why did you upgrade your firmware?
I upgraded because of the reboots...
Have you powered OFF the ISP Modem fully for 30 seconds the back on along with the RBR? Then power ON the Modem and let it sync, then power on the RBR?
What channels are your neighbors using?
This isn't a FW issue, rather something on the RBR or between the RBR and modem.
