In the case of this particular router, using TFTP to load any of the BS factory-to-ddwrt.img files does not work. I even went back and tried a few other builds just to see if they would work after 46 ...

I only know of that feature existing on R7800, R7500v2, EA8500 or R9000.

Is it available on the R7800? That was one of the things I was hoping to play with when I purchased one recently, but do not ...

But it sounds like bad blocks what is dmesg telling you? (run from CLI (telnet/putty) )

Have you tried to TFTP directly a factory-to-ddwrt.img?

I haven't tried it that way. This might be a dumb question, but I'd rather ask it up front. Would there be any reason that recovering back to ...

Restore the R7800 back to stock firmware using the attached firmware (originally provided by Kong to revert back to stock. Other methods sometime cause bootloops)

This is a Thailand unit (Model 272-12536-01)

I'll also add that when it arrived, it was running the latest stock NG firmware (V1.0.2.80). The couple times I had to use TFTP recovery, I used V1.0.2. ...

In comparing the R7000 the R7800, consider the types of clients on your network (Broadcom, Atheros, etc.)

I have read that issues may arise in mixing these. I doubt that you would ever have a compl ...

You are aware of that the 5Ghz on the R7500v1 does not work?

At all?

One other tidbit.

While reading about the other netgear routers in the 7000 series. I discovered that the R7500 (X4)(v2 for sure, and i think v1 also) has 4 antennas with 4x4 stream capable 5ghz, b ...
