Will there be a firmware upgrade to 1.02.21 for Netgear C6300?
I recently purchased a Netgear C6300 modem. I'm very happy with it. One of the reasons was that the device supports Linux/UNIX file systems on its USB port. Unfortunately, I discovered that it requires firmware version 1.02.21 (the latest as far as I'm aware). For a while, the device supports Linux file systems as indicated in the docs. But then it all of a sudden stopped being able to read them. Exchanging the modem for another new one at BestBuy yielded the same result. This time though, I realized the device ships with firmware version 1.02.21. However, as inane as it sounds, it seems that Cox is reprogramming the modem with an earlier version, specifically 1.02.20. After that, my Ext2/Ext3/XFS flash drives stop being read. I really would like this feature. (I saw another person here in the forum ask about 1.02.21 last Nov.) Is there 1.02.21 in the pipeline? Is there anything else I can do besides sit tight?2.9KViews1like3Comments
