R8000 (X6) v R8000P (X6S)

Hi all,

I have just purchased a Netgear R8000P (X6S), confident that I could then flash with Tomato or DD-WRT, but did not notice that little P following the R8000 model name... Does anybody know whether firmware for R8000 will also work on R8000P, or do I have to hope and wait that a release is made specifically for the newer model in the same series?

Thanks

I'm guessing that it may be the same CPU as its predecessor, but with a speed kick, and one big RAM boost. So, maybe worth trying out the R8000 Tomato build on this monster?

I dunno, I'm going to give it a shot. Come what may.
