I experienced a bug with the new firmware for the R7500. When I enabled the 2.4 Ghz guest network, it caused the 2.4 Ghz private network to disappear. It wasn't just an issue of the SSID not being broadcast -- it was just gone. This bug did not extend to the 5 Ghz guest and private networks...

I love my R7000, it just doesn't play well with my R7500

Thanks, Bob! If worse comes to worst, I'm about 45 minutes from Netgear HQ and would be able to drop both units off for them to replicate as is.

Thanks Bob!

Hi Bob, Yes, I've installed the latest firmware update for the R7500 and I'm still having the same issues. Do you guys think the issue is with the R7500 or the R7000? [Router] -> [Bridge] -> [Computer] [R7500] -> [EX6200 5GHz FastLane] -> [Desktop] = No issues [R75000] -> [R7000 2.4...

I hate to bump this but I am still having the same issues. I've updated both routers to the most current firmware, switched 5GHz channels, and relocated the R7000 -- all to no avail. I'm at the end of my rope. Does anyone have any ideas?

I'm still having issues on the 5 GHz band. In my usage scenario I am using the R7500 as the main router and an R7000 in bridge mode over 5 GHz. Under these circumstances I am noticing major rubber banding in online FPS games. In this case I am playing Battlefield 4. This does not occur when...

Awesome. I definitely saw issues with the 5GHz band. Here's hoping it gets fixed

Hi Bob, Thanks. I've already spoken with a number of people at Netgear, including the product manager. Everyone has been extremely helpful. Truly. They already have all the details of the situation and I know it's being worked on. When I say 'rubberbanding' I mean that when playing games...

Yeah, I realize that's probably the best solution. I was just hoping someone had maybe found a workaround. Right now I'm still using the R7500 as the main router and the R7000 as the bridge -- albeit over the 2.4 GHz band -- and it seems to work pretty well. On the plus side, the Dynamic QoS...

Has anyone had any experience with an R7500 as the main router and an R7000 as a wireless bridge? I'm having major rubberbanding issues in online FPS in this configuration specifically over the 5 GHz band. It seems fine over the 2.4 GHz band. Interestingly enough, when the R7000 is the main...
