HomeKit still broken.
Back to 2.1.2.18.
Your next update should really include the 'no update' option. :)
30-40 minutes of my time to roll back every time is getting tiresome.

When I updated my RBK50 (both router and satellite) to 2.1.3.4 I reset everything but still had issues with the satellite. When the RBW30 2.1.3.6 firmware was released I updated those, reset and added to the RBK50 router and was goind relatively well. A few drops here and there but nothing major.
I then updated the router to 2.1.4.10 via the web gui upgrade and both RBW30's now drop in and out a lot so have turned them off until a 2.1.4.x update is available for those. I am not resetting everything again as have had enough of doing that and as per various comments updating from 2.1.3.4 to 2.1.4.10 via an upgrade instead of using BETA software shouldn't require a full reset again.
I tested again with the RBK50 satellite (RBS50), updated, reset it and connected but as I noticed before bugger all devices will connect to it and continue to connect to the router so have just swtiched that off as no point wasting electric.
will await RBW30 firmware before testing those again.
