Firmware V1.12.0.18 Discussion

This does indeed appear to be based on (identical to?) the last private beta V1.12.0.16 and has been released to the public.  Hope it helps!   Guest mode AP isolation finally works 100% over IPv4...

If you are not having any issues then I would suggest leaving things as they are. If you are having issues, I would suggest trying the instructions I posted a few pages back regarding erasing NVRAM settings and manually restoring default firmware settings. After that you can reconfigure everything to taste, but avoid the Speedtest or modifying any QoS settings.

OK - I may take this plunge.  I have a ton of IP reservations set by MAC addresses - is there any way to impor those without reconfiguring everything manually?  Thats the main reason I havent taken this step.  Like some 60+ reservations tied to port forwarding.

Wish I had better news, but I'm unaware of a way to back those up on their own.
