I am experiencing dropouts on both wired and unwired. I am going to go back to the stable .21 firmware as it was completely stable.

I would factory reset and setup from scratch. I saw 30 days good solid up time with no issues on my 850 series on this version of FW.

        One thing I’ve noticed on the router debug page is that CPU utilization is now (around 6%), which is roughly half of what it was before on the previous firmware (around 12%). Interestingly, both satellites are still showing (about 12%) CPU utilization as they were before on the previous firmware. Just thought I’d mention it.

      Factory reset both RBR and RBS and then updated to the new version. Seems okay.

        Good to hear. Mine ran for a full good 30 days with out issues. Wireless then Ethernet BH. 

        Sans the IPv6 problem for some, seems to be good for those that don't require IPv6 features. đź‘Ť
