Update went smooth, I’m using only Rbr850.

Despite I had only thin brick walls my iPad was constantly switching to 2.4Ghz, with this firmware I finally managed it to stick to 5Ghz(using iOT network).

I was hoping with this release to be able to disable band steering and separate SSIDs and enable some other channels than 36-48. I think Those features will not be available until unit gets Openwrt support 😉

Overall very happy with update and stability of release.
