We don't do dates anymore as it just leads to unnecessary pressure and also disappointment if those dates are missed. We are hoping to do a beta very soon. Quote it just leads to unnecessary pressure Quote so basic there is no pressure for a release date? Did i read somewhere that someone mentioned this has been in the makings for a year? let me guess you don't want to pull the cookie out of the oven half baked is the reason? what i have seen over the years of online gaming is that every dev of all games do this put out products half baked. The deadline is a deadline because more than likely quotas need to be met. if your a small company i get it, if you don't have the man power to do it i get it, but why all the Public Relations for a deadline geesssshhhh.. Put it out already then work on the bugs like most devs do customers when it comes to software around the globe. This is what majority of the folks want put it out. If for whatever reason it does not work then they can revert back to an earlier version/downgrade No?. Don't see why the long hold out for update and no in-between patch's for problems some are complaining about on this thread. It seems counter productive in my opinion but you know what they say about opinions lol.. i have had problems also with the router but i have never actually come on here to complain nor will i.. I love to test test test settings, have been for years with the R1..Now, the only thing i have left to test is experience going back to my old router and or going straight into my gaming console without the R1 just to see what happens while playing different shooter games.. In all my infinate wisdom "Joking of course" in which this never occurred to me since i obtained the fiber connection over the cable connection still had problems then bought into the Duma Rave ... will, report back but i won't give a deadline because that would put to much pressure on me, to produce my findings lol..

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted March 2, 2020 Administrators Share Posted March 2, 2020 Of course there is pressure, all I'm saying is we are not going to put a deadline on it that we may have to extend - we've learnt our lesson, we've provided deadlines before and had to extend them again and again. This way is more practical for us and everyone else. We'll be doing a beta as soon as possible once we have ironed out some bugs that could impact general use, if we put out a beta we're not confident in and it bricks a load of routers then that would be a nightmare. We'll do what we have done before and what works, slow rollouts until we're sure its usable and stable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can it be practical to string people along with "announcements" and "features" that end up not even on the radar for months or, again, years, without the slightest hint of progress? I don't blame you since you're the only one that keeps us somewhat updated, but I agree with the post above you, if you're trying to put out a perfect product, let me save you the trouble, you never will. But at this rate, not only are you losing the support and respect of the people that have believed in your product (myself included), but you are also, and more seriously, letting bigger manufacturers catch up to you on a niche where you guys used to be the lone players, or at least the most advanced. At the rate this is going, DumaOS will release when every other router manufacturer already has their own solution, and even if it's better than the rest, you can't seriously expect your customer base to wait forever. /endrant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While perusing these forums, I finally found out that future proper IPv6 support is not even on the table at this point. I've personally encountered where all WAN activity stops with IPv6 enabled, so them having the tickbox for it available in the settings in the first place blows my mind. No IPv6 support today for me is unacceptable. Luckily I was smart enough to get a 2 year warranty when I originally bought mine. I feel bad for people who are will be stuck with theirs, still hoping. You can't even flash a custom firmware on the damn thing while you wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We want to get fully IPv6/PPPoE/VLAN support and we're conducting testing with each of those connection methods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted March 4, 2020 Administrators Share Posted March 4, 2020 I said in that topic: Quote we'll also be working with them to get QoS working correctly with IPv6 I said it wasn't a high priority at the time (1 year ago) and I've said recently (last month) when the beta drops that we'll want feedback on IPv6 so we can make further changes if needed.

baesik Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 I'm anxious for the new release. The people working on it have hyped it up quite a bit. Being part of the beta testing would be fun and engaging. Looking forward to more news of the release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven't got an official sign up list at the moment so this is sort of an informal who's interested thing at the moment. Glad you're both interested in testing!

Master Kief Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 2 hours ago, michaeljfig said: I've actually been trying to ween away from Duma. Too many promises and no updates. I have gotten the Netgear ax3000 to try it out and I must say it's not the greatest, the same Netgear random disconnects. Also bought the Asus ROG (GT-AC2900) and it's beautiful! And not one disconnects. Lots of great features! The Ax3000 is sitting in closet with XR500 lol. But man the Asus router is sweet. As far as XR500's and 700's they are on eBay super cheap. I'll probably throw mine up there too. I might keep the ax3000 because of the wifi 6 features but not hooking it up right now. I would recommend switching to Asus. Seems like they have more updates more often. However I'm gonna hold on to the 500 just a little longer for the time being, it does have potential, just not right now. And Fraser your a good dude man, you keep us up to date on status and stuff but the boys are getting tired man. 🙂👍 If you get non GT versions of Asus routers, then you can flash AsusMerlin firmware very easily. It comes with fq_codel for bufferbloat mitigation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you mean by out of date exactly? If you're referring to the hardware then it is much older than the XR models and doesn't have AC WiFi either. If you're talking about the software then it's mostly the same as the XR routers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
