Issues so far in order of appearance: (i updated the firmware as they would come out - I believe I received it with V1.0.1.2)
List of issues:
1) Devices would disconnect and reconnect (1st month of use)
2) The router would reboot itself constantly (at least twice a day) (second month of use)
3) Updated to the latest firmware = 70% of my devices can't connect to it (Amazon EchoDot, etc) (third month of use)
and now, the worst one of all:
4) a simple reboot resets to factory default settings! No matter what firmware I use.
Does anyone have any idea on how to solve this before I trash it?
ps - I've done all the obvious and million factory resets and firmware upgrades and downgrades. Currently back to V1.0.1.2. - issues number 1, 2 and 4 still present.
THANK YOU!
