Brand and model # of the ethernet and wifi adapters that are connecting to the system?
Same thing happens with newer FW?

Just becuase it's not seen on the RBRs web page, doesn't mean you have the latest. NG sometimes only pushes to small batches of systems or if your system isn't registered in there update database, then your system may not see anything they post or push. I recommend always looking at NGs support download web page or check here in the forums for FW updates.
I've had my 963 series online this past year. No issues seen with v7.2.8.5 loaded on it.
