Has anyone got AP mode to work on SXK80, with FW 3.2.6.102?

Hey all,        Has anyone had any luck getting the SXK80 set (SXR80 router, w/ 1 SXS80 satellite) working in AP mode?  I figured I'd try again on the new firmware (3.2.6.102), but no joy.  It work...

    I experienced some issues with these units as well, I started out with FW 3.2.6.100 in router mode (with insight linked) but when putting the SXR80 in AP mode behind my x86 router I was getting all kind of odd issues, in the end I had to unlink it from insight and used the hard factory reset point on the back of the SXR80 and reset it up via the web portal (the factory reset in the web portal also didnt fix the issue for me)

     

    I can also see there is a new 3.3.0.122 for the SXR80/SXS80  with some AP fixes in it so this may fix your issues as well!
