if possible.
