I tried connecting back my Chromecasts and Google Homes but they still keep flooding the network. The result is that the sats disconnect. Looks like we need Google to fix that part of the problem.

Been on 2.1.2.10 for around 2 week san no issues until about 24 hours ago and constant drops again. Thought this beta had sirted things.
Have updated to the new .18 and crossing my fingers.

How long for a Chromecast/Android fix Netgear? TP-link, Linksys, and others have already gotten it fixed

Updated to 2.1.2.18 just a few minutes ago. I used the online update instead of the manual update and it appeared to work fine. Both sat's showed as connected.
Clicking on the device list showed both sat's but one is in 'Config Sync' state. I pushed the sync button with no change in status. Did a POR (power on reset) and waited and now it is good.
Thank you for the updated firmware - fingers crossed that this one is solid.
