STILL waiting for this LOOOOONG overdue Firmware Update!
I used the Jetpack for about a week last month, while I was on vacation, and no Firmware Updates became available at all during that time.
I just used the Jetpack for an hour or so today and checked for Updates, again with no luck.

And in the meantime, my AC791L sits in a box, waiting for an update to be issued that will (hopefully) fix the numerous bugs and make it the device it was intended to be all along. :smileysad:
