New - MK6x series: MR60 / MS60 FW v1.1.6.122 Released

Let us know how it turns out after you revert FW back. I presume to v116?

I've also had a number of issues with the latest v1.1.6.122 firmware.

No support available via NG so just adding my frustration to this thread.  Brief overview....

MR60 + 2 x MS60 (running from Virgin Router running in Modem Mode).
- App cannot perform SpeedTest. Minor.
- I'm almost certain a MAC Address on 1 Satellite has changed. Minor.
- Reserved MAC/IP for one Satellite being ignored. Minor.
- PC running Sonos App reporting 'not enough bandwidth and keeps disconnecting from Sonos speaker - satellite/PC/Speaker all in same room within 2m radius. Annoying.
- Occasional (4 or 5 times daily) outright internet dropouts, or blips killing VPN connection.  Response over VPN when active seems more sluggish.

Please note a lot of the above is quite vague and not looking for assistance.  As I have no recourse through Support I just wanted to add to the thread to raise the issue which as has been stated already - *** At this moment in time you would be wise NOT to upgrade to this firmware *** ...definitely NOT if you work from home :)

I must confess that I am not overly surprised and have never been particularly impressed with NG/Firmware however that is my fault for talking this route and not Draytek for example.  Hey ho - now rolling back the firmware, happy days.

Apologies for the delay in updating however I wanted to leave this a while to give a fair appraisal of reverting to V1.0.6.116.

The process of reverting was somewhat painful as these things generally are under NG however I can now happily report that the ONLY problem I previously reported that I still have an issue with is the SpeedTest under the App which is still refusing to play ball.  This would suggest this was not related to the new firmware after all - not something I use frequently so not a problem for me anyway.

I must vent however - my saved settings under the latest firmware (v1.1.6.122) did not reload after reverting to V1.0.6.116 and factory resetting.  Also trying to re-configure the LAN setup i.e. naming devices, reserving IP addresses, assigning a higher IP address range all proved painful ....

- identify attached devices by assigning device names etc sometimes lost the details I updated.

- trying to reserve an ip address for a previously named device threw errors - device name was too long although it was accepted previously.

- multiple devices being assigned the same IP address!!!

- unreserved devices being assigned an ip address below the DNS IP address range of 100+.

These are all problems I've had countless times before on different firmware versions.  I'm a software developer so I it never ceases to amaze me how NG can get the fundamentals so wrong, and care so little!  Happy Days :)
