    I downgraded both satelittes and router to version V2.3.5.30. But still having wifi cut out and the satellites showing up with purple connection (no connection).

     

    Also tried to disable armor but same result.

     

    Any other ideas ? Should I downgrade to another version ? Please help

     

    I consider myself lucky that I am not the guy from Netgear that signed off on a software update that makes wifi unstable just before a period WHERE EVERYBODY IS AT HOME AND NEEDS WIFI!!!!
