Sorry to hear that, so you've downgraded to the previous firmware but it's still an issue? Have you used static IP addresses to see if that resolves it?

Yes - I've downgraded to the previous firmware and have set all my devices to static and am still having the issue. Although downgrading and setting to static did seem to slow down the rate at which it disconnects, but I still haven't made it longer than 45 minutes without all my devices losing connection.
