I got the email too, 19th, this is the first time I've beta tested something (for VM), so should be interesting.

All have lifetime prosafe warranties

People here are quick to assume netgear is completely at fault here,

But it could be entirely possible the original netgear base firmware in fact didn't have many bugs and was tested properly... But that it is vm stripping bits out, adding bits in, tweaking it here and there to suit their requirements that has made it unstable in some ways.. Ok the wireless range isn't great, and it's a cheap bit of hardware... But again it was not cha choice of vanity that brought about the shape... Netgears stock product looks completely different.. And without an original to compare aide by side, it could well be vm grinding down the price which has also led to cheaper components being used, and rubbish cheapie internal aerials etc
