It often disconnect and connect again and again. I think you need to test system stability. So I did downgrade the system 3.0.205 again. I hope you realize it soon and fix it. Welcome to the forum! Sorry to hear that, did you factory reset after upgrading to the latest firmware? That's recommended as it clears out low level code that can be left over from previous firmware.

ZachTracer Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 I tried to factory reset my router, however It won't connect to the internet. The "Netgear R2" Wifi shows up, however I cannot connect to it, the password is wrong everytime. (Default Factory password) Any help would be appreciated. Also is there anyway to download this new firmware on a bricked device? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Liam Posted February 24, 2022 Author Share Posted February 24, 2022 It sounds as though you're using an older firmware and therefore need to follow the below article to connect to the Wi-Fi network: http://support.netduma.com/support/solutions/articles/16000117883-i-ve-received-my-new-netduma-r2-but-the-wifi-password-doesn-t-work When resetting the R2, the Wi-Fi password has been changed ever so slightly, the above article will allow you work out what it's changed to.

Not as yet I'm afraid, the beta testers gave some really good feedback on the latest beta version and found a few bugs so we're just fixing some things and then we'll get a new one built. I don't really have an ETA I can provide unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might be better to confirm a specific day and time for firmware releases. IE: Check back Fridays at 10am MST Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trouble is we do our best to release firmware as soon as it passes testing. If it doesn't pass testing, it can add a lot more time on to the process. We could set a date once testing has been passed, but that would essentially involve making you all wait longer for no reason. Appreciate the feedback, it's good food for thought.

I've always understood why you guys don't give dates. However a specific day & time would give people who are really busy and don't have time to stop into the forums a few times a week a chance to come by at least once and check if firmware has been released. I think this would be a good idea for not only this upcoming firmware but all future firmware releases. Honestly you don't have to just choose one day. You could say Tuesdays and Fridays 10:00 a.m. come and check those are the days will release firmware if one's available. This would also get people who normally don't check the forums to stop by once or twice a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted March 9, 2022 Administrators Share Posted March 9, 2022 I can definitely appreciate where you're going with that, the only thing I'd be concerned with is if we say that then people will get their expectations up and then how many Tues/Fridays will go by without a version before people get frustrated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TODDzillaInLA Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 LOL what am i reading???

Hope everyone is having a great day 👍 I don't just speak for myself when I make forum post like this. This is also coming from my YouTube community asking for months at a time what's going on. There are easier ways for NetDuma to handle firmware releases so they don't get bombarded on the forums, Twitter, discord etc. I'm sure answering the question of when firmware is coming over and over and over is annoying. I've outlined some solutions on a video that will be out Friday. Even if the NetDuma team doesn't implement any of mine hopefully after listening to the video they'll come up with something themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope everyone is having a great day 👍 You're kidding right? This router has been the worst product that I have bought in a while! the fact we paid a premium price for a product that a 40-dollar Walmart router outperform when it comes to speed and Wi-Fi rang is unexpectable. you should be humbler when you respond most of us who had this router for about a year now been dealing with problem after problem! And to correct you this firmware isn't fine as you say nice try, there are countless people having trouble with it since it released and I'm sure none of them are lol at their situation. Crazy thing is how long it takes for us to get a firmware when we were told that we would receive them fast because of some new method y'all came up with. Only reason a lot of probably bought this router is due to the fact we would get faster update compared to the nighthawk but must have just been marketing. I tell you what I doubt I would ever waste my money on another netduma product nothing but empty promises. I do have a lot of respect for Fraser as he is trying hard to fix problems that are manufacturing issues, this router should have been recalled. so next time you try and under mind one of us think about the countless people that are and have been dealing with these issues and paid for a product that should be sold at 70 dollars at best! We're tired and frustrated and we have the right to be it taking way too long to give us a stable product that we should have had at lunch! hope you're having a great day 👍 Oh and forgot the countless internet drops.

Best router i ever used!!! and before you reply back with some lame response i have tried $100 dollar to the most expensive one i tried was a little over $800 U.S I have tweeted and left threads on other manufactures and have never got a reply back from a official staff member. And most people need firmware updates like its a drug addiction. Something can be flawless and little Timmy or Billy will be on reddit (when a update dropping) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is only so much improvement we can do really so it's probably best to keep the NG in AP mode for the moment GBDJG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Hey guys, Lew here with a bit of an essay, but hopefully it's useful to hear. A lot of the team here have watched this video and had a real discussion about how we communicate. I want to preface this by saying that this isn't a canned response. We know that your thoughts about this situation are held by more than just yourself, and it's something we're self-aware of. The good news is that we're looking at a much more robust way of ensuring reliable release times, meaning you'll be able to rest easy with clearer expectations for firmware deliveries. There’ll be less confusion about releases, and more certainty about what’s on the horizon and how far away it is. As is so often the case, there’s bad-news-that-comes-with-the-good-news. With so much work underway, it’s difficult to say exactly when this change will come, meaning I have to use the dreaded ‘soon’ for the time being. Once we’ve reached the level we need to be at on the platforms we’re working on, we can move forward with more transparent comms. We’ll start as we mean to go on, too – when this change comes in, we’ll set expectations clearly and make sure everyone is on the same page. I get that from a customer point of view there’s nothing fun about uncertainty, but I hope it helps to know there’s one thing you can be certain about today: we will be fixing this wider issue.
