The instruction to power off after updating manually seems redundant? Everything works fine since updating without the power off. Is it really needed?

Is there if you want to do that. Long experience and personal methods, doing a power cycle doesn't hurt anything. If you don't experience any issues, then continue. If you, first try the power cycle.

First days experience so far is it's a solid update from the previous two versions. Stable and smooth. Everything tested so far is running great - Ethernet connection, Wifi devices, Desktop, Laptop, Smart phone, Netflix and IPTV, etc. Haven't encountered any DNS issues either so far. Might check back in a few days.

my router and sat auto updated today when I rebooted - overall this version is looking very stable versus the previous builds
additionally, speeds tests are about 150% faster than previous versions (450mbps vs 300mbps)
