Reupgrade the firmware via that URL that you can access, then see if it works after that please

That is normal because u are rebooting the router so it disconnects from WiFi, after the router is back online it reconnects to the WiFi and refresh the page

@Netduma Fraser I haven't tried that yet but I will when I'm home next.

@Mobel  That makes sense but it's a bit confusing. I was expecting something like the web gui where when you reboot it tells you it'll take 3-4 minutes letting you know it's rebooting. The error message just looks like something went wrong with the reboot command (until you figure out you don't have Internet anymore).

[Boulou]

Just tried twice with reboot and browser cache cleared

 

Still stuck on the "DumaOS is loading..." page

[Mobel]

It works for me on both R2 and XR700 when I reboot I get the error command but when router is back online and connected to WiFi I just refresh the page and im back in 

Using Android 12 on phone or Firefox on pc/laptop

Factory reset then wait 4 minutes before attempting to access and see if it works then please

[Boulou]

Already done that... 

[Fuzy]

Is there any reason you no longer have access, the XR is behind a main router (ISP) or other devices?

Have you tried restarting all the machines upstream?

You are at Free (ISP)! How did you configure your freebox?

There isn't much else I can advise, reboots, resets and re-upgrading are really the only options and waiting at least 5 minutes after each one has been done should eventually allow you to gain access. Try a few more times, if not may be best to go back to the public version for now.

[Boulou]

I think I'll do that

That can be resolved by a cloud update, I'll get the team to do that. What else is missing?

Good to know thank you, I'll pass that onto the team to take a look.

Not at the moment, I'm pushing Alex to do a lot of cloud stuff at the moment so think he is a bit swamped in that regard! I will remind him again though.

Hi!

I have been waiting for the Wireguard support but can't read that's included in this Beta release. There have been some mentioning a couple years back that you will add it to the XR series because you already have it in the R2.

What is the actual status?

It's up to Netgear really but I will ask the team to see what is happening with it.

Is there way to mass delete. Seems like a year or two back this was a thing coming? Id like to be able to "just" delete all the unnamed.dev devices. But not "all offline" devices as just because there are offline does not mean they are invalid etc.. I have learned the android and ios devices on my network consistenlty spoof thier identity per say ;-). I love the idea and the feature but not on my home network. Instead of sitting here once a month for any clicking the device and hitting delete and rinse and repeat.

You can delete all offline devices from the Device Manager menu  icon, if they reconnect then they'll just reappear but in your scenario looks like a lot are unused

[BSilverthorn]

Unfortnately it appears to also remove the good devices that are named at the same time. If my TV is off or the APPLE-TV, it removes those as well. Would love to just be able to tag the ones I want deleted and have it do a mass remove.

They should be named when they connect back, best way to avoid it overall is to give them reserved IPs in LAN > DHCP

[BSilverthorn]

Yep, I do that now, I run my own DHCP server. I have less lockups or responvies issues wtih XR700 using a standalone solution for DHCP, it seems to ignore the names from the DHCP / DNS internal server when they reconnect. So I name most them manual in devices, but a bit of undertaking at times. I have exported my DNS records and will try to import that into the devices window.

The 3.3.363 bin killed my WiFi on the XR700.  I have not been able to recover it.

I just got word on the new bin release and updated mine today.  Everything looked fine initially.  Did all the speed test and checked all the basic settings.  As I was clicking through to see all the new settings, suddenly a small window popped up and mentioned some illegal command even though I have not changed anything.  It froze.  I reset both my computer and the router.  Then I noticed that that 2.5/5 wifi lights are dimly lit, perhaps 50% intensity and flashing even when the router was initially turned on and stay in same state.  Usually they remain off until wifi is established.  Then I noticed there is no wifi. The wifi setting page is blank. The dashboard showed the wifi is disabled.  But the advanced wireless showed that wifi is enabled.  I tried resetting with the paperclip through the reset hole.  Nothing changed afterwards.
Then I downgrade the FW to a version 20 with telnet and went in to reset the NVRAM to factory condition.  I went through all the new router setup but wifi still will not come back.  I have also upgraded back to 3.3.363 and same wifi problem.   I tried the wifi button on the router but did not do anything.  I went in the setup and changed the wifi enable off and back on.  It did nothing.   The wifi lights remained to be about ~50% intensity but not flashing, and the AD light is at full intensity.  The radio is not on.  No SSID detected as the radio is not transmitting.   I have spent a few hours and cannot get the wifi back to work.  It is kind of a bummer after waiting this long and then the new bin half bricked my router without wifi.  Now I have to go back to my R9000.  I actually have another XR700 but I wouldn’t touch that one.  
Can anyone help?

It's not necessarily the beta, we've seen it with the public versions as well and only on the 700, try this:

While connected via ethernet, disable WiFi radios entirely from the Advanced WiFi settings, reboot the router from the interface, wait 2 minutes, access, enable WiFi radios, apply, reboot from the interface, wait 2 minutes then see if they appear.

I tried it. Still no wifi.  It only turns off and on the lights at the 2 buttons at the end.  The 2.4 and 5 wifi lights are still dim the same way.  iwconfig tells me that there is no wireless extensions.  Can you find out and tell me what is the router shell command to manually turn on and off the wi-fi ?  I know this for the R9000, same HW, but apparently it is different for the Duma OS.

Also note that the antenna red lights are on even though there is no wifi.
