    After updating and reboot, screen hung on redirect.  After waiting 10mins, I went to the router home address and tried to log back in.  After entering user/pw, the router threw this error:

     

    Tried just turning the router off and back on and got same result.  Decided to factory reset, and I got a partial wizard that allowed me to set things up at least.  Then the redirect threw this error again.

     

    I now cannot get into the router to modify any settings, and apparently factory reset doesn't restore the firmware version.  Been on hold with 24/7 support in queue for over 30 mins now.  I guess at least I have internet access and the wi-fi setup worked so I have that too.  But outside of that I can't set ANYTHING else.  This is thoroughly disappointing!!

     

    Edit: Confirmed I used the correct firmware for my router version.  Attempted login using a private browsing window and no errors.  Something changed in the firmware versions that one of my browser extensions was blocking and wouldn't open in a regular window.  Am able to access all settings now. 😊
