Any update to this?
I tried the over the air updates to this latest from the same version.

I have done the same in the past with no luck. I just use Voxel's firmware and I haven't had an issue since. Google it.

I's funny you mention 3rd party firmware, such as Voxel.
Every time we install a Netgear router, we trash their firmware and install DD-WRT. The router is faster, less issues and always has the features one would want.
With that said, my RBK53 system is on 2.5.1.16, and am experiencing no issues whatsoever. Currenty it is not ahowing an update.
