RBR50 - Have You Installed V2.7.2.104
If you have, how did it go?

I installed it via the web update interface, and no issues so far with a 12 day uptime.

Thanks
that's about 5 weeks after it first became available
possibly time for netgear to fix any previous issues

I'm now at 13 days with no problems. Sort of wish I had taken the time to do a complete "config from scratch" rather than save config, Factory Reset, and reload config. Who knows what "cobwebs" remain?

I believe the failure rate is higher for those who upgraded as soon as it became available as advertised by a certain guru

Could be since we can't see the actual build number. I was running 2.7.2.102 for some time prior to updating to .104 (my router automatically updated to that version at some point), but due to issues I had updating to version 2.5.1.16 I didn't want to upgrade to .104 until my work schedule allowed me time to troubleshoot and so forth if the upgrade went awry.
I did notice a substantial increase in my Wi-Fi speeds after I got my system fully updated to .102 (the satellite didn't automatically update; only the router), and I've seen no change in that after the .104 update.

Tell us more about how your router automatically updated as you state above
