Question 1

Is this a version 2 model? The picture shows a USB 3.0 port which signifies it's a version 2.

Accepted Answer

Although the description and photos indicate a v2, this is *not* a guarantee that you'll get the newer hardware. The -100PAS extension indicates that the packaging and other materials are specialized for the Canadian market, for which there are also v1 and v2 revisions of the hardware. Netgear didn't change the model number when they introduced the v2, leading to much confusion for retailers. For both this and the other listing with the -100NAS extension (ASIN:B0081H8TRA NETGEAR Wireless Router - AC1750 Dual Band Gigabit (R6300)) you will currently receive either the v1 or v2 model, randomly, depending on what gets grabbed off the shelf.

Question 2

Will this router work with the Kindle Fire HDX 8.9?

Accepted Answer

Having just purchased and installed this device, I can connect a laptop, but when I try to connect my Kindle HDX 8.9 OR my windows phone, neither can connect. I have the device setup in WAP mode (wireless access point), and both devices see the connections (both 2.4 and 5), but the windows phone says there is no response and cancels, while the Kindle starts to connect, and then will sit for hours 'getting IP address', 'Authenticating', 'Saved', and then repeat the process over and over again, never connecting, and never stopping to try and connect.I believe there is a problem with the software when placed in WAP mode, but cannot be sure. Cisco support is a complete waste of time, so I am searching the internet for an answer.

Question 3

how far is the range on the netgear n750

Accepted Answer

I just had this router installed by my ISP.  I'm very impressed with it so far.  I have a 2 acre lot around my 3700 square foot house.  It covers the first acre of it at 2.4Ghz and covers the entire house at 5Ghz but doesn't go very far outside.  Of course limited range is one of the things about 5G.

Question 4

Does this Router allow you to set Device by Device restrictions? Like setting up times that devices can use the internet, etc?

Accepted Answer

I think you are referring to MAC Address Filtering, usually used to block wireless devices from even being able to get anywhere near your network (theoretically). I have this same router but V1 and while it used to be called MAC filtering, over the past updates they for some reason made it extremely difficult to find. If this V2 is like my updated V1, it will be called Wireless Card Access List, and it can be found under the Advanced tab, under the categories below that called Advanced Setup and under Wireless Settings. At the bottom of Wireless Settings you will see Wireless Card Access List, there click the button showing Set Up Access List. It's tricky to use. If you have Turn Access Control On checked, then unless that MAC address is on that list, it won't be able to even try to connect and you won't see it attempting. As long as you have the MAC address from the wifi device then this being ON is find and you can proceed to add it to the list. If you don't know the MAC you may need to uncheck that box and go out and back into the router for the list to update and it show you the MAC to the device you are trying to add. Not idea but a work around. Like I said, for some reason Netgear made MAC Address Filtering way too difficult. Maybe the V2 is completely different than this, but I'd imagine it's the same sadly. Hope this helps you.
