Xr1000v1 Outdated Hardware?

[OnlyGamer]

Just picked up a xr1000v1 its hard to find updates for this router i have come across this forum after hours searching for info on net gear official forum. Is it better to upgrade to a different router? ive requested the beta firmware in hopes to see full potential of the router before i move on because it seems this is still on an old firmware. So far things seem ok besides getting attached error when opening the ping feature and the geo filter feature.

 

Error: The operation is taking longer than expected. Please briefly wait before using this Rapp.

There is an auto update function in Settings that will get you onto the latest. I've added you to the beta so you can try that if you wish.

That message can occur if you have a browser based Adblocker enabled or you're using/the browser is forcing you to connect via HTTPS to the interface. Disable those and see if it happens without error.

Thank you for info i will disable it for interface. After reading a bit on the beta forum i think its best i wait for bugs and issues to be fixed since i dont have a spare router incase things go sideways.

That's fair enough, it's there if you would like it, perhaps just monitor the topic for the moment
