    Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.33SF

    Flashed but didn’t restore or anything. Just continued like a normal update. Network and wireless is faster. Did the same for the R9000 and It Works great. What’s the reason to restore? I have all my important dhcp reservations and don’t want to lose them.

    "Best" open source firmware for Netgear X10

    My connection is 1000/1000. On speedtest, there is no difference with netgear vs ddwrt in wired download speeds. Consistently getting 0ms ping and 950/950 on both FW. I've noticed better performance on Wireless though. DDWRT gives you the option for N only on the 2.4 band and AC only on the...

    "Best" open source firmware for Netgear X10

    I use the DDWRT forums. I think I've been going to Kong's site off a link in his sig. Last build I had was from 5/15. Very good stuff. Hardware acceleration is overrated. Netgears software probably needs it to keep up. DDWRT would be better with it but as it is, it's faster than Netgear...

    Nighthawk X10 Wireless Router Firmware Update

    The R9000 is missing the ability to manually set the MTU for IPV6. The feature is available in other Netgear routers but not the R9000. I tried to submit this as a bug but Netgear doesn't seem interested in hearing it. It's an issue considering people like me with ATT Fiber - ipv6 is over...

    Netgear Nighthawk X10 AD7200 Smart WiFi Router (R9000)

    I have an R9000. I've noticed that it doesn't perform as well as the R8500 in terms of WAN to LAN speed. I have a gigabit connection: 1000mb up and 1000mb down - on the R8500 I was getting 950 down and 950 up. On the R9000 I'm getting 850/850. Wireless performance - leaning toward the...
