- I've sent you a PM with firmware that may resolve the issue.
Yes it was released a few days ago, has quite a few new features and fixes. They will post a change log when they put it on the knowledge base but for now it's only available by checking on the router itself.
Okay. cool beans. Ill have to install it when i get home. I have my QOS turn off at the time cause it seems the router performs better for me with is off but i do still use the GEO-FILTER. after i install the new firmware ill turn QOS back on and give it another try. When QOS is on seems like it slows down my internet more than anything.

- Share excess is in Bandwidth Allocation options. Throttling I'm referring to having your Anti-Bufferbloat percentages too low meaning your speeds are heavily affected.
