That said, @Dilly Dilly made a great suggestion. You can try to upload the latest DumaOS firmware using TFTP. You'll have to figure it out on your own but it should be quite easy using this guide: https://kb.netgear.com/000059633/How-to-upload-firmware-to-a-NETGEAR-router-using-TFTP-client Mercenary 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercenary Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 What even is a TFTP client does it restore the original firmware Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't going to suggest this as beinng a moderator it is not my place to advise. It is a fairly straight forward process so long as you are somewhat network savvy just in case you run into any snags. Mercenary 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercenary Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Thank you very much I appreciate this for helping me I'll have to do this later tonight when everyone's asleep there's a few people that use the internet and they're going to wonder why I'm doing this they're not going to understand they're not much of a tech savvy person if I don't know how to use that YouTube has some set up wizards sometimes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The link that Alex posted will fully guide you through it. I suggest you have that page open on another browser to refer to while you are going through the process or print the instructions out. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercenary Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 does my computer have to be hardwired directly to the router or no because my computer is somewhere else in the same room and it's really heavy it's a pretty old PC but it runs the latest software it's the Windows 10 but it's a 2013 PC it's not too old it can play some new games but the graphics card isn't letting me play every new game The graphics card is a G-Force GTX 750 TI 2 vram DDR3 32 gigs of RAM almost I have 20 gigs of RAM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Netduma Alex Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Nobody was online to reply... Anyway it looks like you're making progress, you just need to follow the guide to the letter.

Newfie Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 If you wanted a router with third party stuff on the R7800 would have been best and Voxels firmware and a few others that add stuff. Cracking WiFi too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
