    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.90SF

    this update seems to have broken the QoS device priority settings.

    NETGEAR’s CES 2018 Announcements:

    i'm interested in this router purely for the firmware aspects. can I get the same geofilter functionality on an r7800 or any other router? I "game" so like to avoid matchmaking with people in Australia.
