I am noticing also that my wireless printer now does not stay connected to the network. This printer worked flawlessly before. I do have a special character in my connection password.
Also I appear to have computers dropping from the internet. This could conceivably be dropping from the network, or the whole network disconnecting from cable modem. I will research further. I may try going back to a known stable version of the system for my RKR40 router and both RKS40 satellites.
Suggestions appreciated.

I have about 45 devices on my network. Sat/RBS50 isn't showing any connections but I believe thats a known UI issue. I hardwired my backhaul via 1Gbps switch. Also - since I factory reset all settings after installing v2.1.1.16 - I am stable... no reboots in 10 days and counting. Previous to this my RBK50 system was rebooting like nuts.
