Dates and sources

The maker’s announced end date (October 2025) stays, but the maker released firmware afterwards (January 2026), so this page doesn’t say fixes have stopped.

Key dates

Release
January 2018 · estimate
How I calculated it: This router was first sold in mesh kits. NETGEAR's end-of-service product list (September 2026 file) dates the first shipment of the RBK22 kit (item RBK22-100NAS), the earliest kit with this router in the list, to January 2018 (column 'first_xf_date'). NETGEAR gives no launch date for the router, so the launch month is estimated from it.
Last update
January 13, 2026 · version 2.7.6.6
End of support
October 1, 2025 · vendor notice
Note: NETGEAR's end-of-service list (September 2026 file) dates each item number (SKU) separately. This router was sold alone and in the RBK20, RBK22 and RBK23 kits. This is the latest US date among those items (RBK23-100NAS, 1 October 2025). Other items ended earlier, the first in 2020.
