“Hello, hello.”
00:01
Hey there! How's it going? What can I do for you today?
“Want to check that you can hear me or not?”
00:01
I can hear you loud and clear! Can you hear me okay?
“Yeah, I can hear you. Do you recall our previous conversation?”
00:04
Yes, I do remember our previous conversation. How can I assist you today?
“So I'm thinking to do a full reset of every device essentially in the house. And I was thinking possibly the best place to start would be the router.”
00:12
Starting with the router is a good idea, especially if you suspect network-level compromises. Here's what you can do:
Reset the Router
: Perform a factory reset to clear any potential malicious configurations.
Update Firmware
: After resetting, update the router's firmware to the latest version to patch any security vulnerabilities.
Change Default Credentials
: Set a strong, unique password for the router's admin interface.
Secure Wi-Fi
: Ensure your Wi-Fi network is secured with a strong password and encryption (WPA3 if available).
Monitor Traffic
: Keep an eye on network traffic for any unusual activity.
Would you like detailed steps on how to perform any of these actions?
“No, but what I'm wondering is this particular Netgear router, I believe, has vulnerabilities that have been discovered. I'm wondering, if I give you the model number, if you can check if we can flash it with some sort of better software.”
00:16
Sure, I can help with that. Please provide the model number of your Netgear router, and I'll look up if there are any recommended firmware updates or alternative firmware options.
“Thank you. One second.”
00:01
Take your time! Let me know when you have the model number.
“It's a Nighthawk AX4, the actual model number is AX3000, and specific model RAX40, the V for Victoria, and the number 2.”
00:17
The Netgear Nighthawk AX4 RAX40 V2 has a firmware vers
ion 1.0.16.132. To update it, visit Netgear's support page for the RAX40v2. If you're considering alternative firmware like OpenWrt or DD-WRT, ensure your device is compatible and you follow the specific instructions for flashing it. Always back up your settings before making changes. Let me know if you need more details!

“Yeah, I wanted to see if you can check if there is any alternative software for it, either through OpenWRT or perhaps on GitHub.”
00:09
According to OpenWrt's wiki, the Netgear RAX40 isn't supported by OpenWrt. Similarly, many RAX routers, including the RAX40, aren't compatible with DD-WRT due to chipset limitations. Therefore, it's advisable to stick with the official Netgear firmware for your RAX40 V2. Let me know if you need help with anything else!

“Yes, in addition to the Netgear, I actually also have a TP-Link AC1200 mesh Wi-Fi router system. And what I'm wondering is, is one superior to the other? Or is there a perhaps a way we can utilize both devices to create an even stronger network?”
00:25
Both routers have their strengths. Here’s a quick comparison:
Netgear Nighthawk AX4 RAX40 V2
: This router supports Wi-Fi 6, offering faster speeds and better performance with compatible devices.
TP-Link AC1200 Mesh WiFi System
: This system is designed for broader coverage and can be expanded with additional mesh units. It’s ideal for covering larger areas with consistent signal strength.
Using Both Together
:
Router + Mesh
: You can use the Netgear as the main router and integrate the TP-Link mesh system to extend coverage in areas with weak signals.
Access Point Mode
: If the Netgear router allows, you can set it up as an access point connected to the TP-Link mesh for better performance in specific areas.
Would you like guidance on setting them up together?
“So I live in a one-bedroom apartment, so coverage is not the issue. What I'm really looking for is the most superior strength in terms of avoiding vulnerability.”

Got it! If your main concern is avoiding vulnerabilities, focusing on the router with the most up-to-date security features is key. Here are some tips:
Firmware Updates
: Regularly update the firmware of whichever router you choose to ensure you have the latest security patches.
Wi-Fi 6
: The Netgear Nighthawk AX4 with Wi-Fi 6 generally offers better security features and performance with compatible devices.
Security Settings
: Enable

Security Settings
: Enable the highest level of encryption (WPA3 if available) on your Wi-Fi network to enhance security.
Disable Unnecessary Features
: Turn off features you don’t use, like remote management, to reduce potential attack

or vulnerabilities.
Strong Passwords
: Use strong, unique passwords for your Wi-Fi and router admin interface.
Focusing on these practices will help maximize security. Let me know if you need more assistance!
“I think based on the information you've told me, the Netgear is the one to go with, is that correct?”
00:04
Yes, based on your focus on avoiding vulnerabilities and having the latest security features, the Netgear Nighthawk AX4 RAX40 V2 would be a solid choice. Just make sure to keep its firmware updated and follow best security practices. If you need any help setting it up or configuring it, feel free to ask!
“I want to sort of explain my home setup so that we can configure it.”
00:05
Of course! Feel free to share
“securely as we can. Yeah.”
00:02
Absolutely, let's make sure everything is set up securely. Go ahead and let me know the details of your home setup, and I'll help guide you through the configuration!
“So the main computer I
use is the MacBook, which is the one we discovered the vulnerabilities on yesterday. I also have an iPhone and an iPad Pro, and these are my primary devices. But then I also have three or four Android devices, which I've bought as backups because my devices have been compromised. The Android devices as well have been compromised, so we will need to factory reset them. But for example, when I set up the home Wi-Fi router, that involves installing a Netgear app on a mobile device. So what I was thinking potentially is to install it all on one Android device that we keep off the network rather than installing it, say, on my iPhone, which is always connected to a network, and potentially try and minimize the attempt, like the way it's being hacked. I don't know. Did you get all that?”
01:02
Updated saved memory
Got it! Using a backup Android device that stays off the network for setting up the Netgear app is a smart approach to minimize risks. Here’s a suggested plan:
Factory Reset Android Devices
: Start by factory resetting all Android devices to ensure they are clean.
Install Netgear App
: Install the Netgear app on the Android device that you will keep off the network. This way, the device won't be directly exposed to your main network.
Set Up Router
: Use this isolated device to configure and set up your Netgear router securely.
Keep Device Isolated
: After setup, keep the Android device off the network and only use it for specific tasks that require the app.

“Yes, given the fact that my Gmail was severely compromised and my G-Drive was also obviously gave the hacker all of my files, I'm really reluctant to use Google or Google Sign-In on any of these Android devices. So I'm wondering whether or not there's maybe a better way that I can get apps on them without having to register.”
00:22
I understand your concerns. Here are some options to get apps on your Android devices without using Google:
