Netgear M4300 - Upgrade Firmware

It has recently come to our attention that older firmware versions of the Netgear M4300 can potentially cause throughput issues with 2.5Gb/ 5Gb links.

Here we see a TCP flow with many retransmissions and a non-optimal throughput.

In order to resolve this issue, the switch should be upgraded to the latest firmware version.
