Installed .34 yesterday.

 

 

Still having iOS drop outs.  Netgear really need to get this sorted.  How hard can it be to test to make sure it works instead of releasing another firmware and cross fingers?

    Hi,

     

    short update from my end.

     

    I am still on .34 and disabled Beamforming. Since then I recognized just one disconnect.

    Has anybody tried the reset?

      to add, it makes no difference to have Beamforming or Mu Mimo on or off.  I have tried all four combinations
