DuneElliot Posted December 16, 2016 Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 A good reason to be vigilant about updating the firmware of your router every couple of months, and also change the standard "Netgear" name and create a password Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clay L Posted December 16, 2016 Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 Thanks for the info. Netgear has not notified me of this patch but has it listed on their website under "Security" . I downloaded and installed it. I expected to be notified like all my other devices do. I am disappointed in that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I posted a complaint on the Netgear forum yesterday about not getting a notification and I got an email notification today about the issue with a patch download link and instructions on how to install it. Coincidence? Did anyone else get the email? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
