I recommend a factory reset and set up from scratch after applying if problems continue or problems are seen.
Let us know how it works for you...

The only problems I've noticed so far;
The router apps seem a bit more sluggish to load.
The Network Monitoring app hangs about 3-4 seconds after loading. It can no longer be monitored in real-time.
These both seem like memory resource issues.

What browser are you using? Does this happen in FF or Opera?

- Netduma-FraserNetDuma PartnerAlso did you do a factory reset after the upgrade?

I also have the same problem. The entire UI is slow. Some panels will not load at all, such as the large panel on the lower left on the dashboard tab.
- Netduma-FraserNetDuma PartnerSame question and also clear the browser cache/cookies before hand and see if that improves it.
I am using Microsoft Edge (convienent) but I did clear the cache last night before posting...however I'm watching the Network Snapshot and Network Overview pinned on my Dashboard and they seem to be running fine now so IDK. I didn't do a factory reset but if this issue persists I will and I'll keep you posted! Thanks for your response!

Given you are using Edge I suggest you try Firefox or Chrome if you continue to have problems. Edge is compatible but it you run into weird issues like this it's wise going to another browser to see if that resolves the problem

When we going to get a update?
this is ridiculous i have to downgrade my router like almost month and half ago because the V1.0.1.10 have issues even is you turn your router off delete all your settings yesterday i have a update for the android app and still waiting for therouter update this is ridiculous we waste our money in arouter like this and 2 months waiting to fix a issue ???????????????
- Netduma-FraserNetDuma PartnerUnfortunately I can't speculate on when a firmware will be released but I'm sure they're hard at work. Issues like this can be quite tricky to pin down and so require extra resources/time to resolve.

Well if that the case the need to hire somebody that know how to fix this issue because almost 2 months really?
i know for fact that few people like me agree on this..
I should stay with my ASUS Router
