Nighthawk R7000

That's a Broadcom device, wifi will be shit, at best. https://openwrt.org/toh/netgear/r7000

Dein „Router“ hat kein Modem verbaut. Das Modem „übersetzt“ sozusagen DSL zu Ethernet. Viele Heimanwender-Geräte wie FRITZ!Boxen oder die Speedports der Telekom haben ein DSL-Modem integriert. Das Problem hierbei ist einfach, dass die Geräte umgangssprachlich alle „Router“ genannt werden, obwohl das

Read the wiki entry. But you can see in firmware-selector the hw used, on a high level, in this case bxm53xx. https://firmware-selector.openwrt.org/?version=SNAPSHOT&target=bcm53xx%2Fgeneric&id=netgear_r7000 Might want to have a look at dd-wrt instead.

You can't put an R7000 online on the original firmware without it being almost immediately compromised. That's not hyperbole, that's a fact. If you're not willing to upgrade to something like FreshTomato then walk your ass to the store and get a current-gen supported router. Your whole home network

DD-WRT is okay, the UI is not as nice but has a lot of very low level options and many service options. Doesn't have ipv6 firewall out of the box on R7000. A big problem is it's very unclear what builds are considered stable. IMO Fresh Tomato is much more polished and better for most people. It also

I don't think Netgear can "lock you out" of your router and remove your admin access. If so, that's a big red flag and I'm sure everyone would be spreading this news. Your post is the first time I've heard of it. BTW a "404" error means the website isn't found/page can't be loaded. Perhaps the URL t

Maybe the power supply is crap, half broken OR you're trying to pull too much power from that port. In my experience with all the Netgear routers I've had, including that one, the best course of action is to assume that those ports have zero power and anything connected to them should be externally

Happy users often forget not every case matches theirs. It took seconds to find many posts confirming performance issues. I'm new to Tomato so I'm studying how it may serve me after flashing it to my demoted R6700v3 (close kin to R7000) as a backup so I'm never "one deep" on routers. The horrid bugg

I'll chime in because I haven't seen anyone mention this. We used to have a Netgear Nighthawk router and the 5G would cut out a lot, and it's a common issue. I think one culprit I narrowed it down to years ago was a corrupted QoS table and confirmed by Netgear Technical Support. That's probably not

I’ve learned you have to put Netgear routers on a ups, no if ands or butts. lol simple power surge at your house if your neighborhood goes off will kill it. Ask me how I know. I’ve had nighthawk AC1900 (R7000): Initially released in 2013. Died from power surge no power. X4S (D7800/R7800 series): Rel
