What really are the actual bandwidth numbers the router capable of pushing out with traffic shaping rules enabled? Not a guesstimate please. I'm sure that you have a way to run iPerf or something similar.

Is IPv6 100% fully functional or does it break QoS or other features like it does on the XR500?

Does it support file sharing and print sharing over USB?

I'm shocked that such basic info about neither the software or the hardware is provided.

People must have a ton of disposable income just to throw at an item they have no clue about.

I was thinking the same , very little info given . With launch coming in a few weeks , such info should be available

that being said , is the new duma 2.0 more tech advanced than the nighthawk XR500 or XR700? The specs state a dual thread processor what is the GHZ?

880

Makes you wonder why such key specs are not provided beforehand, so that people pre-ordering the device are not just setting themselves up for a disappointment.

Netduma is not a Sony or  a Microsoft. They haven't been around for long enough and they don't exactly have a great track record so far to warrant a pre-order without knowing EXACTLY what you are paying for.

I guess we can always wait post launch to find out, when the YouTube shills will start posting their "reviews" that are totally not sponsored or biased.

There was output numbers mentioned in a topic in the CoD section. Basicly 890 mbit QoS off and 860 mbit QoS on.

It would be nice if they would list how much the thing can route on the product's page along with the rest of the specs.

Some results for you:

QoS On:
Download 860Mbits/sec
Upload 821Mbits/sec

QoS Off:
Download 890Mbits/sec
Upload 833Mbits/sec

It does work with QoS etc and we're continuing to ensure they work harmoniously. 

Not currently no but may utilize this more in the future.

The XR routers do have more powerful hardware, so if that is what you're after then would recommend those but if you want a router that is optimized for DumaOS and will receive updates quicker then the R2 would be a good choice.

Thanks. Would you by any chance know the status of the IPv6 and the functions of the USB port?

Since these are gaming routers and most likely 99% of people will have UPnP turned ON, do these routers ship with the CallStranger already patched and mitigated?

ipv6 works perfect with qos,

So far ipv6 works when connecting via PPPoE, Does not work when behind another router, as that router has no way of passing the right info to the r2.

I was shocked. others on the r2 beta also enquired about specs, and also no such information was on my box packaging, maybe this has changed since that feedback was given. I hope so.

I think there will be people who buy because they do have the money to throw at it. Some will think its brilliant some wont.

Thanks. Like everyone else, I'm just curious about this new product.

I got burned by the XR500 dud and got rid of it.

You know how it goes:

Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice...

Sorry, I should have been clearer. 

IPv6: It does work with QoS etc and we're continuing to ensure they work harmoniously. 
USB: Not currently no but may utilize this more in the future.

I will double check with the team regarding the vulnerability status and get back to you.

Thanks. Is Callstranger mitigated out of the box or will it be patched later?

Nice!

 

I am not that familiar with the platform, but assuming these results are from QoS is being done "in hardware", are their alternate QoS variants like fq_codel thats done in software?

oh lord dont get me started on this XR500 . I have huge respect for everone at Netduma , but ever since the purchase of this router ive had nothing but problems. Software going out , drop in connection hard wired and wireless, map not loading ,  List goes on and on.

It's actually all via the software/firmware, no hardware acceleration - we've done A LOT of optimization. No alternative QoS algorithms are available.

What is your Netgear community name? I'll try and get you boosted up the list.

@Frasier , if you can do that for me that would be great! My handle is killer65malibu on Netgear community.

We developed our own in house solutions for these features!

So "Preemptive" is coming back? Otherwise what you said is a bit misleading.

No, there is no option to change the QoS algorithm. It's the same as the Anti-Bufferbloat that has been available on the R1 .29 beta and the XR routers.

Hi Fraser, earlier in the forum you mentioned with QoS features on the Netduma R2 can reach 300-400mbps.
 

I was just checking in on the forum and can see in this post you’ve said when testing the below results were achieved:

 QoS On:
Download 860Mbits/sec
Upload 821Mbits/sec

Am I correct in assuming I could expect these speeds on the Netduma R2 as well with QoS on of course internet line speed dependant. I just wanted to double check I am not missing something as this is a massive jump over the prior estimated speeds with QoS? Thanks

That's right I did, good catch. Initially I was told it was 300-400 but then we went back and tested it and the latest figures I mentioned are more accurate of what you can expected. That's absolutely right yes. Do keep in mind this is in a lab environment so it may differ in a residential household environment.

Recently upgraded to giganet 940/880 speed. Does this mean router cannot max out my connection?
