RBR50/RBS50 Firmware 2.5.1.16 Update
Latest firmware v2.5.1.16 on RBK53 in AP mode. No new surprises yet. Everything seems to be in order and working. If you took the plunge, please share your experiences.

Update working for me. Strange issue is the Satellites no longer can determine the attached devices names. They only show IP and MAC addresses of attached devices, yet the router knows and displays them. The satellites displayed the device names before the update.
Still annoying that attached devices can be sorted when being displayed. Seems a simple programming task to be able to sort the list...

Something to contact NG support about and let them know. Seems like they keep fixing this, then it break again after another update or two.
I wonder if v4 or v70 have fix the device naming issue yet.

They do care about end usersI believe you meant to say "They do NOT care about end users". Their customer support is the absolute worst in the industry. I suggest everyone file their complaint with the Better Business Bureau, my complaint is filed with the BBB and is still pending NG's response.
