I’m a brand new owner and highly disappointed with the connection drops. I’d like to assist in firmware testing if needed before I hit the “return to Costco” option. I’m an IT guy, but not a network specialist. I’m listening here for options.
My firmware is 2.0.1.4. I just wasn’t sure on how to get the beta versions because (probably for good reason) they aren’t typically available. I haven’t adjusted any settings so unless they options you mentioned are on by default they should be off. I’ll explore more.

Can ask NG support. Sometimes they might have something for a beta.
