Latest firmware does hot address these issues Netgear Engineering is aware and hopefully working on a Firmware that will address these issues soon atleast that is the hope
I upgraded to the latest firmware last week. I was losing the Internet connection once or twice per week. I now lose the Internet connection multiple times a day. BIG step backwards.

It is definitely not ready for prime time.
