New - MK6x series: MR60 / MS60 FW v1.1.6.122 Released
New Features and Enhancements: 11/11/2021
Supports Smart Parental Controls (SPC)
Fixed AirPlay issue while iPhone/iPad and Apple TV are connected to the same node, either MR60 or MS60.
Fixed...
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.
Let us know how it turns out after you revert FW back. I presume to v116?
