davemarsden132 Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 I don't think I have had this many errors with anything so expensive in my life before 😂.. SO on DumaOS3 - The WIFI didnt work, eventually restarted enough that the WIFI worked but my PC didn't show as online only offline and then couldn't be added to the GeoFilter SO I restarted it again, then the WIFI stopped working... and then the device manager showed my PC fine but the WIFI didn't work... so I put the old software on and updated to .38 or what ever it is... Now when I try goto GeoFliter or Device Manager it just says the R-App not loading please try again in a few minutes... to which in a few minutes the same thing happens.  I would really like this to just work... But it seems when 2 things work something else dosent...  Ive basically got the choice... No WIFI but connects to geofilter etc or No geofilter but WIFI or WIFI And Connection but no device manager.  This is just mental how it can not work... I might have to go back to buying cheap Chinese shit of aliexpress again at least the stuff worked for a year >.< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 31, 2021 Administrators Share Posted January 31, 2021 It is the first iteration of the beta for the XR700 so issues are expected, I would ask that you try and post the feedback there so we and NG can take a look at issues. Did you factory reset after you upgraded? If not please do that first. If you did then in System Information in the Rapp panel options change the number of retries from 3 to 5 and reboot the router, see if it loads properly then.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 31, 2021 Administrators Share Posted January 31, 2021 Since you downgraded you need to factory reset to get rid of old low level code from the beta that isn't compatible with the stable version and you should be good.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 31, 2021 Administrators Share Posted January 31, 2021 How are you factory resetting, using the interface or the physical button, if the button how long are you holding it for? What non beta version are you on now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davemarsden132 Posted February 12, 2021 Author Share Posted February 12, 2021 I use both methods. Have tried both... Normally i use the Pin in the back of the router button method!  So reset the router recently, worked fine again... Come on today, R-APP will not load. I have reverted back to .20 software due to the latest + dumaos 3.0 not allowing me to connect my WIFI devices to the unit.  I even bought a new XR700 to try that, still same...! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted February 21, 2021 Administrators Share Posted February 21, 2021 Okay don't worry about that. Instead upgrade the router using the TFTP method to the same firmware and then do a factory reset. This bypasses the boot processes and any issues there to give you the freshest install possible. https://kb.netgear.com/000059634/How-to-upload-firmware-to-a-NETGEAR-router-using-Windows-TFTP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davemarsden132 Posted February 21, 2021 Author Share Posted February 21, 2021 Nope that didn't work either  says  'tftp' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.  That in my CMD file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted February 21, 2021 Administrators Share Posted February 21, 2021 Did you follow the guide linked at the bottom of that page to enable TFTP on your PC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davemarsden132 Posted February 23, 2021 Author Share Posted February 23, 2021 I got it working in the end not as method above but by just master resetting and setting up about 3 times in total to get it to work. I am still on old software though and really want to upgrade to new but cant.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Liam Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 OK, well done. In that case I'd just suggest keeping an eye on the XR700 beta forum for updates if the current version isn't stable enough for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
