The RBR50 V2.7.4.24 apparently causes some SMTP delay issues.
I have an HP Laserjet MF that allows me to scan to email. It basically pushes the scan to an SMTP server. After upgrading to the 2.7.4.24 firmware, I noticed it that took 15-30 min (or more) to get a scan delivered to email. Issue happened with outlook, O365 and gmail (both with 2 step verification enabled/disabled). The HP Laserjet display showed that it keeps connecting to the SMTP server...
Problem disappeared when downgrading to V2.7.3.22.
Does somebody know what setting could be causing this issue? Or is this is a known V2.7.4.24 software/firmware issue?
Thanks

What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Did you factory reset and setup from scratch after applying v.24 FW to the system?

The ISP coax modem is a Compal CH7465LG HGW 3.0 (via Telenet / Liberty Global in Belgium).
No, I didn't perform a factory reset because I preferred not to through the hassle of reconnecting all devices etc.
Thanks

If you use same SSID name and password on the wifi settings after you factory reset the RBR, you wifi devices should re-connect automatically to the system. Even the RBS will reconnect.
