Now and Then: NETGEAR Business Routers

Now and Then: NETGEAR Business Routers

What Happens to EOL Products?

Once a product is EOL, NETGEAR no longer makes it, and it is replaced by a superior product. See What is an EOL product? for details.

This lists EOL routers. For a good replacement, find your router in the left column, then examine the choices to the right. For a complete list of features, see both the Pre-Sales and the Support link.

To find all the Support information, read the Release Notes in Support link. These often describe features added after the product was released.
