Firmware update V1.3.0.12
Anybody else get this tonight? I just checked for an update and V1.3.0.12 showed up and downloaded. Up and running, just not sure what it did. Looks like the webpage isn't updated yet. 🤔

I think this was a deliberate implementation to stop people from raising questions on how/which router/satellite devices connect to.

From the debug page, you can check "Enable advanced view of Attached Devices page", which will bring the old (split router/satellite) view back.
It also now indicates which radio (2.4GHz or 5GHz) the device is connected to, which is nice!
Not sure why on earth this is buried on a hidden debug page - why not put it under advanced/administration?

totally agree and the same for telnet
im not sure why they chose to hide ether at this stage as it makes no sense and just makes ppl angry and more frustrated than they already are
