GE800 owners left in the dark?
GE800 owners left in the dark?
I have been lurking on these forums reading a lot of everyone's posts/problems for a lot of routers. It seems like every router is getting the new firmware or at least the beta with easymesh, ethernet backhaul and merging of guest/iot/mlo extension, whereas we GE800 users are still suffering with router factory resets and no form of upgrades. This is a very high-end and expensive router yet the BE series and AX series seems to be getting all of the good stuff. Currently using something else in the meantime. There hasn't even been any type of communication on the forums from the engineers, giving any sort of update which makes it that much more frustrating. What's the point of buying the top high-end routers if we are not going to be looked after?
So I guess speaking on behalf of all of us GE800 users, I politely & kindly ask the engineers for an update on when the new firmware that will give us all of these new features, that are being talked about on the forums for the other routers, be available to us? I'm pretty sure a lot of us would even be open to testing the beta out for it.

@xg4ll I unfortunately do not have any information on those particular models as I'm only testing out the GE800 and that too as a regular user like everyone else. But if they have released a firmware for all of them together in the past, I don't see why they can't do it soon when they drop it for the GE800. I believe since they share the GE series name, they too should be able to get updates. I believe it's just a matter of when. Which is the hardest part as communication can definitely be better. There was a post somewhere here that they posted regarding all of the routers that are compatible with the upcoming R3 firmware, so if they are on the list, then it is promised. Wish I had some concrete news for you, but I'm not even sure about the GE800 until I see the update at this point.
